Abstract

Balloon forming is the fundamental processes by which the stents are manufactured that are utilized for angioplasty to cure critical heart diseases. Careful selection of various parameters such as pressure, temperature, along with the time duration, etc. affects the balloon quality and plays vital role in effectiveness of critical care of the patient. The proposed system converts the microprocessor controlled balloon forming unit to GUI based computer controlled balloon forming unit. Keeping most of the important variables of the balloon forming process same, and hence utilizing the same transducers, some new sensors are also introduced to avail more information on the operator station. The proposed system is comparatively not only more user-friendly and accurate, it also results into easy to expand and modify type simple but reliable as well as cost-effective solution.
