Abstract: The present invention relates to a complex surgical device for carrying out an anastomosis in the intestine including: a—a protective device (5) comprising an anchor element consisting of a stent (1) and a flexible outer sheath (2), and b—an introducer (10) comprising at least a first deformable guide tube (12), characterized in that the downstream end of said outer sheath is connected to said first guide tube (12) or to a first connecting piece (11), said outer sheath (2) being folded inside said first deformable guide tube (12), said stent being held in radial compression inside said first deformable guide tube.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for processing image data generated by a medical imaging device such as an ultrasound or echocardiogram device and processing the image data using artificial intelligence and machine learning to determine a presence of one or more congenital heart defects (CHDs) and/or other cardiovascular anomalies in the image data. The image processing system may be used to detect CHDs and/or other cardiovascular anomalies in a fetus. The image data may be processed using a spatiotemporal convolutional neural network (CNN). The spatiotemporal CNN may include a spatial CNN for image recognition and a temporal CNN for processing optical flow data based on the image data. The outputs of the spatial CNN and the temporal CNN may be fused (e.g., using late fusion) to generate a likelihood of CHDs and/or other cardiovascular anomalies.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for aiding the detection and diagnosis of critical heart defects during fetal ultrasound examinations, in which motion video clips are analyzed with machine learning algorithms to identify and select within the motion video clips image frames that correspond to standard views recommended by fetal ultrasound guidelines, and selected image frames are analyzed with machine learning algorithms to detecting and identify morphological abnormalities indicative of critical CHDs associated with the standard views. The results of the analyses are presented for review to the clinician with an overlay for the selected image frames that identifies the abnormalities with graphical or textual indicia. The overlay further may be annotated by the clinician and stored to create documentary record of the fetal ultrasound examination.
