A monitor device for a medical visualisation system including a visualisation device having an image sensor configured to generate image data indicative of a view, the monitor device including a display; a graphical user interface; and a power unit including a rechargeable battery and a power connection to connect an external power supply, the monitor device being operable to receive the image data as the image data is being generated by the image sensor, wherein the monitor device displays within a first portion of the graphical user interface a live representation of the image data, and wherein the monitor device displays a battery indicator indicative of a remaining charge of the rechargeable battery, wherein the battery indicator indicates an expected remaining battery time if the visualisation device is not connected and a measured power consumption if the visualisation device is connected.

An apparatus and computerized method accurately distinguishes VT and SWCT without the need for manual ECG, electrogram (EMG) and/or vectorcardiogram (VCG) interpretation or calculation. The apparatus and computerized method provides three types of wide complex beat differentiation that can be automatically implemented using data provided by ECG, EMG and/or VCG interpretation software. The first type is based in whole or in part on a WCT Formula. The second type is based in whole or in part on a VT prediction model. The third type is based in whole or in part on an analysis of ventricular repolarization (e.g., T wave).

A plasmapheresis system and a method for operating a plasmapheresis system are provided by which a volume of plasma product (i.e., anticoagulated plasma) so that that the targeted volume of pure plasma in the plasma product is determined based on donor-specific characteristics. In particular, the targeted amount of pure plasma to be collected is based on the weight, or the weight and the height, of the donor. The targeted volume of pure plasma to be collected, TVP, may be a multiple of the donor's weight. Alternatively, TVP may be a multiple of the donor's total blood volume, TBV, with the TBV of the donor being determined based on the donor's weight and height. A target volume for the plasma product to be collected, TVPP, is established, and separation of whole blood into a plasma component and a second component continues until the volume of plasma product in a collection container equals TVPP.

A modular endoscope system comprises a first modular section comprising imaging and illumination units, and a patient-insertable second modular section that can be detached to the first modular section via an attachment mechanism, wherein the first modular section is positionable at a distal end section of the second modular section and is configured to illuminate and image a portion of a patient anatomy. A method of using a modular endoscopy system comprises attaching a first modular section of the modular endoscopy system to a second modular section of the modular endoscopy system, positioning at least a portion of the modular endoscopy system within a patient, illuminating and imaging a portion of a patient anatomy via the first modular section, removing the modular endoscopy system from the patient, and detaching the second modular section from the first modular section after removal of the modular endoscopy system from the patient.

A modular endoscopy system comprises a first modular section comprising control and navigation functionality, and a patient-insertable second modular section user-detachably connectable to the first modular section via an attachment mechanism, wherein the first modular section is positionable at a proximal end section of the second modular section and is configured to steer and bend a portion of the second modular section. A method of using a modular endoscopy system comprises attaching a first modular section of to a second modular section of the modular endoscopy system, positioning a portion of the modular endoscopy system within a patient, steering a portion of the second modular section to an anatomy location of the patient via the first modular section, removing the modular endoscopy system from the patient, and detaching the second modular section from the first modular section after removal of the modular endoscopy system from the patient.

Techniques for aligning a medical instrument for percutaneous access to a location within the human anatomy can include determining an orientation of the medical instrument, determining a target location within the human anatomy, and determining a target trajectory for percutaneous access of the target location. Further, the techniques can include causing display of an interface that includes an instrument-alignment element indicative of an alignment of the orientation of the medical instrument to the target trajectory.
