Creganna-Tactx Medical specialises in the design and development of what it calls intelligent catheters: devices that integrate several technologies to perform advanced functions such as active feedback, sensing, pressure monitoring and real-time diagnostics. Developing catheters that blend these capabilities requires knowledge of several distinct product areas that include arrays, chips, microelectromechanical systems, photonics, optics and mechanical design, as well as expertise in the integration of these technologies into a device that can achieve clinical objectives. Offering mechanical design and integration services to medical device companies, the service provider can meet the challenges of catheter performance and payload deliverability. Integration activities include incorporating new technologies, shielding and isolating subsystems requiring protection, ensuring functional continuity between the proximal and distal ends of the device, designing to meet US FDA requirements on usability, taking into account human factors and industrial design considerations, and optimising manufacturing processes.
