Abstract:
Recent advances in soft materials and mechanics activate development of many new types of electrical medical implants. Electronic implants that provide exceptional functions, however, usually require more electrical power, resulting in shorter period of usages although many approaches have been suggested to harvest electrical power in human bodies by resolving the issues related to power density, biocompatibility, tissue damage, and others. Here, we report an active photonic power transfer approach at the level of a full system to secure sustainable electrical power in human bodies. The active

Abstract:
Dental implants are, nowadays, established surgical devices for the restoration of lost teeth. Considered as an alternative for traditional prosthetic appliances, dental implants surpass them in reliability and patient feedback. Local drug delivery around the implants promotes osseointegration and reduces peri-implantitis. However, there are currently no methods of a multiple, precise topical administration of drugs to the implant area. Engineering coatings on the implants, drug application on carriers during implantation, or gingival pockets do not meet all requirements of dental surgeons. Th

Abstract:
All artificial organ systems and medical devices that operate in direct contact with blood elicit activation of coagulation and platelets, and their long-term use often necessitates antithrombotic therapies that carry significant cost and bleeding risk. Thrombomodulin (TM) is a major endogenous inhibitor of blood coagulation localized on the endothelial cell surface. The overall objective of this research is to develop clinically durable synthetic materials by incorporating TM as a solid-supported film to actively and sustainably attenuate thrombus formation at the blood-contacting interface.

Abstract:
AbstractOne of the major issues related to medical devices and especially urinary stents are infections caused by different strains of bacteria and fungi, mainly in light of the recent rise in microbial resistance to existing antibiotics. Lately, it has been shown that nanomaterials could be superior alternatives to conventional antibiotics. Generally, nanoparticles are used for many applications in the biomedical field primarily due to the ability to adjust and control their physicochemical properties as well as their great reactivity due to the large surface-to-volume ratio. This has led to the formation of a new research field called nanomedicine which can be defined as the use of nanotechnology and nanomaterials in diagnostics, imaging, observing, prevention, control, and treatment of diseases. For example, coverings or coatings based on nanomaterials are now seen as a promising strategy for preventing or treating biofilms formation on healthcare kits, implants, and medical devices. Toxicity, inappropriate delivery, or degradation of conventionally used drugs for the treatment of infections may be avoided by using nanoparticles without or with encapsulated/immobilized active substances. Most of the materials which are used and examined for the preparation of the nanoparticles with encapsulated/immobilized active substances or smart reactive nanomaterials with antimicrobial effects are polymers, naturally derived antimicrobials, metal-based and non-metallic materials. This chapter provides an overview of the current state and future perspectives of the nanoparticle-based systems based on these materials for prevention, control, or elimination of biofilm-related infections on urinary stents. It also addresses manufacturing conditions indicating the huge potential for the improvement of existing and development of new promising stent solutions.

AbstractRecent advances in the MR conditional safety assessment of active implantable medical devices (AIMDs) have begun providing guidelines in the development of transfer functions for evaluating risk to the patient due to RF-induced heating. This work introduces the complexity of the analysis of RF-induced heating and explores the impact of the computational human model (CHM) on the resulting analysis. Through historical analysis techniques, simplified structures, and real medical device geometries, the interaction of the AIMD lead with the tissue simulating medium (TSM) can be better understood. Finally, a general guiding principle for MR manufacturers is identified, whereby the thickness of the lead insulation can be used to determine the appropriate TSM for the most accurate in vivo predictions of RF-induced heating.
