In the past, various technologies have been proposed to this end, as e.g. RFIDs attached to or included in the instruments, contact-less identification by image analysis or (bar-, QR-) codes, or counting by human resources, but all of them having their individual drawbacks. Objective: We present and evaluate a new method to identify metallic-conductive surgical instruments using Low Frequency (LF) magnetic fields. Method: The investigated LF magnetic field approach is based on the IndLoc system developed by the Fraunhofer IIS - originally for metallic asset identification within the field of supply chain management - and is applied on small collection of 13 typical surgical tools (four scissors, two needle holders, four tweezers, two retractors, a bone curette) for open surgery. Results: 9 out of the 13 instruments can be correctly identified, two pairs (2 short and 2 medium tweezers) are too self-similar and could not discriminated correctly from each other. Conclusion: These initial experiments show that an LF-based identification of metallic surgical tools is feasible, but the system needs to be modified (with more and smaller coils) to increase the geometrical resolution to better distinguish between self-similar and potentially more objects.","PeriodicalId":10739,"journal":{"name":"Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135394549","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The technique is designed to immediately stabilize polymer-augmented pedicle screws (PAS) in deficient bone and avoid complications of loosening pedicle screws at the bone-screw interface, especially in osteoporotic patients. A polymer sleeve was designed as augmentation to improve screw anchorage after drilling the screw hole. By applying ultrasonic energy, the polymeric tube was molded into the pores of the host bone forming a strong and uniform bond with the adjacent bone. The original screw was then implanted into the denser bony environment leading to an enhanced immediate stability. The ISS-treated implants were compared to conventionally placed pedicle screws in ex-vivo cadaver bones (2 sheep spines, n = 6 implants per spine, total 12 screws) and in-vivo in a spinal sheep model (Swiss alpine sheep, n = 5, 4 implants per animal, total 20 screws). The primary stability of ISS-treated pedicle screws was increased in ex-vivo bone (+24% insertion torque (IT)) and in-vivo (+32.9% IT) in sheep spine. Removal torque (RT) was lower in the in PAS tested for 8 weeks in-vivo. The ISS technology demonstrated improved anchorage of pedicle screws in ex-vivo cadaver bones as well as in-vivo studies in sheep spine.","PeriodicalId":10739,"journal":{"name":"Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135394559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But especially novice runners are at risk to develop injuries as they tend to run with prejudicial posture. Hence, there has been considerable research to identify factors improving running performance. One of these factors is the correct movement of arms as a swinging pendulum during running. Based on this knowledge ergonomically shaped handgrip elements were designed to improve the posture of the shoulder-arm complex during running. The main objective of this study was the validation of the actual effectiveness on shoulder-arm posture of these handgrips. In this sense 25 adult, healthy persons without running experience were examined by motion capture analysis during running on a treadmill with and without the use of the handgrips. The focus of movement analysis was on changes of hand supination, shoulder abduction and shoulder rotation. Flexion of elbows and shoulders were not expected to change and thus, were investigated as an internal control. Significant changes were found in sense of a reduction of forearm pronation, shoulder abduction, and internal rotation of the shoulder, resulting in improved posture during running. At the same time, no significant changes were found in elbow flexion and shoulder flexion. Future studies are needed to investigate the effects of the detected improvement of arm posture on other important running parameters, such as trunk stability, movement of lower limbs, running economy, and risk of injury. These studies should also compare effects in competitive athletes, recreational runners, and novice runners.","PeriodicalId":10739,"journal":{"name":"Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135394986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While this is a topic for all fields of care, this challenge is especially relevant for intensive care units (ICUs). The noise harms patients, hinders the recovery process, or can even lead to psychosis. For the caregivers, noise causes an enormous stress level and in combination with the high number of clinically irrelevant or false alarms it leads to alarm fatigue and desensitization. These problems result in documented deaths of patients. Therefore, we present a demonstrator of a Silent ICU. Based on a distributed alarm system, the medical devices at the bedside do not create any audio alarm signals, as long as a remote alarm notification system is connected and works properly. An ICU bed place consists of devices from different manufacturers. Thus, a standardized interconnection is necessary. Therefore, we use IEEE 11073 Service-oriented Device Connectivity (SDC) to create a cross-manufacturer distributed alarm system with components from three different companies. A fourth company provides a documentation system for this demonstrator. Patients and caregivers will greatly benefit from Silent ICUs and smart distributed alarm systems that will be build based on interoperable cross-manufacturer environments.","PeriodicalId":10739,"journal":{"name":"Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135394991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Diagnosis is usually performed with Holter monitors over longer periods of time, causing discomfort to the patient. The proposed mixed-signal integrated circuit (IC) is designed for small patch electrocardiogram (ECG) devices and combines, an analog front-end (AFE) with tailored recording channel characteristics and 12-bit successive-approximation-register analog digital converter (SAR ADC) as well as an RISC-V based microcontroller (μC) for edge artificial intelligence (AI)-based AF-detection. The digital signal processing is supported with hardware accelerators. Including 160 kB of SRAM, the system on chip (SoC) requires 25.56 mm² in silicon area in a 180 nm technology. The recording channel shows promising simulation results with an input impedance of 230 MΩ, an input referred noise of below 1.6 μVrms and a CMMR of 95 dB. The digital part enables the integration of AI-based classification on the IC. Due to the flexibility of the software-based classification approach, this IC can also be used to detect other arrhythmias.","PeriodicalId":10739,"journal":{"name":"Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135394994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
