Solution Overview

Problem

Existing mobile interventional catheter rooms are too large, cumbersome, and slow to deploy, leading to delayed treatment for acute myocardial infarction patients, resulting in high mortality rates during transportation.

Innovation Solution

A compact, ambulance-type mobile catheter room equipped with a robotic angiography system, wireless medical IoT, self-generating system, and antibacterial environment, enabling rapid deployment and minimally invasive treatments for cardiovascular diseases.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If a traditional mobile interventional catheter room is used, then the interventional devices and surgeons can be delivered to the patient site, but the shelter system has large volume, large deployment area, long deployment time and long folding time, preventing timely diagnosis and treatment

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedeployment timeVSAvoidshelter system volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The mobile interventional catheter room is divided into modular components including a catheter room module, support module, and power module that can be independently assembled and disassembled. This segmentation enables rapid deployment and folding without requiring a large shelter structure, directly reducing deployment time while maintaining full interventional functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The catheter room module is designed to be nested within or attached to the support module, with equipment containers and surgical instruments stored in compact, space-efficient configurations. This nesting approach minimizes the overall volume and deployment area required, allowing the system to be quickly assembled and folded without occupying large spaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

2Speed

If a traditional mobile interventional catheter room is used, then interventional surgery can be performed, but the system cannot provide immediate surgical rescue according to patient condition during transportation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresponse speedVSAvoidflexibility during transportation
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The mobile interventional catheter room employs a dynamic support module that can be quickly adjusted or removed based on patient conditions and transportation requirements. The system transitions from a stationary catheter room configuration to a mobile, flexible arrangement during transportation, enabling immediate surgical rescue when needed while maintaining ease of operation through rapid reconfiguration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The support module serves multiple functions: it provides structural support for the catheter room, acts as a mobile platform for transportation, and can be independently configured for different surgical scenarios. This multi-functionality enables the system to respond quickly to varying patient conditions during transportation without requiring separate specialized equipment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Productivity

If a miniaturized cardiovascular interventional catheter room is designed, then mobility and response speed are improved, but the system must maintain high integration and strong maneuverability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresponse speedVSAvoidsystem integration
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The catheter room module, support module, and power module are merged into an integrated system with standardized connection interfaces and unified control systems. This merging achieves high integration that simplifies operation and maintenance while maintaining rapid response speed, as the integrated system can be quickly deployed and configured without coordinating multiple separate pieces of equipment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
