Résumé :

Active Implantable Medical Devices (AIMDs) act as lifesaving devices. They provide electrical signals to tissues as well as perform data-logging operations. To perform these operations, they need power. The battery is the only source for such devices, as they are placed invasively inside the human body. Once the battery drains out, the patient wearing the device has to undergo medical surgery for the second time, where there are many chances of infections, and it could be life-threatening too. If the AIMDs, e.g., pacemakers are designed using rechargeable batteries, then the devices can be recharged regularly, which can increase the life of the device as well as reduce its size. Wireless charging of AIMDs such as ICDs or pacemakers is proposed in this paper using magnetic resonant coupling. The selection of frequency for power transfer is the most crucial part, as the basic restriction (BR) criteria proposed by ICNIRP guidelines and the IEEEC95.1 standard need to be followed, which ensures the safety of the patient. This is suggested by considering some basic restriction parameters, such as specific absorption rate (SAR) and current density, as suggested by guidelines. In this paper, experimentation using two frequencies is shown, i.e., 1.47 MHz (the high frequency) and 62 KHz (the low frequency). For experimentation, goat flesh and saline solution are used. Secondary coil and flesh are dipped in the saline solution. Battery recharging performed at a lower frequency took less time than with a frequency in the MHz range. All BR criteria are fulfilled for both frequencies, so the proposed methodology is safe to use.

Résumé :

Development of implantable medical devices is becoming increasingly interesting for manufacturers, but identifying the right Human Factors Engineering (HFE) approach to ensure safe use and effectiveness is challenging. Most active implantable devices are highly complex; they are built on extremely advanced, compact technology, often comprise systems of several device elements and accessories, and they span various types of user interfaces which must facilitate diverse interaction performed by several different user groups throughout the lifetime of the device. Furthermore, since treatment with implantable devices is often vital and by definition involves surgical procedures, potential risks related to use error can be severe. A systematic mapping of Product System Elements and Life Cycle Stages can help early identification of Use Cases, and for example user groups and high-level use risks, to be accounted for via HFE throughout development to optimize Human Factors processes and patient outcomes. This paper presents a concrete matrix tool which can facilitate an early systematic approach to planning and frontloading of Human Factors Engineering activities in complex medical device development.

Résumé :

The introduction of a legal framework for the supply of medical implants is discussed with reference to the Active Implantable Medical Device Directive and the Medical Device Directive. The definitions of medical device and manufacturer are discussed. The application of the Directives to device/drug combinations is considered. All implants must meet certain essential requirements to ensure that they do not harm the patient, clinician or any third party. For most implants this will be indicated on the product or its packaging by CE marking involving an independent organization called a Notified Body; the latter are appointed by the Competent Authority of the Member State. Devices are classified in proportion to the risk associated with them. The steps needed to be taken by manufacturers are outlined and the verification options discussed. The role of standards and the new approach to writing them in Europe is presented. After placing a product on the market, the manufacturer must set up a system of post-market surveillance, including a vigilance procedure, in order to monitor product performance. Individual Member States can exercise the safeguard clause when a product appears to have had the CE marking incorrectly applied.

Résumé :

The medical industry is clearly and urgently in need of development of advanced packaging that can meet the growing demand for miniaturization, high-speed performance, and flexibility for handheld, portable, in vivo, and implantable devices. To accomplish this, new packaging structures need to be able to integrate more dies with greater function, higher I/O counts, smaller die pad pitches, and high reliability, while being pushed into smaller and smaller footprints. As a result, the microelectronics industry is moving toward alternative, innovative approaches as solutions for squeezing more function into smaller packages. In the present report, key enablers for achieving reduction in size, weight, and power (SWaP) in electronic packaging for a variety of medical applications are discussed. These enablers include materials selection, embedded passives and active devices, System-in-Package (SiP) designs, and flex circuits. Manufacturing methods and materials for producing advanced organic substrates and flex along with ultra fine pitch assemblies are discussed. A case study detailing the fabrication of a flexible substrate for use in an intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) catheter demonstrates how the challenges of miniaturization are met. These challenges include use of ultra-thin polymer films, extreme fine-feature circuitization, and assembly processes to accommodate die having reduced die pad pitch.

Résumé :

The occupational health and safety framework identifies workers with an active implantable medical device (AIMD), such as a pacemaker (PM) or an implantable defibrillator (ICD), as a particularly sensitive risk group that must be protected against the dangers caused by the interference of electromagnetic field (EMF). In this paper, we describe the results of in vitro testing/measurements performed according to the EN50527-2-1:2016 standard, for the risk assessment of employees with a PM exposed to three EMF sources: (1) An electrosurgical unit (ESU); (2) a transcranial stimulator (TMS); and (3) an arc welder. The ESU did not affect the PM behavior in any of the configurations tested. For the TMS and the arc welder, interference phenomena were observed in limited experimental configurations, corresponding to the maximum magnetic field coupling between the EMF source and the implant. The in vitro measurements presented can be considered an example of how the specific risk assessment for a worker with a PM can be performed, according to one of the methodologies proposed in the EN50527-2-1:2016, and can be used as scientific evidence and literature data for future risk assessments on the same EMF sources.

Résumé :

AbstractFor known reasons, the European Parliament was forced not only to revise the old Medical Device Directive (MDD) and the Active Implantable Medical Devices Directive (AIMDD), but to replace it with the extensive MDR. With the implementation of the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) in May 2017, manufacturers of medical devices will face new challenges for their products in the future, which also have to be implemented in a timely manner. Particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are concerned about whether a timely adaptation to the MDR and their requirements can be implemented. The conversion is associated with a huge effort for all producers of medical devices and certainly, produkt launchers. The purpose of this paper is to get an overview of the most relevant and emerging requirements that manufacturers need to adapt to sell their medical devices in compliance with the MDR regulations. It also explains the extent to which changes and innovations in the MDR are discusses and problems for SMEs.

Résumé :

Background. Emerging evidence suggests that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with coronary artery diseases and arrhythmias. The FibroScan (Echosens, France), a widely available, noninvasive device, is able to detect liver fibrosis and steatosis within this patient population. However, the FibroScan is currently contraindicated in patients with cardiac pacemakers (PM) or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD).Objective. To determine the safety profile of FibroScan testing in patients with PM or ICD.Methods. Consecutive outpatients undergoing routine device interrogations at a tertiary level teaching hospital underwent simultaneous liver stiffness measurements. PM or ICD performance data, device types, patient demographics, medical history, and previous laboratory and conventional liver imaging results were collected.Results. Analysis of 107 subjects with 33 different types of implanted cardiac devices, from 5 different companies (Medtronic, Sorin, ELA Medical, Boston Scientific, and St. Jude), did not demonstrate any adverse events as defined by abnormal device sensing/pacing or ICD firing. This population included high risk subjects undergoing active pacing (n=53) and with right pectoral PM placement (n=1). None of the subjects had any clinical signs of decompensated congestive heart failure or cirrhosis during the exam.Conclusion. TE with FibroScan can be safely performed in patients with PM or ICD.

