The project focuses on improving the safety of minimally invasive surgical procedures. More specifically, it involves the exploration of custom catheters and sheaths that allow surgeons to access the circulatory system with ease. Though minimally invasive, these procedures run the risk of introducing air into the circulatory system that can lead to a range of complications from impaired brain function to death. With this in mind, Baylis Medical Company has initiated a project to develop a solution to this problem a catheter that enables minimally invasive procedures that increases patient safety through the reduction of clinically relevant air ingress

该项目的重点是提高微创外科手术的安全性。更具体地说，它涉及到定制导管和鞘的探索，使外科医生能够轻松进入循环系统。虽然微创，但这些手术有将空气引入循环系统的风险，可能导致一系列并发症，从脑功能受损到死亡。考虑到这一点，Baylis医疗公司已经启动了一个项目，以开发解决这一问题的导管，该导管能够实现微创手术，通过减少临床相关的空气进入来提高患者的安全性
