Ultrasonically powered piezoelectric generators for bio-implantable sensors: Plate versus diaphragm
This article is a comparative study of the design spaces of two bio-implantable acoustically excited generator architectures: the bulk-mode piezoelectric plate (plate) and the flexure-mode unimorph piezoelectric diaphragm (diaphragm). The acoustic to electrical power transducers, or generators, are part of an acoustic, or ultrasonic, power transfer system for implantable sensors and medical dev...
متن کاملTowards an Implantable Pulsed Mode Electrolytic Drug Delivery System
This work presents a prototype of an implantable drug delivery system that delivers pulsed doses of a low solubility drug by pulling bodily fluid into a reservoir with the drug in solid form, allowing the drug to dissolve to its maximum co ncentration, and then ejecting the drug laced fluid back into the tissue. The cyclical actuation of the drug delivery sy stem is performed using an electroly...
متن کاملMaterials and designs for wirelessly powered implantable light-emitting systems.
Strategies are presented to achieve bendable and stretchable systems of microscale inorganic light-emitting diodes with wireless powering schemes, suitable for use in implantable devices. The results include materials strategies, together with studies of the mechanical, electronic, thermal and radio frequency behaviors both in vitro and in in-vivo animal experiments.
متن کاملElectrolytic ablation of the rat pancreas: a feasibility trial
BACKGROUND Pancreatic cancer is a biologically aggressive disease with less than 20% of patients suitable for a "curative" surgical resection. This, combined with the poor 5-year survival indicates that effective palliative methods for symptom relief are required. Currently there are no ablative techniques to treat pancreatic cancer in clinical use. Tissue electrolysis is the delivery of a dire...
متن کاملElectrical impedance for an electrolytic cell.
We analyze in which experimental conditions the concept of electrical impedance is useful for an electrolytic cell. The analysis is performed by solving numerically the differential equations governing the phenomenon of the redistribution of the ions in the presence of an external electric field and comparing the results with the ones obtained by solving the linear approximation of these equati...
