The present invention relates to a method for implanting a device for treating an aneurysm of a patient. The method involves cutting the skin of said patient, dissecting an area of a blood vessel having the aneurysm, placing an implantable member in connection with the outside of the blood vessel having the aneurysm to exercise a pressure on the outside of the blood vessel having the aneurysm and placing a measuring device or sensor in connection in the body of the patient, wherein the measuring device or sensor is configured to measuring or sensing an expansion of the aneurysm.

A system for controlling a tourniquet pressure may have a processing unit and a non-transitory computer-readable memory communicatively coupled to the processing unit and comprising computer-readable program instructions executable by the processing unit. The system may obtain ultrasound readings indicative of a blood flow in a limb having a tourniquet applying pressure on the limb; determine characteristic(s) of the blood flow from the ultrasound readings; and adjust a tourniquet pressure as a function of the at least one characteristic of the blood flow. An integrated robotic surgery system is also provided.

The present invention relates to a device for treating an aneurysm of a human or mammal patient, wherein the aneurysm may self expand, leading to the aneurysm bursting with high risk for death of the human or mammal patient. The device is provided with an implantable member to be placed in connection with the outside of a blood vessel having the aneurysm, and to exercise a pressure on the outside of the blood vessel having the aneurysm, a measuring device or sensor for measuring or sensing an expansion of the aneurysm, and a monitoring system for monitoring the expansion of the aneurysm based on a signal received from the measuring device or sensor.

In a system, device and method for treating an aneurysm of a human or mammal patient an implantable member adapted to hold fluid is provided. The member is adapted to be placed in connection with a blood vessel having the aneurysm and to exercise a pressure on the aneurysm of said blood vessel.

The invention includes a transradial introducer sheath support and integral hemostasis device. The device includes a wristband and an introducer sheath support mount attached to the wristband. The wristband is made from a flexible and resilient material that is applied to the distal forearm of the patient or other desired location on the patient. The support mount may be a molded unitary structure, such as made from a thermoplastic material, and is attached directly to the outer surface of the wristband. An inflatable hemostatic element is incorporated in the wristband and mounted to an interior surface of the wristband. The hemostatic element may be selectively inflated to apply pressure to a radial access point of the patient during and after removal of the transradial introducer sheath from the patient. Another embodiment provides a hemostatic element by a rotatable clasp of the sheath support mount.

The present disclosure provides for specific shapes and combinations of the compression members amenable to the safest, yet most effective compression of the carotid and vertebral arteries aimed at prevention of embolic stroke. An associated method of achieving an optimal compression of said arteries for the purpose of stroke prevention is provided.

A device for use in preventing stroke is provided. The device may include an expandable member that expands from a non-expanded configuration to an expanded configuration. The expandable member is located at a neck of a patient. An associated method is provided.

The invention relates to a device and a method for stopping bleeding at the puncture sites of vessels of patients undergoing an extracorporeal treatment, in particular dialysis. The device has a controller which controls the introduction of fluid into an expandable chamber arranged on a strip-shaped basic element and/or draining from the chamber. The invention also relates to an evaluation unit having at least one sensor for measuring the degree of filling of the chamber. Furthermore, the invention relates to a medical technical treatment unit as an arrangement of a hemodialysis machine and the device.

A device for the prevention of stroke is provided that has a processor, a compression system, a compression member, and a vascular probe carried by the compression member. The vascular probe senses a parameter of a circulation system from a closed neck artery that is not being externally accessed. The processor processes the closed parameter and based upon this processing communicates with the compression system to instruct the compression system to actuate the compression member. The compression member and vascular probe are external to the interior of the patient when the vascular probe senses the closed parameter of the circulation system.

The present invention proposes a wearable blood pressure measurement and antihemorrhagic device comprising a tightening system adapted to tighten a tightening device on or around the region of interest, wherein the tightening system is adapted to be automatically adjusted in one of a plurality of fastening positions, and one of a processor or control circuitry to control the tightening system. The present invention also proposes a method of measuring blood pressure for measuring at least one of the following: the systolic pressure and/or diastolic pressure of a user, the device comprising such a tightening device, wherein the tightening device is placed on a region of interest to measure at least one of the following: the systolic pressure and/or diastolic pressure, and a blood sensor placed on one side of the tightening system, wherein the blood sensor is, for example, a PPG sensor.
