Abstract: The non-invasive pulsatile circulatory support device intended to promote circulation of a blood volume in at least a part (Z) of a subject's body, the device including a flexible structure, arranged so as to be applied on at least the part of the subject's body, including a series of paired adjacent pouches extending along one another; and means for generating a physiologically synchronised pulsation fluidically connected to the flexible structure in a leak-tight manner and arranged so as to create pulsation waves in the series of pouches between the inner and outer layers, one of the paired adjacent pouches at least partially covering the other of the paired adjacent pouches (scaled structure).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for recognising, measuring and quantitatively determining at least one exogenous substance in an endogenous liquid. According to the invention, the device comprises: —a means for suctioning (1) an endogenous liquid containing at least one exogenous substance; —a means for collecting (2) the endogenous liquid containing at least one exogenous substance; —a spectrometer (3), preferably a Raman or infrared spectrometer, capable of acquiring and analysing said collected liquid; —a database-type data storage means comprising spectra relating to at least one exogenous substance; —a means for comparison between the spectrum or spectra acquired and the spectrum or spectra of the database; —a means (4) for controlled introduction of at least one exogenous substance into the endogenous liquid, as a function of the result of said comparison. The invention also relates to the method implemented by such a device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a non-invasive pulsatile circulatory assistance device encouraging the circulation of a volume of blood in a subject's body, wherein the device includes a flexible multilayer structure for applying against at least a portion of the subject's body, the structure having a flexible inner layer beside the subject's body and a more rigid outer layer; means for pulsating connected to the multilayer structure in such a manner that the assembly having the structure plus the pulsation means is leaktight, and wherein the pulsation means are adapted to create pulsations between the inner and outer layers by means of a fluid referred to as a “pulsation” fluid, each of the pulsations propagating progressively in the venous return direction along the portion of the subject's body when the structure is placed on the portion of the subject's body.

Abstract: The invention relates to a single-use device, intended to be used in surgery each time a vascular approach by cannulation or catheterization (extracorporeal circulation, anesthesia, emergency, intensive care) is found to be necessary, in particular in heart surgery or interventional cardiology. This new device essentially includes a body (5), a sealing system consisting of two inflatable disks (4), a control connector for inflating and deflating the disk (4), a tubular unit (6) and a flexible guide (1).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a non-invasive pulsatile circulatory assistance device encouraging the circulation of a volume of blood in a subject's body, the device being characterized in that it comprises: a flexible multilayer structure for applying against at least a portion of said subject's body, said structure comprising a flexible inner layer (102) beside said subject's body and a more rigid outer layer (104); and means for pulsating connected to said multilayer structure in such a manner that the assembly comprising the structure plus the pulsation means is leaktight, the device being characterized in that said pulsation means are adapted to create pulsations between said inner and outer layers by means of a fluid referred to as a “pulsation” fluid, each of said pulsations propagating progressively in the venous return direction along said portion of said subject's body when said structure is placed on said portion of said subject's body.
