Summary
We propose to develop technology that helps clinicians to accurately plan and rehearse stent placements inside blood vessels. This will allow clinicians to optimise the device selection, thereby reducing complications and associated cost of stenting surgeries for hospitals and society. Oxford Heartbeat Ltd - Improving efficiency and efficacy of minimally invasive stent grafting interventions Oxford Heartbeat are developing technology that helps clinicians to accurately plan and rehearse minimally invasive stent graft replacements inside blood vessels with a view to making cardiovascular surgeries more efficient and effective. This project aims to reduce surgical time for Deep Brain Stimulation to treat Parkinsons disease by 40%, also improving patient safety and comfort through device and procedural innovation. This is a validation study for a new ultra-compact device implanted in a single procedure in the skull, saving two hours in surgery and circa \xa32,800 in operating theatre costs.