Résumé :

Case reports indicate that magnets in smartphones could be a source of electromagnetic interference (EMI) for active implantable medical devices (AIMD), which could lead to device malfunction, compromising patient safety. Recognizing this challenge, we implemented a high-fidelity 3D magnetic field mapping (spatial resolution 1 mm) setup using a three-axis Hall probe and teslameter, controlled by a robot (COSI Measure). With this setup, we examined the stray magnetic field of an iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 12, and MagSafe charger to identify sources of magnetic fields for the accurate risk assessment of potential interferences with AIMDs. Our measurements revealed that the stray fields of the annular array of magnets, the wide-angle camera, and the speaker of the smartphones exceeded the 1 mT limit defined by ISO 14117:2019. Our data-driven safety recommendation is that an iPhone 13 Pro should be kept at least 25 mm away from an AIMD to protect it from unwanted EMI interactions. Our study addresses safety concerns due to potential device–device interactions between smartphones and AIMDs and will help to define data-driven safety guidelines. We encourage vendors of electronic consumer products (ECP) to provide information on the magnetic fields of their products and advocate for the inclusion of smartphones in the risk assessment of EMI with AIMDs.

Résumé :

Active implantable medical devices (AIMDs) like implantable cardiac pacemakers play very important role in extending lives of patients with some cardiovascular diseases. The life of implantable device depends on life of battery. If this device can be charged from outside with power transfer device, then the cost of surgical procedures for patient can be saved. One must ensure, while transferring this power there should not be any abnormal effect on human body tissues. Wireless recharging of such devices through magnetic resonant coupling is of concern and hence the topic of more research to have uninterrupted supply from battery. The technique of wireless power transfer, primary or transmitting coil is assumed to be on body and receiver coil is assumed to be inside the human body. Several critical aspects need to be studied while designing coil for wireless power transfer (WPT). One of which is choice of operational frequency. In this research experiment, designed circuit is tested for checking power transfer was studied. Effect of the distance between primary and secondary coil affects the efficiency of power transfer. Authors also tied to test this for using different medium like air, placing 80 GSM paper and cloth. It is found that the medium between the primary and secondary affects the transfer of power. Careful thought needs to be given while designing power transfer system.

Résumé :

IntroductionIn 2017, the European Union (EU) commission released the final versions of the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and In-vitro Diagnostic Device Regulation. These regulations will replace the EU directives (Medical Device Directive [MDD], In-vitro Diagnostic Device [IVDD], and Active Implantable Medical Device [AIMD]). EU regulations are effective in all EU countries at date of publication. In contrast, the EU directives must be implemented in national law first.MethodsGuidelines and respective legislation, consultation results and methods/medical device (MD) evaluations were reviewed and analyzed. Decision criteria and reasoning, assessment outcomes and potential impact on price negotiations were the main aspects for comparison.ResultsManufacturers have to be aware of the importance of clinical data for demonstrating the compliance of their products. This applies both to the approval of the products and the “post-market activities” and particularly to the “post-market clinical follow-up” for which requirements for Class I and II products need to be further developed. The MDR requires manufacturers to collect clinical data before and after approval, which could lead to excessive documentation requirements. The term “sufficient clinical data” from the MDR is unclear. A functional Eudamed specification is necessary, which enables an automated processing of relevant data. A stronger involvement in the evaluation process is needed as well as more transparency in the Joint Federal Committee (G-BA) and faster evaluation processes.ConclusionsThe MDR increases the burden especially for small businesses, and it is doubtable that the ultimate goal – improving patient safety – will be achieved. The increased demands and rising costs of the new EU MDR and bottlenecks at Notified Bodies can be a risk for the MD industry. Due to the general reduction in the remuneration for services with a high proportion of technical services, it is feared that products will be withdrawn from the market for economic reasons or that they will not be marketed.

Résumé :

This paper presents results of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing of three implantable neurostimulators exposed to the magnetic fields emitted from several walk-through and hand-held metal detectors. The motivation behind this testing comes from numerous adverse event reports involving active implantable medical devices (AIMDs) and security systems that have been received by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). EMC testing was performed using three neurostimulators exposed to the emissions from 12 walk-through metal detectors (WTMDs) and 32 hand-held metal detectors (HHMDs). Emission measurements were performed on all HHMDs and WTMDs and summary data is presented. Results from the EMC testing indicate possible electromagnetic interference (EMI) between one of the neurostimulators and one WTMD and indicate that EMI between the three neurostimulators and HHMDs is unlikely. The results suggest that worst case situations for EMC testing are hard to predict and testing all major medical device modes and setting parameters are necessary to understand and characterize the EMC of AIMDs.

Résumé :

BackgroundAn urgent need exists for differentiated RA therapies that are safer and cost-effective to expand treatment approaches for non-responders to disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve activates the inflammatory reflex and has been shown to inhibit the production and release of inflammatory cytokines and decrease clinical signs and symptoms in chronic inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis[1].ObjectivesThe RESET-RA Study (NCT04539964) was designed to determine the safety and efficacy of a novel neuroimmune modulation device for treating rheumatoid arthritis. Presented here are data on the safety of the surgical implantation and use of this device in the first 60 human subjects enrolled in the study.MethodsThe RESET-RA study is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, multi-center, two-stage pivotal study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel neuroimmune modulation device in patients with moderate-to-severe RA who are incomplete responders or are intolerant to one or more biologic or targeted synthetic DMARDs. The device system (SetPoint Medical, Valencia, CA) consists of 2 implanted components: a miniature, rechargeable, leadless pulse generator that is surgically implanted in the neck on the left vagus nerve and a silicon sleeve referred to as a positioning and orientation device (POD) that holds the generator in close approximation to the nerve; and two external components: a wireless charger and an iPad application for programming the pulse generation. All subjects were implanted with the study device. One to three weeks after the implant procedure, subjects were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either active or sham stimulation (control). The safety of the surgical procedure, device, and device stimulation was blindly assessed after 12 weeks of stimulation therapy.ResultsAll device implant procedures were completed with no intraoperative complications, infections, or surgical revisions. No unanticipated adverse events (AEs) were reported during the perioperative period and at the end of 12 weeks of follow-up. No study discontinuations were due to AEs, and no subjects died during the study. There were no serious AEs related to the device, stimulation, or explant procedures. There were two serious AEs related to the implant procedure: vocal cord paresis and prolonged hoarseness were reported in two subjects and are known risks of implanting a device on the vagus nerve. The vocal cord paresis resolved following vocal cord augmentation with injectable filler and speech therapy; the other SAE is ongoing and improving with speech therapy.ConclusionInitial results demonstrated that implantation and programming of the novel neuroimmune modulation device was safe, and the surgical procedure and device were well tolerated. Full results from this study, including the clinical efficacy, will be presented after the study is fully enrolled and data is analyzed to determine potential of neuroimmune modulation for treating rheumatoid arthritis.Reference[1]Genovese MC, et al.

