Toward biomaterial-based implantable photonic devices
Optical technologies are essential for the rapid and efficient delivery of health care to patients. Efforts have begun to implement these technologies in miniature devices that are implantable in patients for continuous or chronic uses. In this review, we discuss guidelines for biomaterials suitable for use in vivo. Basic optical functions such as focusing, reflection, and diffraction have been...
متن کاملImplantable Port Devices, Complications and outcome in Pediatric Cancer, a Retrospective Study
Abstract Background Peripheral blood vessels, due to availability are used for many years in cancer patients, however in patients with potentially harmful drugs to skin (vesicant drugs) or difficult accessibility to vessels, the use of implantable port (totally implantable venous access port-TIVAP)devices with central vascular access are important. ...
متن کاملPOKs Based Low Energy Authentication Scheme for Implantable Medical Devices
Implantable medical devices (IMDs), including pacemakers, implanted cardiac defibrillators and neurostimulator are medical devices implanted into patients’ bodies via surgery and are capable of monitoring patient’s conditions and delivering therapy. They often have built-in radio modules to support data reading and parameters reconfiguration according to the commands from external programmers. ...
متن کاملHeart failure devices: implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and biventricular pacing therapy.
Although the age-adjusted mortality from heart disease has declined in the United States, cardiovascular disease remains the No. 1 cause of death.1,2 Patients with cardiac disease generally die of one of 2 causes: sudden, unexpected cardiac death or progressive heart failure. Chronic heart failure (CHF) has become an epidemic in the United States. Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) th...
متن کاملImplantable Cardiac Devices
Electrical cardiac pacing for the management of bradyarrhythmias was first described in 1952, and permanent transvenous pacing devices were introduced into clinical practice in the early 1960s. The first devices for endocardial defibrillation were implanted in surviving victims of sudden cardiac death in 1980. Implanted electrical devices for the management of cardiac dysrhythmias have changed ...
