Congestive heart failure, a condition caused by a malfunctioning heart that is unable to pump enough blood and oxygen to meet the body’s needs, is an increasingly important cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. With improvements in the care of other cardiac conditions, more patients have developed dilated cardiomyopathy, which is the final common pathway for many cardiac illnesses and a common cause of congestive heart failure. Kalorama Information's Congestive Heart Failure, Major World Markets series looks at markets for...Published: September 1, 2005 | Price: $995.00 – $7,000.00
In the industrial world, over 240 million people lack one or more teeth. It is estimated that 40% of the western population is missing one tooth or more. In the United States, approximately 10% is the population is totally edentulous, and every year about two million Americans loose a tooth due to sporting accidents. Although the success of modern dentistry in the United States has vastly decreased the edentulous rate in each succeeding generation, it is estimated there are about...Published: June 1, 2005 | Price: $995.00 – $1,990.00
With the promise of improved outcomes and shorter recovery times and costs, endoscopic surgery has evolved into an accepted surgical discipline in most therapeutic areas. However, spine surgeons in particular have been slow to embrace this new technology over the past decade or so. Challenges specific to the spinal column have made the adoption of minimally invasive surgery difficult, but endoscope manufacturers have begun to take advantage of technological advances in endoscopic visualization and other arrears to optimize the minimal-access...Published: February 1, 2005 | Price: $995.00 – $1,990.00
Computer-based technologies offer significant potential for improving the clinical outcomes of patients. Computer software and hardware, as well as the systems they control, have begun to impact the manner in which surgeons design, plan, simulate and perform surgery. In the last few years, automated and computer-assisted techniques have found increased use in surgical procedures as tools for performing difficult neurosurgery, cranio-facial surgery and some orthopedic procedures. These techniques give the surgeon more advanced capabilities than were available previously, such as...Published: February 1, 2005 | Price: $995.00 – $1,990.00
Neurological catheters, also known as microcatheters, are small devices that can navigate the intricate intracranial vasculature of the brain. These catheters--some on the market, others in development--are used for a variety of applications, including aneurysm occlusion, chronic pain relief, targeted drug delivery, tumor embolization, treating vascular malformations, brachytherapy, and vasospasm therapy. They also promise to be extremely useful in the delivery of therapeutic genes or stem cells to patients who may have a variety of neurological diseases. This report analyzes...Published: August 1, 2004 | Price: $995.00 – $1,910.00
Blood banking has been the most dynamic testing segment to adopt molecular diagnostics approaches since their introduction. Screening for HIV, HCV and HBV in donated blood, plasma and organs has largely been done by immunoassay procedures. In conjunction with background screening, this has become a very effective approach toward guaranteeing the safety of the blood/organ supply. However, there is a lag time between infection with these viruses and the production of antibodies against them. In some cases, such as HBV,...Published: June 1, 2003 | Price: $995.00 – $2,992.00
According to the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) more than 1,000 drugs are in various stages of development. Similarly, breakthroughs in the medical device arena such as coronary stents, implantable defibrillators, and minimally invasive bypass surgery and advances in DNA-based tests and other advanced diagnostics are detecting cancer and other diseases earlier when they are more treatable are moving from dream to reality. It is obvious that even if all of these drugs and devices make it to...Published: July 1, 2004 | Price: $895.00 – $1,790.00