Résumé :

ImportanceEstablishing a formal definition for neurological device abandonment has the potential to reduce or to prevent the occurrence of this abandonment.ObjectiveTo perform a systematic review of the literature and develop an expert consensus definition for neurological device abandonment.Evidence ReviewAfter a Royal Society Summit on Neural Interfaces (September 13-14, 2023), a systematic English language review using PubMed was undertaken to investigate extant definitions of neurological device abandonment. Articles were reviewed for relevance to neurological device abandonment in the setting of deep brain, vagal nerve, and spinal cord stimulation. This review was followed by the convening of an expert consensus group of physicians, scientists, ethicists, and stakeholders. The group summarized findings, added subject matter experience, and applied relevant ethics concepts to propose a current operational definition of neurological device abandonment. Data collection, study, and consensus development were done between September 13, 2023, and February 1, 2024.FindingsThe PubMed search revealed 734 total articles, and after review, 7 articles were found to address neurological device abandonment. The expert consensus group addressed findings as germane to neurological device abandonment and added personal experience and additional relevant peer-reviewed articles, addressed stakeholders’ respective responsibilities, and operationally defined abandonment in the context of implantable neurotechnological devices. The group further addressed whether clinical trial failure or shelving of devices would constitute or be associated with abandonment as defined. Referential to these domains and dimensions, the group proposed a standardized definition for abandonment of active implantable neurotechnological devices.Conclusions and RelevanceThis study’s consensus statement suggests that the definition for neurological device abandonment should entail failure to provide fundamental aspects of patient consent; fulfill reasonable responsibility for medical, technical, or financial support prior to the end of the device’s labeled lifetime; and address any or all immediate needs that may result in safety concerns or device ineffectiveness and that the definition of abandonment associated with the failure of a research trial should be contingent on specific circumstances.

Résumé :

AbstractMany patients in radiotherapy carry active implantable medical devices (AIMDs) such as pacemakers or cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). The influence of the ionizing radiation can lead to failures in the device function. This study presents a tissue-equivalent test environment to investigate the influence of ionizing radiation on AIMDs. The in-vitro test environment is designed to simulate a human torso. Structures such as the heart, lungs, ribs, spinal column and soft tissue are replicated from tissue-equivalent materials to allow realistic treatment planning and to simulate the effect of ionizing radiation on active implants. CT measurements and Monte-Carlo validations have shown that Polytetrafluorethylen (bone), carrageenan (heart), Styrodur (lung) and Biresin® G27 (soft tissue) fulfill all requirements for suitable tissue surrogates. A plug-in unit integrated in the test environment has been designed specifically to allow the placement AIMDs in the phantom at typical positions for implant placement in humans. The dosimetry validation showed that the test environment is applicable in the full treatment planning process.

Résumé :

Recent advances in soft materials and mechanics activate development of many new types of electrical medical implants. Electronic implants that provide exceptional functions, however, usually require more electrical power, resulting in shorter period of usages although many approaches have been suggested to harvest electrical power in human bodies by resolving the issues related to power density, biocompatibility, tissue damage, and others. Here, we report an active photonic power transfer approach at the level of a full system to secure sustainable electrical power in human bodies. The active photonic power transfer system consists of a pair of the skin-attachable photon source patch and the photovoltaic device array integrated in a flexible medical implant. The skin-attachable patch actively emits photons that can penetrate through live tissues to be captured by the photovoltaic devices in a medical implant. The wireless power transfer system is very simple, e.g., active power transfer in direct current (DC) to DC without extra circuits, and can be used for implantable medical electronics regardless of weather, covering by clothes, in indoor or outdoor at day and night. We demonstrate feasibility of the approach by presenting thermal and mechanical compatibility with soft live tissues while generating enough electrical power in live bodies throughin vivoanimal experiments. We expect that the results enable long-term use of currently available implants in addition to accelerating emerging types of electrical implants that require higher power to provide diverse convenient diagnostic and therapeutic functions in human bodies.

Résumé :

Abstract Aims Abandoned leads are often linked to complications during lead extraction, prompting pre-emptive extraction if leads become non-functional. We examined their influence on complications when extracted for device-related infection. Methods and results All patients undergoing lead extraction for device-related infection from 2006 to 2017 in our hospital were included. The primary endpoint was major complications. Out of 500 patients, 141 had abandoned leads, of whom 75% had only one abandoned lead. Median cumulative implant times were 24.2 (interquartile range 15.6–38.2) and 11.6 (5.6–17.4), respectively years with or without abandoned leads. All leads were extracted only with a femoral approach in 50.4% of patients. Mechanical rotational tools were introduced in 2014 and used in 22.2% of cases and replacing laser sheaths that were used in 5% of patients. Major complications occurred in 0.7% of patients with abandoned leads compared with 1.7% of patients with only active leads (P = 0.679). Failure to completely remove all leads was 14.9% and 6.4%, respectively with or without abandoned leads (P = 0.003), and clinical failure was 6.4% and 2.2% (P = 0.028), respectively. Procedural failure dropped to 9.2% and 5.7% (P = 0.37), respectively after the introduction of mechanical rotational tools. The only independent predictor of procedural and clinical failure in multivariate analysis was the cumulative implant duration. Conclusion Despite longer implant times, patients with abandoned leads did not have more major complications during lead extraction. Therefore, preventive extraction of non-functional leads to avoid complications at a later stage is not warranted.

Résumé :

(1) Background: Infections are among the most frequent and life-threatening complications of cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation. The aim of this study is to compare the outcome and safety of a single-procedure device extraction and contralateral implantation versus the standard-of-care (SoC) two-stage replacement for infected CIEDs. (2) Methods: We retrospectively included 66 patients with CIED infections who were treated at two Italian hospitals. Of the 66 patients enrolled in the study, 27 underwent a single procedure, whereas 39 received SoC treatment. All patients were followed up for 12 months after the procedure. (3) Results: Considering those lost to follow-up, there were no differences in the mortality rates between the two cohorts, with survival rates of 81.5% in the single-procedure group and 84.6% in the SoC group (p = 0.075). (4) Conclusions: Single-procedure reimplantation associated with an active antibiofilm therapy may be a feasible and effective therapeutic option in CIED-dependent and frail patients. Further studies are warranted to define the best treatment regimen and strategies to select patients suitable for the single-procedure reimplantation.

