By using a dual rod structure and reasonably arranging the damping channel gap, the influence of mechanical friction and zero-field damping force on the feedback force during tissue progression is minimized. This paper introduces the acquisition and modeling analysis of raw data, and based on this, the design, simulation, and mechanical testing of the simulator are carried out. Finally, a performance testing platform for the simulator is established to evaluate its tracking performance of the expected puncture strength and the reproducibility of the puncture sensation. The results show that the experimental puncture strength deviates from the expected puncture strength by 0.35 N to 0.61 N in the crucial steps of breaking through the supraspinous ligament, interspinous ligament, ligamentum flavum, and dura mater, with a relative error below 10 %.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49836,"journal":{"name":"Medical Engineering & Physics","volume":"132 ","pages":"Article 104240"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142271529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Machine learning (ML)-based algorithms that use features extracted from electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are known to provide good accuracy in predicting various CVDs. Thus, in order to build more effective and efficient machine learning models, it is necessary to extract significant features from ECGs. In order to reduce overfitting and training overhead and improve model performance even more, feature selection or dimensionality reduction is essential. In this regard, the current work uses the grey wolf optimization (GWO) technique to pick a reduced feature set after extracting pertinent characteristics from ECG signals in order to identify five different types of CVDs. On the basis of the feature relevance of the chosen features, a feature-specific extreme gradient boosting approach (FS-XGB) is also suggested. The suggested FS-XGB classifier's performance is contrasted with that of other machine learning techniques, including gradient boosting method, AdaBoost, naïve Bayes, and support vector machine (SVM). The proposed methodology achieves a maximum classification accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and AUC value of 98.8 %, 100 %, 99.8 %, 100 %, and 98.8 %, respectively, with just seven optimal features, significantly fewer than the number of features used in existing works.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49836,"journal":{"name":"Medical Engineering & Physics","volume":"132 ","pages":"Article 104239"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142327168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinically, myocardial baseline impedance (BI) is one of the important factors affecting the effectiveness of ablation. We aim at finding suitable ablation protocols and coping strategies by analyzing the ablation effects and myocardial impedance changes of bipolar RFA under different BIs. In this research, a three-dimensional local myocardial computer model was constructed for bipolar RFA simulation, and <em>in vitro</em> experimental data were used to validate accuracy. Four fixed low-power levels (20 W, 25 W, 30 W, and 35 W) and six myocardial BIs (91.02 Ω, 99.83 Ω, 111.03 Ω, 119.77 Ω, 130.03 Ω, and 135.45 Ω) were set as initial conditions, with an ablation duration of 120-s. In the context of low-power and long-duration (LPLD) ablation, the maximum TID (TID<sub>M</sub>) decreased by 21–32 Ω, depending on the BI. In cases where steam pop did not occur, TID<sub>M</sub> increased with the increase in power. For the same power, there was no significant difference in TID<sub>M</sub> for the range of BIs. In cases where steam pop occurred, for every 1 Ω increase in BI, TID<sub>M</sub> increased by 0.34–0.41 Ω. The simulation results also showed that using a higher power resulted in a smaller decrease in TID<sub>M</sub>.

Errors in load application can be attributed to both the control system and the intrinsic sample response. Moreover, the presence of friction in the setup can have an impact on the measured outcome. The optimization of setup parameters can substantially improve the ability to simulate spinal loading conditions and obtain reliable data on implant performance. In this study, a reproducible kinematic test protocol was developed to evaluate the sensitivity of the kinetic response (i.e., measured loads, moments, and stiffnesses) of a cervical disc prosthesis to several testing parameters. In this context, five ceramic ball and socket sample implants were mounted in a 6 DOF material testing machine and tested with a constant axial compressive force of 100 N in two motion modes: 1) flexion-extension (±7.5°) and 2) lateral bending (±6°). Parameters including rotation rate, slider friction, friction between the samples' articulating surfaces, and moment arm were considered to determine their effects on measured kinetic parameters. The sensitivity analysis indicated that all setup parameters except friction between the samples' articulating surfaces had a substantial effect on the results. The findings were then compared to predictions from a free body diagram to determine the optimal setup parameters. Consequently, the setup with the lowest rotation rate and employing passive sliders yielded results that were consistent with the free body diagram.
