Dynamic Data Binding Protocol between IoT Medical Device and IoT Medical Service for Mobile Healthcare

Nicht lieferbare Medizinprodukte sind für Kliniken ein Albtraum – mitunter müssen sogar geplante OPs abgesagt werden. Die Folge: Die mit den Kostenträgern vereinbarten Leistungszahlen sind schwieriger zu erfüllen und es könnte zu schwer kompensierbaren Erlöseinbußen für die Leistungserbringer kommen. Die Medical Device Regulation (MDR) wird die Liefersituation von Medizinprodukten ab 2020 wahrscheinlich noch weiter verschärfen.

Clamping devices with constant force or pressure are desired in medical device, such as hemostatic forceps and the artificial sphincter, to prevent soft tissues from injures due to overloading. It is easily obtained by stretching an SMA wire. However, studies with SMA bending round bar have seldom been reported before. This paper studied constant force characteristic of C-shaped round bar with shape memory alloys. Optimization designs of the components were carried out with computational simulation. Numerical results show that the phenomenon of constant force strongly depends on contour curve shape and geometric dimensions of the C-shaped round bar of SMA component.

Pseudopregnancy detection is significant while as the false pregnancy may show all symptoms. It is important to differentiate it. This is a case report of a pseudopregnancy which led to an emergency cesarean section. A 28-year-old woman who claimed to 7-month pregnancy was brought to the rural health center by husband families complaining of vaginal bleeding. The woman refers to an urban hospital by Emergency Medical Service with the diagnosis of placenta previa. In the hospital, she underwent an emergency cesarean section due to a severe deceleration of fetal heart rate, prior to assessing by sonography. No fetus or signs of uterine or abdominal pregnancy were found. Wrong auscultation of the mother's heart rate instead of fetal heart rate seems to be the main error. It is required to pay more attention to the methods of differentiation of fetal heart rate from the mother's heart rate. This report enlightens false pregnancy and early differentiation.