Résumé :

A custom-made device (CMD) is a medical device intended for the sole use of a particular patient. In a dental setting, CMDs include prosthodontic devices, orthodontic appliances, bruxism splints, speech prostheses and devices for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea, trauma prevention and orthognathic surgery facilitation (arch bars and interocclusal wafers). Since 1993, the production and provision of CMDs have been subject to European Union (EU) Directive 93/42/EEC (Medical Device Directive, MDD) given effect in the UK by The Medical Devices Regulations 2002 (Statutory Instrument 2002/618), and its subsequent amendments. Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (Medical Device Regulation, EU MDR) replaces the MDD and the other EU Directive pertaining to Medical Devices, Council Directive 90/385/EEC (Active Implantable Medical Device Directive, AIMDD). The EU MDR was published on 5 April 2017, came into force on 25 May 2017 and, following a three-year transition period was due to be fully implemented and repeal the MDD on 26 May 2020, but was deferred until 26 May 2021 due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. In the UK, in preparation for the country’s planned departure from the EU, the EU MDR, with necessary amendments, was transposed into UK law (Medical Devices (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, UK MDR). The UK left the Union on 31 January 2020 and entered a transition period that ended on 31 December 2020, meaning that, from 1 January 2021, dental professionals in Great Britain who prescribe and manufacture CMDs are mandated to do so in accordance with the new legislation while Northern Ireland remains in line with the EU legislation and implementation date. This paper sets out the requirements that relate to the production and provision of CMDs in a UK dental setting.

Résumé :

Abstract: Drug Eluting Stents (DES) are small, expandable tubes that are implanted into a diseased, blocked peripheral or coronary artery through angioplasty to widen and increase the blood flow by slowly releasing the drug from device. They are covered in a medication that stops scar tissue from expanding upon that artery. In medical practice DES are frequently used for vascular disorders, exhibiting adequate potency and suitability within the acceptable range. Medical device regulations in European Union (EU) are covered by Directives 93/42/EEC, 98/79/EEC and 90/385/EEC which were recently replaced by new regulations (EU) 2017/745 on medical devices and (EU) 2017/746 on In vitro diagnostic medical devices. Across all the EU legislation, “CE Mark” or “Certificate of Compliance” has become a recognised term. The Competent authority’s (CA) certifies that a product conforms to required standards of EU, then the manufacturer display the “CE mark” on the label. The DrugDevice combination products like DES are included in Class-III high risk active implantable medical devices. The pre-clinical investigations of drug eluting stents often follow International Organization for Standardization (ISO) requirements, these vascular stents are covered under ISO 25539-2: 2020 - Cardiovascular Implants - Endovascular Devices, ISO 10993:2018- Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices and ISO 10555-1: 2013 – Intravascular catheters, sterile and single use medical devices.

Résumé :

In absence of available quantitative measures, the assessment of fracture healing based on clinical examination and X-rays remains a subjective matter. Lacking reliable information on the state of healing, rehabilitation is hardly individualized and mostly follows non evidence-based protocols building on common guidelines and personal experience. Measurement of fracture stiffness has been demonstrated as a valid outcome measure for the maturity of the repair tissue but so far has not found its way to clinical application outside the research space. However, with the recent technological advancements and trends towards digital health care, this seems about to change with new generations of instrumented implants – often unfortunately termed “smart implants” – being developed as medical devices.The AO Fracture Monitor is a novel, active, implantable sensor system designed to provide an objective measure for the assessment of fracture healing progression (1). It consists of an implantable sensor that is attached to conventional locking plates and continuously measures implant load during physiological weight bearing. Data is recorded and processed in real-time on the implant, from where it is wirelessly transmitted to a cloud application via the patient's smartphone. Thus, the system allows for timely, remote and X-ray free provision of feedback upon the mechanical competence of the repair tissue to support therapeutic decision making and individualized aftercare.The device has been developed according to medical device standards and underwent extensive verification and validation, including an in-vivo study in an ovine tibial osteotomy model, that confirmed the device's capability to depict the course of fracture healing as well as its long-term technical performance. Currently a multi-center clinical investigation is underway to demonstrate clinical safety of the novel implant system. Rendering the progression of bone fracture healing assessable, the AO Fracture Monitor carries potential to enhance today's postoperative care of fracture patients.

Résumé :

Most of the patients undergoing treatment for cancer require placement of a totally implantable venous access device to facilitate safe delivery of chemotherapy. However, implantable ports also increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis and related complications in this high-risk population. The objective of this study was to assess the incidence of upper-extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) in patients with breast cancer to determine whether the risk of UEDVT was higher with chest versus arm ports, as well as to determine the importance of previously reported risk factors predisposing to UEDVT in the setting of active cancer. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 297 women with breast cancer who had ports placed in our institution between the dates of December 1, 2010, and December 31, 2016. The primary outcome was the development of radiologically confirmed UEDVT ipsilateral to the implanted port. Overall, 17 of 297 study subjects (5.7%) were found to have UEDVT. There was 1 documented case of associated pulmonary embolism. Fourteen (9.5%) of 147 subjects with arm ports experienced UEDVT compared with only 3 (2.0%) of 150 subjects with chest ports ( P = .0056). Thus, implantation of arm ports as opposed to chest ports may be associated with a higher rate of UEDVT in patients with breast cancer.

Résumé :

This article presents a novel aging-coupled predictive thermo-electrical dynamic modeling tool tailored for primary lithium manganese dioxide (Li-MnO2) batteries in active implantable medical devices (AIMDs). The aging mechanisms of rechargeable lithium batteries are well documented using computationally intensive physics-based models, unsuitable for real-time onboard monitoring in AIMDs due to their high demands. There is a critical need for efficient, less demanding modeling tools for accurate battery health monitoring and end-of-life prediction as well as battery safety assessment in these devices. The presented model in this article simulates the battery terminal voltage, remaining capacity, temperature, and aging during active discharge, making it suitable for real-time health monitoring and end-of-life prediction. We incorporate a first-order dynamic for internal resistance growth, influenced by time, temperature, discharge depth, and load current. By adopting Arrhenius-type kinetics and polynomial relationships, this model effectively simulates the combined impact of these variables on battery aging under diverse operational conditions. The simulation handles both the continuous micro-ampere-level demands necessary for device housekeeping and periodic high-rate pulses needed for therapeutic functions, at a constant ambient temperature of 37 °C, mimicking human body conditions. Our findings reveal a gradual, nonlinear increase in internal resistance as the battery ages, rising by an order of magnitude over a period of 5 years. Sensitivity analysis shows that as the battery ages and load current increases, the terminal voltage becomes increasingly sensitive to internal resistance. Specifically, at defibrillation events, the ∂V∂R trajectory dramatically increases from 10−12 to 10−8, indicating a fourth-order-of-magnitude enhancement in sensitivity. A model verification against experimental data shows an R2 value of 0.9506, indicating a high level of accuracy in predicting the Li-MnO2 cell terminal voltage. This modeling tool offers a comprehensive framework for effectively monitoring and optimizing battery life in AIMDs, therefore enhancing patient safety.

