The Oxford Optical Pointer: a direction-sensing device with proportional electrical output

For some disabled people pointing provides a more convenient means of communication and control than the use of switches. The quadriplegic who retains good control of head movement can be provided with a number of input alternatives, but no existing system meets all the requirements of a general-purpose electronic pointing device. Consequently the Oxford Optical Pointer has been developed. The principle by which it converts relative direction into analogue electrical signals is described and its application as a head-mounted device for controlling an electric wheelchair is presented.     

Magnum system for routine coronary angioplasty: A randomized study

The Magnum system, initially designed for coronary angioplasty (PTCA) of chronic total occlusion, consists of a balloon catheter and a solid steel 0.021 inch (0.53 mm) steerable and removable wire with a soft and moldable distal portion, tipped with a 1 mm olive. To evaluate its performance in routine PTCA, 200 unselected consecutive patients were randomized to two equal groups, i.e., group Magnum (100 patients, 115 vessels) and group Standard (100 patients, 118 vessels) including 18 and 21 patients with chronic total occlusions, respectively. Randomization was performed by the sealed envelope system in the catheterization laboratory and crossover of system was imposed if it was not possible to place a balloon correctly within 20 min of fluoroscopy time. There were no significant differences between groups concerning clinical and angiographic baseline characteristics, size of initial balloons (3.0±0.3 mm in both groups), fluoroscopy time to cross the lesion with the wire (Magnum: 4±5, Standard: 5±6 min), total fluoroscopy time (Magnum: 11 ± 9, Standard: 12±12 min), and need for crossover (Magnum: 10%, Standard: 16%). Success rates per lesion were comparable with 90% in group Magnum and 84% in group Standard, as were the complications with one inhospital death in group Standard, occurring three weeks after PTCA and stent implantation. There was no emergency operation. Six patients per group had myocardial infarction of whom two in group Magnum and one in group Standard developed a Q-wave. The following variables were significantly in favor of the Magnum system compared with the Standard system: success rate in nontotal lesions (97% versus 90%) crossover success in total occlusions (0 vs. 33%), fluoroscopy time to cross the lesion with the balloon once the wire was in place (1 ± 2 vs. 2 ± 4 min), and use of a single versus 1.2±0.5 wires per lesion. The only advantage of the Standard systems was the more common use of 7 French guiding catheters (Magnum: 40%, Standard: 53%, p = 0.09). The Magnum system compares favorably with standard systems for routine PTCA. The robust design of the Magnum wire does not impair ease of placement and safety but saves material and facilitates balloon advancement across the lesion.

Endocardial catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in patients with ventricular assist devices

BACKGROUND: The outcomes of patients with ventricular assist devices (VADs) who undergo catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia (VT) have not been reported. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of endocardial VT ablation in patients with VADs. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed three cases at our institution where endocardial catheter ablation was performed in patients with VADs and incessant VT. RESULTS: Three patients with underlying cardiomyopathies and VADs underwent VT ablation for incessant VT refractory to multiple antiarrhythmic medications. In each case, VT was either eliminated or significantly ameliorated by catheter ablation. No procedure-related complications occurred. The hemodynamic stability afforded by the VAD played an important role in facilitating ablation in two of the cases. CONCLUSION: Catheter ablation for VT in VAD patients appears to be feasible, safe, and effective based on our initial experience. Several technical issues, such as decreases in ventricular volumes that can limit maneuverability of the ablation catheter and potential entrapment of the mapping catheter in the inflow cannula, need to be considered at the time of ablation.     

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a patient with a biventricular cardiac assist device.

Evaluation and management of abdominal pathology in patients with ventricular assist devices is likely to become increasingly important as the utilization of these devices expands. Ventricular assist devices represent a class of intracorporeal or paracorporeal mechanical devices that augment cardiac output in patients with congestive heart failure. Patients with ventricular assist devices supporting both right and left ventricles (biventricular assist devices) are uniquely challenging to the general surgeon because these devices restrict direct access to the abdominal cavity and because of the perioperative implications of biventricular heart failure. We describe herein the first reported successful laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a patient with a paracorporeal biventricular assist device. Cholecystectomy was performed in this patient for acute cholecystitis that occurred while the patient was awaiting heart transplantation. Our results add weight to the small body of evidence that laparoscopy is well tolerated in ventricular assist devices patients. The unique aspects of the biventricular assist device patient make laparoscopic abdominal intervention particularly suitable in this patient population.
