The original clinical thermometer standard includes requirements for evaluating tympanic (ear) thermometers using identified reference blackbody sources. However, one of the challenges in reviewing the standard is to understand if the reference blackbody sources identified for ear thermometers are still usable for evaluating the laboratory accuracy of forehead thermometers. In order to answer this challenge, four brand new forehead thermometers from two different manufacturers are evaluated at NMC. Two reference blackbody sources, one JIS standard source with very small opening and one NMC source with larger opening, are used for the evaluation. In order to use JIS standard source, two types of adaptors, one supplied by one of the manufactures, one 3D printed, are evaluated. The measurement results together with their measurement uncertainties are presented and analysed. Suitable adaptors are identified and recommended.","PeriodicalId":39637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Engineering and Technology","volume":"47 1","pages":"29-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10827346","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}

Additionally, it was observed that when utilising a laparoscopic tool a similar trend in particle distributions were seen between either insufflation and access system at the opening of the Access Port and trocar. Evacuation times for SSPM removal within the AirSeal® System showed an overall average to ≥95% reduction of 5.64 min within the surgical cavity, 3.69 min at the Access Port opening, and 3.61 min within the smoke evacuation line. The overall average for the traditional insufflation and access system was 9.38 min within the surgical cavity and 6.06 min at the trocar opening.

The purpose of this study is to further understand the mechanobiology of heart valve leaflet tissue and the VICs under impact forces. Two novel computational and experimental platforms were developed to study the effect of impact load on the VICs to monitor for apoptosis. The first objective was to design and develop an apparatus to experimentally study viability (apoptosis) of the porcine heart valve leaflet tissue VICs in the aortic position under controlled impact forces. Apoptosis was assessed based on terminal transferase dUTP nick end-labelling (TUNEL) assay. The second objective was to develop a computational platform to estimate the stress and strain fields in the vicinity of VICs when the tissue experiences impact forces. A nonlinear finite element (FE) model with an anisotropic, hyperelastic and heterogeneous material model for the matrix and cells was developed. Preliminary results confirm that interstitial cells are successfully resistant to impact loads up to 30 times more than normal physiological conditions. Additionally, the structure and composition of heart valve leaflet tissue provides a mechanical shield for VICs protecting them from excessive mechanical forces such as impact loads. Although, the entire tissue may experience excessive stresses, which may lead to structural damage, the stresses around and near VICs remain consistency low. Results of this study may be used for heart valve leaflet tissue-engineering, as well as further understanding the mechanobiology of the VICs in health and disease.","PeriodicalId":39637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Engineering and Technology","volume":"47 1","pages":"54-66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10475644","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 different machine learning classifiers used are Bagged Ensemble, ID3, Naive Bayes and Multiclass Support Vector Machine. The classification of the AD and PD with the reference of a healthy brain is done by comparing the input image with the trained samples in the PET image database.

In cases of low functioning autism, an individual can have serious speech and language disabilities. In response to the need of parents and therapists dealing with autistic children, social robots have been developed and incorporated into assisting children with autism. Research studies have proved the possibility of improving autistic children's lives using social robots. However, not any social robot can successfully fulfil this task, since autistic children are sensitive to certain behaviours, shapes, and colours. The proposed integrated application and humanoid robot, Otisma has been designed and developed after an intensive literature research. Otisma can be used as an educational and communicational tool with autistic children. Otisma aids educators by using applied behaviour analysis (ABA) which is a scientifically validated method that helps autistic children work through areas of severe developmental delay, like language and nonverbal communication. Different lessons can be explored using an application that is controlled by the therapist. Otisma is an efficient educational tool that facilitates the learning process to maximise social skills for children with autism. Otisma is portable, affordable, user friendly, and can be equally used by therapists in clinics or parents at home.","PeriodicalId":39637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Engineering and Technology","volume":"47 1","pages":"44-53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10827331","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}