Résumé :

Active bone-conducting hearing devices (aBCHD; e.g., MEDEL Bonebridge® (BB)) and active middle ear implants (aMEI; e.g., MEDEL Vibrant Soundbridge® (VSB)) use radio frequency transmission to send information from an external microphone and sound processor to an internally implanted transducer. These devices potentially have an advantage over devices with percutaneous links because the skin is closed over the implantable components, which should reduce the risk of skin problems and infection. On the other hand, surgical procedures are more complex, with a greater risk of damage due to surgery. The objectives of this research were to quantify the reliability and long-term survival of MEDEL VSB and BB devices, determine the adverse and serious adverse device-related complications, and consider associated causes. A multi-center observational retrospective and prospective study was conducted at eleven auditory implant centers in the United Kingdom. Data was collected using a surgical questionnaire and audiological reports. Data were obtained from patient notes or from prospective cases that had a minimum follow-up of one year post-implant. Consecutive patient records were reviewed. Datasets from 109 BB and 163 VSB were reviewed. Of these, 205 were retrospective case note reviews, and 67 were prospective cases. The mean follow-up was 4 and 6 years, respectively, for BB and VSB. Kaplan–Meier Survival analyses indicated that the BB survival was 97% and 93.3% at 1 and 5 years, respectively, and the VSB was 92.1% and 87% at the same time points. This is a large cohort study for the field and has indicated that BB and VSB are safe interventions. Care should be taken to monitor magnet strength in the first few months. For the majority of device-related effects, there was no apparent association with etiology. However, an interesting pattern emerged for individuals who exhibited an inflammatory response, e.g., adhesions or device extrusion, and those with a history of chronic suppurative otitis media. This should be considered in future work and is not surprising given that many VSB recipients have a complicated hearing history, often associated with otitis media.

Résumé :

Background: Physical activity is associated with improved quality of life. Patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) face unique clinical and psychological challenges. Factors such as fear of ICD shock may negatively impact on physical activity, while a sense of protection gained from the ICD may instil confidence to be active. Aim: We aimed to examine the impact of an ICD on physical activity levels and factors associated with amount of activity. Methods: Two cross-sectional studies were conducted. Accelerometer data (seven-day) was collected in March–November 2015 for 63 consecutively recruited hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients, with or without an ICD, aged ⩾18 years. A survey study was conducted in July–August 2016 of 155 individuals aged ⩾18 years with an inherited heart disease and an ICD in situ. Results: Based on the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, mean leisure time physical activity was 239 ± 300 min/week with 51% meeting physical activity guidelines. Accelerometry showed that mean moderate–vigorous physical activity was the same for patients with and without an ICD (254 ± 139 min/week versus 300 ± 150 min/week, p=0.23). Nearly half of survey participants ( n=73) said their device made them more confident to exercise. Being anxious about ICD shocks was the only factor associated with not meeting physical activity guidelines. Conclusions: Patients with inherited heart disease adjust differently to their ICD device, and for many it has no impact on physical activity. Discussion regarding the appropriate level of physical activity and potential barriers will ensure best possible outcomes in this unique patient group.

Résumé :

IntroductionAustralians are adjusting to mobile health (mHealth) applications (apps) being used in clinical care. The nature of apps presents unique challenges (e.g. rapid lifecycle) to mHealth regulation. The risks they pose are mainly through the information they provide and how it is used in clinical decision-making. This study explores the international regulation of mHealth apps. It assesses whether the approach used in Australia to regulate apps is consistent with international standards and suitable to address the unique challenges presented by the technology.MethodsA policy analysis was conducted of all nine member jurisdictions of the International Medical Device Regulator's Forum (IMDRF), to determine if their regulatory agencies addressed the IMDRF recommendations relevant to the clinical evaluation of mHealth apps. Case-studies (submission to regulatory agencies) were also selected on varying types of regulated apps (standalone, active implantable, etc.) and assessed relative to the principles in the IMDRF's software as a medical device (SaMD): Clinical evaluation (2017) guidance document.ResultsAll included jurisdictions evaluated the effectiveness of mHealth apps, assessing the majority of the key sub-categories recommended by SaMD: Clinical evaluation. The submissions and jurisdictional regulatory bodies did not address the IMDRF safety principles in terms of the apps’ information security (cybersecurity). Furthermore, by failing to use the method recommended by the IMDRF (risk-classification), none of the submissions or jurisdictions recognized the potential dangers of misinformation on patient safety.ConclusionsNone of the approaches used by global regulatory bodies adequately address the unique challenges posed by apps. Australia's approach is consistent with app regulatory procedures used internationally. We recommend that mHealth apps are evaluated for cybersecurity and are also classified using the IMDRF risk-categories so as to fully protect the public.

Résumé :

Abstract Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly becoming the imaging modality of choice for many clinical disorders due to superior image quality and absence of radiation. However, access to MRI remains limited for most patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices due to potential safety concerns. In line with guidelines, there is no absolute contraindication to perform MRI, but warrants careful risk-benefit assessment. Case summary A 59-year-old man was admitted with a 5-day history of central chest pain and few week’s history of general malaise, dry cough, and breathlessness. Electrocardiogram confirmed complete atrioventricular block (CAVB). A slight increase in cardiac enzyme was noted. Coronary angiogram revealed atheromatous changes, but no obstructive coronary lesion. A temporary transvenous pacemaker was inserted. Transthoracic echocardiogram confirmed a dilated left ventricle with severely reduced left ventricular function. To facilitate diagnosis (hence prognosis), management and mobilization, investigation with cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) was warranted but contraindicated by the temporary transvenous pacemaker. An active fixation pacemaker lead was therefore placed in the right ventricle via percutaneous puncture of the right subclavian vein and connected to a pulse generator, both secured to the skin with sutures and adhesive medical dressing. Appropriate device programming and close patient monitoring ensured that CMR could be performed without any adverse effects. A diagnosis of acute myocarditis was confirmed. Regular device interrogation during an extended 3-week period with temporary pacing ruled out any device failure. As there was no resolution of CAVB, the patient received a dual-chamber pacemaker. Discussion Cardiovascular magnetic resonance was feasible and safely performed on a patient with a temporary permanent external pacemaker system using a standard screw-in pacing lead and a regular pulse generator fixed to the skin. Although more studies are needed for generalizability, CMR may be used in highly selected patients with a temporary pacemaker.

