Poor policy and inadequate regulation of medical technology is driving low-value care in Australia's private health system
Aust Health Rev. 2024 Mar 28. doi: 10.1071/AH24006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMillions of Australians use the private health system every year. They should receive safe, high-quality, value-based care. However, poor policy and inadequate regulation of medical technology is driving low-value care at great expense to consumers and the broader health system. Key drivers include the Prescribed List of Medical Devices and Human Tissue, gaps in quality and safety controls for devices being used, and marketing and conflicts of interest. All of these should be addressed to reduce low-value care in Australia's private health sy...

Catheter-related and Clinical Complications Associated with Contact Force-Sensing Irrigated Ablation Catheter
TactiFlex ™ Ablation Catheter, Sensor Enabled™ (Abbott,Minneapolis,MN) is an open-irrigation radiofrequency(RF) ablation catheter that merges contact force-sensing technology with a flexible tip design with real-time assessment of contact force vector and deflection indicator on the catheter tip.In additi on,the laser-cut flexible tip directs irrigation towards the area of greatest tissue contact thus allowing for more efficient cooling,less overall flow,and facilitates high RF power delivery.With continuous technological advances in catheter ablation,new device issues may arise with short- and long- term implications....

Guidelines for the Management of Patients with Orofacial Pain and Temporomandibular Disorders
The management of patients with orofacial pain and temporomandibular disorders is challenging. Recognizing the opportunity to advance patient care, in 2019 the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) convened representatives from the Food and Drug Administration, Medical Device Epidemiology Network (MDEpiNet), patient advocacy groups, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, and orofacial pain experts to identify specific steps to improve care for patients. In response, the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) created the Special Committee on Temporomandibular Joint Care (SCTMJC)...

A hydrogel-based ratiometric fluorescent sensor relying on rhodamine B labelled AIE-featured hyperbranched poly(amido amine) for heparin detection
Anal Chim Acta. 2024 Apr 29;1300:342466. doi: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342466. Epub 2024 Mar 11.ABSTRACTThe fluorescent flexible sensor for point-of-care quantification of clinical anticoagulant drug, Heparin (Hep), is still an urgent need of breakthrough. In this research, a hyperbranched poly(amido amine) (HPA) was decorated with tetraphenylethene (TPE) and Rhodamine B (RhB), constructing a ratiometric fluorescent sensor (TR-HPA) for Hep. When the sensor was exposed to Hep, the TPE units within the probe skeleton would aggregate, resulting in an increasing fluorescent emission at 483 nm. The 580 nm of fluorescence came from Rh...
