This paper presents a device and method to improve intrauterine device delivery and retention in the immediate postpartum period. This initial feasibility study illustrates that it is possible to temporarily tether a commercially available intrauterine device within the uterus of an immediately postpartum baboon. The results indicate this device and method are technically feasible, but further studies will be needed to evaluate safety and efficacy in reducing expulsion rates.","PeriodicalId":93509,"journal":{"name":"2020 Design of Medical Devices Conference (DMD 2020).

Many types of high-density packaging technologies, such as package-on-package, bare-die stack, flex folded package and Through Si Via (TSV) technologies, have been proposed and used to fulfill the request. Among them, embedded die technology is one of the promising technologies to realize miniaturization and high-density packaging. We have developed WABE™ (wafer and board level device embedded) technology for embedding dies into multilayer flexible printed circuit (FPC) boards. The WABE package is comprised of thin dies (85 μm thickness), multi-layer polyimide, adhesive films and conductive paste. The dies are sandwiched by polyimide films with Cu circuits (FPCs). The conductive paste provides electrical connections between the layers as well as the layer and embedded die. First, each FPC layer is fabricated individually, and via holes are filled with conductive paste, and the dies are mounted on certain layers. Then, all layers undergo a one-step co-lamination process, and they are pressed to cure the adhesive material and conductive paste at the same time. This WABE technology has enabled multiple dies to be embedded by the one-step lamination process. Even if multiple dies are embedded, the footprint of a package can be reduced drastically by embedding multiple dies vertically in stacks. This paper describes the details of the results of fabricating a test vehicle with six embedded dies (three-dies in two stacks side-by-side). The fabricated test vehicle had 14 copper layers with less than 0.9 mm thickness. This paper also reports the results of various reliability testing on the package. These results were obtained by electrical measurements of daisy chain patterns formed between some of the layers. The fabricated test vehicle showed high reliability based on the results of a moisture and heat test and heat-shock test. These results show that the WABE technology to embed multiple dies vertically in polyimide film is one of the most promising packaging technologies to significantly miniaturize electronic circuits such as medical electronics.","PeriodicalId":93509,"journal":{"name":"2020 Design of Medical Devices Conference (DMD 2020).

Today’s annuloplasty rings, used to restore MV function, impose significant constraints on the motion profile of the MV annulus. We present a selectively compliant ring that provides sufficient stiffness to stabilize a diseased annulus while allowing physiological annular dynamics. Ring design is informed by a finite element analysis and experimentally evaluated with in-vitro stereophotogrammetry. We compare the ring dynamics to commercially available semi-rigid rings as well as values found in literature for healthy annuli. The results demonstrate that motion of the selectively compliant ring is significantly closer to that of a healthy annulus based on standard metrics that define MV annular movement. Specifically, the metrics for the new ring compare to those in literature as follows: change in orifice area 12.5 ± 3% vs.10 ± 2%; change in anterior-posterior diam. 5.4 ± 0.3% vs. 7 ± 1%; change in inter-commissural diam. 6.6 ± 1.3% vs. 5 ± 1%.","PeriodicalId":93509,"journal":{"name":"2020 Design of Medical Devices Conference (DMD 2020).

{"title":"A Precise Scale-Up Method to Predict Particle Delivered Dose in a Human Respiratory System Using Rat Deposition Data: An In Silico Study","authors":"Hamideh Hayati, Yu Feng","doi":"10.1115/dmd2020-9060","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1115/dmd2020-9060","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 As surrogates to human beings, rats are used occasionally to study the therapeutic impact of inhaled pulmonary drug particles in microscale. To speculate human responses from rat studies, scale-up factors are widely used to extrapolate particle lung deposition from rat to human. However, available scale-up methods are highly simplified and not accurate, because they directly use the human-to-rat ratios of body weights (RBW) or lung surface areas (RSA) as the scale-up factor. To find a precise scale-up strategy, an experimentally validated Computational Fluid-Particle Dynamics (CFPD) was employed to simulate the transport and deposition of microparticles in both human and rate respiratory systems, which encompasses the pulmonary routes from mouth/nose to airways up to Generation 17 (G17) for human and G23 for the rat. Microparticles with the same range of Stk/Fr were injected into both models with the airflow at resting conditions. Numerical results indicate that particles (with the size ranging from 1 to 13 μm for humans and 0.6 to 6 μm for rat) have similar deposition pattern (DP) and deposition fraction (DF) in both models, which are resulted from both inertial impaction and gravitational sedimentation effects. A novel correlation is proposed to predict DFs in both human and rat respiratory systems as a function of the ratio of Stokes number to Froude number (Stk/Fr). Using the correlation as the novel scale-up tool, inter-species extrapolations can be precisely done on predicting particle depositions in human respiratory systems based on the deposition data in rats obtained from animal studies.","PeriodicalId":93509,"journal":{"name":"2020 Design of Medical Devices Conference (DMD 2020).