Résumé :

Abstract Titanium represents an important biomaterial for implantable medical devices. During medical device manufacturing by means of welding, implant structures are partially exposed to high temperatures. Additionally, active implants such as pacemakers can heat up during operation. Therefore, numerical studies of heat propagation within titanium structures represent an essential tool to assess functionality and safety of medical devices. The current study focusses on the development of a method for experimental validation of numerical heat transfer analysis of biomaterials such as titanium. Numerical heat transfer analysis was performed using the software Abaqus. A finite-element model was established including material properties such as density, thermal conductivity und specific heat capacity. Temperature distribution among a locally applied thermal load was calculated. Furthermore, effects such as convection were considered. For validation, an experimental setup was implemented according to the numerical calculation using a local heating tool. Heat propagation in the sample was determined, respectively. Radiation-based heat determination was performed using an infrared thermographic camera aligned parallel to the sample surface. Contact-based heat determination was performed using thermocouples fixed to the surface at defined distances from the point of local heat input. For evaluation of numerical and experimental results, temperature- time curves were compared for five distinct measuring points, respectively. While infrared thermography offers the advantage of non-contact measurements, difficulties may arise from the definition of correct emissivity and challenging sample surface characteristics, such as metallic reflectance and surface texture. The thermocouple-based temperature measurement shows a high sensitivity to local temperature changes, but it is not always suitable due to the influence on the sample by thermocouple fixation. Infrared thermography and thermocouple based temperature measurements represent suitable procedures for experimental validation of numerical heat transfer analysis of titanium. An individual decision for the most suitable method must be made considering the specific sample and its further application.

Résumé :

Abstract Subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD™) therapy has been established in initial clinical trials and current international guideline recommendations for patients without demand for pacing, cardiac resynchronization, or antitachycardia pacing. The promising experience in ‘ideal’ S-ICD™ candidates increasingly encourages physicians to provide the benefits of S-ICD™ therapy to patients in clinical constellations beyond ‘classical’ indications of S-ICD™ therapy, which has led to a broadening of S-ICD™ indications in many centres. However, the decision for S-ICD™ implantation is still not covered by controlled randomized trials but rather relies on patient series or observational studies. Thus, this review intends to give a contemporary update on available empirical evidence data and technical advancements of S-ICD™ technology and sheds a spotlight on S-ICD™ therapy in recently discovered fields of indication beyond ideal preconditions. We discuss the eligibility for S-ICD™ therapy in Brugada syndrome as an example for an adverse and dynamic electrocardiographic pattern that challenges the S-ICD™ sensing and detection algorithms. Besides, the S-ICD™ performance and defibrillation efficacy in conditions of adverse structural remodelling as exemplified for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is discussed. In addition, we review recent data on potential device interactions between S-ICD™ systems and other implantable cardio-active systems (e.g. pacemakers) including specific recommendations, how these could be prevented. Finally, we evaluate limitations of S-ICD™ therapy in adverse patient constitutions, like distinct obesity, and present contemporary strategies to assure proper S-ICD™ performance in these patients. Overall, the S-ICD™ performance is promising even for many patients, who may not be ‘classical’ candidates for this technology.

Aim:to develop an optimal surgical tactic for implantation of “AVK-N” system as a “bridge” to heart transplantation.Materials and methods.17 patients were included. They were operated in the period from 2012 to October 2017 in Federal State Budgetary Institution «V.I. Shumakov National Medical Research Center of Transplantology and Artifi cial Organs». A tiny implantable system «Portable device for assisting cardiac circulation» (AVK-N; Russia) was used for replacing the pumping function of the left ventricle. All patients were examined according to the program of potential recipients for heart transplantation, before the applying of prolonged mechanical circulatory support. Among the operated patients there were 16 (94.1%) men and 1 (5.9%) woman, the average age was 52.64 ± 10.56 (from 33 to 67 years). All patients had congestive heart failure III–IV functional class according to NYHA, refractory to optimal drug therapy. Heart failure was triggered by dilated cardiomyopathy in 12 (70,58%) cases, and by postinfarction systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle in 5 (29,42%). Implantation of «AVK-N» system was performed to potential recipients of the donor heart with terminal stage of CHF with a decrease in LV ejection fraction up to 10%.Results.As a result of this study there were developed several technological aspects facilitating the subsequent heart transplantation.Conclusion.Our experience in optimizing the surgical tactics of the “AVK-N” system implantation as a bridge to heart transplantation, demonstrated the possibility and safety of its active use in both patients with terminal heart failure on the waiting list of heart transplantation and patients having temporary contraindications to HTX.

Résumé :

Numerical body models of children are used for designing medical devices, including but not limited to optical imaging, ultrasound, CT, EEG/MEG, and MRI. These models are used in many clinical and neuroscience research applications, such as radiation safety dosimetric studies and source localization. Although several such adult models have been reported, there are few reports of full-body pediatric models, and those described have several limitations. Some, for example, are either morphed from older children or do not have detailed segmentations. Here, we introduce a 29-month-old male whole-body native numerical model, “MARTIN”, that includes 28 head and 86 body tissue compartments, segmented directly from the high spatial resolution MRI and CT images. An advanced auto-segmentation tool was used for the deep-brain structures, whereas 3D Slicer was used to segment the non-brain structures and to refine the segmentation for all of the tissue compartments. Our MARTIN model was developed and validated using three separate approaches, through an iterative process, as follows. First, the calculated volumes, weights, and dimensions of selected structures were adjusted and confirmed to be within 6% of the literature values for the 2-3-year-old age-range. Second, all structural segmentations were adjusted and confirmed by two experienced, sub-specialty certified neuro-radiologists, also through an interactive process. Third, an additional validation was performed with a Bloch simulator to create synthetic MR image from our MARTIN model and compare the image contrast of the resulting synthetic image with that of the original MRI data; this resulted in a “structural resemblance” index of 0.97. Finally, we used our model to perform pilot MRI safety simulations of an Active Implantable Medical Device (AIMD) using a commercially available software platform (Sim4Life), incorporating the latest International Standards Organization guidelines. This model will be made available on the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging website.

Résumé :

A specific method for the estimation of the induced power at the tip by an active implantable medical device (AIMD) during an MRI scan is not defined in ISO/TS 10974:2018 for the cases of devices with multiple leads or the presence of abandoned and retained leads, where coupling between two leads could take place. Therefore, the aim of this work is to evaluate a numerical method, similar to Tier 3 of ISO/TS 10974:2018, for the estimation of the deposited power at the tips of two coupled implanted leads. Specifically, the proposed methodology applies the same parameters as the standard Tier 3 process. However, these parameters are calculated for each implant in the presence of its neighbors in order to include the coupling between them. Numerical electromagnetic simulations were performed, in which a pair of generic implant leads was excited and placed at various positions relative to each other. The deposited power at the tips of the pair was analyzed based on the standard Tier 3 approach, and the results show that this could overestimate the induced power by more than 6 dB. Therefore, a modified Tier 3 numerical method for the estimation of the deposited power at their tips is proposed, which can produce a reliable calculation. This method was confirmed by evaluating various configurations of the two leads excited by orthogonal electrical fields, and also its uncertainty budget was developed. Finally, the method was repeated for different properties of the generic implants and the surrounding tissue, as well as for a pair of realistic implants and in vivo implantation trajectories.

