Abstract: A catheter configured to dynamically compensate for the impact of internal and external forces that act upon the catheter during use is disclosed. The catheter may include sensors configured to measure received forces on control cables that extend within the catheter. A controller, coupled to the sensors, may record received force measurements associated with a working position of a distal end of the catheter. The controller may monitor subsequently received forces to identify force variances that may deflect the distal end of the catheter from its working position and may apply a driving force to one or more of the control cables to minimize the force variances. Monitoring received forces during use and applying compensating drive forces may reduce deflection of the distal end of the catheter, increasing the accuracy and precision of an annuloplasty procedure while minimizing potential damage to cardiac tissue.

Abstract: A wound treatment system includes a housing. A processor is located in the housing. A pressure monitoring system is coupled to the processor. A power delivery system is located in the housing and coupled to the processor. An oxygen concentrator is located in the housing and coupled to the power delivery system. The oxygen concentrator includes a plurality of oxygen outlets. The processor is configured to receive pressure information from the pressure monitoring system that is indicative of a pressure in a restricted airflow enclosure provided by a dressing and located adjacent a wound site; and use the pressure information to control the power provided from the power delivery system to the oxygen concentrator in order to control an oxygen flow created by the oxygen concentrator and provided through one of the plurality of oxygen outlets to the restricted airflow enclosure.

Abstract: A wound treatment system includes a processor coupled to sensor system(s), a power delivery system, an oxygen concentrator coupled to the power delivery system and including an oxygen outlet coupled to a restricted airflow enclosure provided by a dressing and located adjacent a wound site, and a negative pressure system that includes a negative pressure outlet coupled to the restricted airflow enclosure. The processor receives first sensor information from the sensor system(s), and uses the first sensor information to control the power provided from the power delivery system to the oxygen concentrator in order to control an oxygen flow created by the oxygen concentrator and provided through the oxygen outlet to the restricted airflow enclosure. When the processor receives second sensor information from the sensor system(s), it activates the negative pressure system to create a fluid flow from the restricted airflow enclosure and through the negative pressure outlet.

Abstract: A wound oxygen supply system includes a chassis that defines an oxygen outlet. an oxygen production subsystem is included in the chassis and coupled to the oxygen outlet. A control subsystem is coupled to the oxygen production subsystem and configured to receive humidity information that is indicative of a humidity experienced by the oxygen production subsystem. The control system then uses the humidity information to control power provided to the oxygen production subsystem in order to control an oxygen flow that is created by the oxygen production subsystem and provided through the oxygen outlet to a restricted airflow enclosure adjacent a wound site.
