Philips today announced the microTEE, the world’s smallest ultrasonic probe for the so-called draft transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), a special procedure for cardiac imaging in neonates.

From now on risky procedures can be performed on the heart of a baby having a better visual inspection, since an intervention can now be monitored throughout the whole course using ultrasound imaging. With their only 7.5 millimeters in diameter is microTEE only about one third as large as previous pediatric TEE probes. Especially the smallest and most vulnerable patients will benefit from this great technological progress.

The thin, flexible tube is inserted into the esophagus and positioned accurately by the examining physician. Its proximity to the heart of the upper digestive tract makes it the ideal starting point for the cardiac ultrasound. From there, the presentation of cardiac structures and the large proximal cardiac vessels is largely trouble free. Thus arise during a surgical high-resolution images of the heart, without affecting the air in the lungs or ribs imaging.

A new device could facilitate greatly the lives of diabetic patients will be treated the DIAdvisor Blood Glucose Predictor, a laptop that will work wirelessly and let you know in a few minutes, how much glucose is in the blood and therefore know how much insulin is required to eat at a given time.

This device would still be in the process of creation, a project that not only has the support of the European Community but also with 7.1 million directly financed by the Community institution.

Exposure to electromagnetic fields alter heart function, according to a study. Many newborns, especially premature babies must spend time in the incubator, which maintain their body temperature and allows doctors to closely watched. Despite the proven benefits offered by these devices, a team from the Department of Pediatrics and Obstetrics, University of Siena (Italy), said that exposure of newborns to electromagnetic fields can affect heart rate and perhaps to have long-term effects.

So far only a hypothesis, but the authors suggest that further studies in depth to say if confirmed as true or, conversely, can not be demonstrated.

A few weeks ago we saw a curious robotic simulator forceps delivery, but the field of medical practices for labor does not end here. Newborn Noelle and Hal are a mom and baby robots that have everything you need to simulate different types of birth.

These dolls are being used at the Munich University Clinic for students to conduct their practices, and perhaps it has spread to other Universities of Medicine. The truth is that it is a very complete team, with all the necessary complements both maternal and fetal monitoring (different monitors) as interchangeable parts, simulators bleeding.

European scientists are developing a portable device that will allow custom known diabetes, in minutes, the amount of glucose in your blood. The device will improve self-management of the disease and prevent damage by impairment of control. The device consists of sensors that will be attached to the body to detect a number of parameters like blood glucose or blood pressure.

With these data, patients may tune in the administration of doses, avoiding physiological complications arising from an excess of insulin. In four years it is expected that the technology is available on the market. Scientists say it is very necessary because diabetes is increasingly present in our society as a result of lifestyle we lead. For Yaiza Martínez.

To support their heart patients to complete recovery after surgery program, Australian scientists had an idea to develop new techniques of caring for and supervising the patient’s cell phone.

This method has been tested by a team from the CSIRO Australian E-Health Research Center (AEHRC) and Queensland Health. They use cell phones to collect and deliver health information and also monitor the activities of patients from their homes to a central computer data via Bluetooth.

In addition to being used to measure blood pressure, blood pressure could help limit the damage caused by a heart attack, researchers reveal.

In a study of 250 Danish adults stricken by a heart attack, Canadian researchers used a tensiometer to intermittently block the blood flow to an arm, an intervention that is started when the patient is transported to hospital by ambulance.

GE Healthcare announced today the availability of vscan, a new visualization tool pocket developed to provide physicians a means of imaging at the point of care. From the approximate size of a smartphone vscan incorporates a powerful ultrasound technology which uses clever hands of doctors means immediate and non-invasive to obtain visual information about what happens to the inside the body. Vscan is portable and easily transported from room to room to be used in many clinical settings, hospitals or primary care.