Résumé :

Background: More patients with cardiac implantable electrical devices (CIEDs) are presenting to spine and pain practices for radiofrequency ablation (RFA) procedures for chronic pain. Although the potential for electromagnetic interference (EMI) affecting CIED function is known with RFA procedures, available guidelines do not specifically address CIED management for percutaneous RFA for zygapophyseal (z-joint) joint pain, and thus physician practice may vary. Objectives: To better understand current practices of physicians who perform RFA for chronic z-joint pain with respect to management of CIEDs. Perioperative CIED management guidelines are also reviewed to specifically address risk mitigation strategies for potential EMI created by ambulatory percutaneous spine RFA procedures. Study Design: Web-based provider survey and narrative review. Setting: Multispecialty pain clinic, academic medical center. Methods: A web-based survey was created using Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap). A survey link was provided via e-mail to active members of the Spine Intervention Society (SIS), American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, as well as distributed freely to community Pain Physicians and any receptive academic departments of PM&R or Anesthesiology. The narrative review summarizes pertinent case series, review articles, a SIS recommendation statement, and multi-specialty peri-operative guidelines as they relate specifically to spine RFA procedures. Results: A total of 197 clinicians participated in the survey from diverse clinical backgrounds, including anesthesiology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, radiology, neurosurgery, and neurology, with 81% reporting fellowship training. Survey responses indicate wide variability in provider management of CIEDs before, during, and after RFA for z-joint pain. Respondents indicated they would like more specific guidelines to aid in management and decision-making around CIEDs and spine RFA procedures. Literature review yielded several practice guidelines related to perioperative management of CIEDs, but no specific guideline for percutaneous spine RFA procedures. However, combining the risk mitigation strategies provided in these guidelines, with interventional pain physician clinical experience allows for reasonable management recommendations to aid in decision-making. Limitations: Although this manuscript can serve as a review of CIEDs and aid in management decisions in patients with CIEDs, it is not a clinical practice guideline. Conclusions: Practice patterns vary regarding CIED management in ambulatory spine RFA procedures. CIED presence is not a contraindication for spine RFA but does increase the complexity of a spine RFA procedure and necessitates some added precautions.

Résumé :

Background: Sensory neural hearing loss (SNHL) is the most common congenital sensory deficit, with an incidence of one to three per 1000 live births. Acoustic deprivation during the first 3 years of life can hinder speech and language acquisition with significant negative consequences on a child’s educational and psychosocial development. The gold standard intervention for permanent severe to profound hearing loss is cochlear implantation. Cochlear implant (CI); is a semi implantable electronic device that bypass the cochlea. Objectives: An observational study was carried out on 40 cases of pre-lingual deaf to find out the causes of pre-lingual deaf, to evaluate the preoperative procedures to set ideal criteria for pre -lingual cochlear implantation and to evaluate surgical procedure and outcome of cochlear implantations. Methods: Evaluation of the candidates included patient medical history, general health checkup, ENT examination, audiometric evaluation, CT and MRI scans, psychological profile of the candidate. A limited cortical mastoidectomy was performed. The facial recess was opened using the fossa of incudis as an initial landmark. The round window niche was visualized through the facial recess about 2 mm inferior to the stapes. A cochleostomy created by drilling over the basal turn of the cochlea anterior and inferior to the annulus of the round window membrane. The electrode array was then carefully inserted through the fenestra into the scala tympani of the cochlea. Electrophysiological testing (Neural Response Telemetry: NRT) was performed to verify the correct placement of active electrodes. Resulst: Among them 22 (55%) were male and 18 (45%) were female. Male female ratio was 1.2:1. Age distribution at implantation was 3.3±1.054(SD). Average hearing loss was 96.4±5.3(SD) dB and in aided audiogram was 63.7±4.6(SD) dB. Overall complications occurred in 10 (25%) cases. Transient facial nerve paresis in 2 (5%), injury of tympanic membrane in 1(2.5%), seroma 4(10%) and delayed otitis media in 1(2.5%) were observed. Major postoperative complications occurred in 2 cases including facial nerve palsy in 1(2.5%) case and spontaneous device failure in 1(2.5%) case. Conclusion: The result of this survey was find out the risk factor of congenital hearing loss. With a thorough preoperative evaluation, we can select proper candidates for CI which is a reliable and safe procedure with a low percentage of severe complication.

Résumé :

Abstract 46 Gynecologic and gastrointestinal malignancies are two of the most prevalent cancer types in low and middle- income countries (LMICs), affecting more than 2 million individuals and killing more than 1 million patients annually. These malignancies at an advanced stage metastasize locally but extensively; this spread is a primary cause of morbidity and mortality, affecting 60-80% of patients in LMICs. Localized chemotherapy can benefit survival of patients with such metastases. Localized chemotherapy is, however, essentially unattainable in resource-limited settings, even though many chemotherapy agents are on the WHO list of essential medicines and are currently off patent. This is because of the high cost of, and frequent hospitalizations required under, the current regimen, as well as the morbidity of bolus dosing. Continuous, low-dose chemotherapy via a locally implanted device can address these adoption barriers. Previous attempts to create implants for localized chemotherapy delivery have been hindered by poorly controlled drug release and inhibiting form factors. This work explores the development of a nonresorbable and laparoscopically deployable implant to administer continuous low-dose chemotherapy. The feasibility of chemotherapy using the proposed implant in LMICs is assessed using physician interviews and literature reviews. Tissue-like silicone elastomers are used to create a matrix-type drug delivery implant that minimizes soft tissue irritation and risk of rupture while allowing laparoscopic manipulation. The synthesis and drug release profile of the silicone-based matrix are characterized for small hydrophilic active agents. Configurations allowing implant deployment through laparoscopic instruments are explored. Proof-of-concept controlled release of a hydrophilic small molecule from a lipophilic, tissue-like silicone elastomer that can be scaled to human form factors is thus established. Localized, low-dose chemotherapy delivered via a fully implantable device holds promise to dramatically reduce the cost and resources necessary for treating advanced-stage gynecologic and gastrointestinal malignancies in LMICs, improving cancer patient outcomes in resource-limited settings.

Résumé :

In today's world, electronics need to be as small as possible. This is especially true for a wide range of electronics from UAV controllers, cellphones, to implantable medical devices. One approach to achieving small system size is the System in Package (SIP). This approach incorporates a complete system (processor, memory, etc) into one small package. On the SIP, packaged parts are replaced by dies directly mounted to the substrate via flip-chip or wire-bond technology. SIP allows the designer flexibility to create a small system with only functionality that is required. A designer can pick and choose what parts are needed for a design and is not limited to the functionality of a single signal chip. Since the first level part packaging is eliminated, the overall board size decreased leading to an overall reduction in area and weight. Not only is there a reduction in size of each packaged part, but routing area is also reduced. The line widths and spacings can be reduced along with via size. The system used in the case study is a typical system with a FPGA, flash memory, DDR3 memory, ADC, DAC, voltage monitors, power supply monitor and control. The design is a complete system capable of processing analog sensor data, recording the data in external memory and controlling analog outputs. Such a system can be used for data collection, vehicle control, data processing, etc. In terms of signal integrity, the SIP offers many advantages over a traditional PWB. Given the small nature of overall package generally means shorter routes. A shorter route has the advantage of a reduced propagation delay. Also, a shorter trace will have a lower insertion loss and improved return loss. Many parts require data busses signals to match in length. This is very important for DDR3 memory. A mismatch in trace length will cause skew between the data signals and the data strobe. On a smaller board, there is an overall improvement for matching signal traces. Power distribution is another area of improvement for the SIP. A smaller board size means the board resonances will be shifted higher in frequency, alleviating possible power rail noise issues. Overall, the power planes are less lossy. Also, decoupling capacitors will be placed closer to the active components reducing the inductive path from the active device and the capacitor. This will allow decoupling for parts switching at fast rates. Given the shorter distances between transceivers within the system, the drive strength can be reduced. Decreased drive strength will reduce the amount of power dissipated by the transceiver. This presentation details a case study for a system in package design. A comparison will be made between the system laid out on a traditional printed wiring board (PWB) and the same system laid out on a substrate (SIP). Comparisons of the area, weight, route-ability and signal integrity will be made.

Main funding source(s): Horizon Introduction There is a growing interest in the use of accelerometers and sensors embedded in implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) for monitoring patient activity. Despite evidence regarding the potential clinical value of device-measured activity (D-PA), the validity of these measurements has not yet been established. Objective To assess the validity of device-measured activity against a research-grade, widely validated wearable accelerometer. Methods This is a subanalysis of the ongoing multicenter, prospective SafeHeart study. Raw accelerometry data was continuously sampled at 50Hz from a wrist-worn accelerometer (GENEActiv) during 12 months. Days with at least 22 hours of wear time were used to create summary measures of time in activity, daily active volume and total slow walking steps. These measures were compared to D-PA harmonised as percentage of active time per day, from four different ICD vendors’ remote transmission data, using linear mixed effect models. Results Wearable and device-measured activity data in 51 ICD patients rendered 1228 days (mean 24 days ±19) with both wearable and device-measured activity data. There were significant differences between wearable and device-measured accelerometery in the average time active per day (Table 1). For two vendors significant associations between D-PA, daily active volume, and total slow walking steps were observed. Also, associations between D-PA and daily active time and moderate vigorous physical activity were found in a third vendor. For the fourth vendor no association between any wearable activity metric and D-PA was found. Inter-patient differences accounted for 73.1% of the total variance in D-PA. Conclusion Results demonstrate substantial differences in device-measured activity measurements compared to research-grade activity data. This has implications for the utility and generalizability of D-PA as clinical parameter.

Résumé :

Abstract Background Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are prone to electromagnetic interference. Common sources include household electronics and industrial machinery. However, medical equipment can also trigger interferences and cause CIED malfunction. Case summary We report on a 79-year-old male with sudden onset of presyncope. He has a long history of device therapy, including an active VVI leadless pacemaker and an abandoned abdominal pacemaker with epicardial leads. Automatic reactivation of the abandoned pacemaker due to reaching end-of-life mode led to interaction with the active pacemaker, inhibiting it in its function. Due to elevated capture threshold and insufficient output, pacing by the reactivated pacemaker was accompanied by intermittent loss of myocardial capture and patient symptoms. By changing the mode to VOO and increasing the pacing rate of the active pacemaker, interaction was prevented as an intermittent solution. Final therapy consisted of explanting the pulse generator of the abdominal pacemaker. Conclusion We present a patient with a deactivated abandoned cardiac pacemaker, which self-activated after reaching end-of-life mode and triggered an interaction with his active pacemaker. This case emphasizes the importance of explanting old devices to avoid potential interaction.

Résumé :

Description of Case: A 68-year-old male with a past medical history of alcoholic cirrhosis, ischemic cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and sick sinus syndrome presented with exertional dyspnea and lower extremity edema consistent with acutely decompensated systolic heart failure. He had multiple implantable cardiac devices including a watchman device. He was subsequently found to have methicillin-sensitive staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) bacteremia and developed sepsis. A transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) was done to evaluate for infective endocarditis and a 1 cm mobile echodensity attached to the anterior aspect of the watchman device was found. Given active bacteremia, the echocardiographic appearance was felt to be most likely consistent with a vegetation. Due to significant medical and cardiac comorbidities, device extraction was deemed very high risk and deferred in favor of antibiotic therapy by a multi-disciplinary team. The patient was treated with intravenous cefazolin and oral rifampin. Clinical defervescence and clearance of bacteremia were achieved. A follow-up TEE in 6 weeks showed complete resolution of the watchman device vegetation. Discussion: Cardiac implantable devices provide significant morbidity and mortality benefits to patients but incur the potential risk of infection. Watchman device infection, though rare, has been reported. The current guidelines recommend the removal of all hardware in patients with established device infection. However, percutaneous, or surgical extraction of the watchman device bears significant risk and may not be feasible in all patients. Our case demonstrates the potential role of antimicrobial therapy alone with close surveillance in treating high-risk patients with watchman device infection.

Résumé :

The European Commission has launched a public consultation on its proposed amendments to the Medical Devices Directive (MDD) (Dir 93/42/EEC). The aim of the European Commission's proposals is to improve the coherence, transparency and effectiveness of the legislation governing medical devices in line with the recommendations of the report produced in 2002 by the European Commission's Medical Device Experts Group. This report recommended that the requirements for clinical evaluation of medical devices be clarified, transparency be increased by amending post-market surveillance requirements and that the decision making process be improved by empowering the European Commission to make binding decisions where individual national opinions differ on whether a product falls within the definition of 'medical device'. The report also recommended that the three directives governing medical devices (the MDD, the Active Implantable Medical Devices (AIMD) Directive 90/385/EEC and the In-vitro Medical Devices (IVDD) Directive 98/79/EC) should be made more consistent with each other.
