Abstract:
The paper topic is identification of medical instruments and equipment using the images preserved in Serbian medieval painting. This topic has not been the subject of special study in the Serbian science. Medical instruments and equipment make an integral part of iconography of saint physicians. The following medical instruments have been displayed: knives, probes, spoons, tweezers, as well as various carrying boxes for equipment (square-like and cylindrical) and cases, and glass vessels for medical lubricants. Identification has been carried out owing primarily to late Roman remains of medical instruments and equipment, while such remains originating from Byzantine period are very rare.

Abstract:
Backgrounds: In low income countries, hospital-acquired infections continue to develop in hospitalized patients, and may also affect medical staff. Medico-technical equipment sterilization is critical for prevention and safety care of nosocomial infections. Objective: To assess the quality of medico-technical equipment sterilization at the National University Hospital of Cotonou in 2013. Method: This cross-sectional and evaluative study was conducted at the National University Hospital of Cotonou from 10th June to 04th July 2013. A sample of 51 health workers involved in the of medico-technical equipment sterilization system, two (02) administrative authorities, the responsible of National Committee for the Fight against nosocomial infections in the hospital, 41 sterilized instruments and compresses were assessed in the study. Health workers were observed in their work environment before undergoing an individual interview as well as the administrative authorities and the Responsible of the National Committee for the Fight against nosocomial infections. Sterilized instruments are analyzed in microbiology laboratory. Results: More than half of the participants were male (52.9%). The average age of respondents was 41 ± 7.5 years. The sterilization unit of the hospital was managed by common surgical department of the hospital and its mission was to provide sterile medico-technical equipment. The sterilization unit did not meet the standard architecture of sterilization environment. Equipment sterilization procedure did not meet standards of quality assurance. There was no preventive maintenance procedure for autoclave and poupinel that were used for sterilization of instruments. No indoor cleaning and air sterilization of the service of sterilization were planned. However, equipment sterilization supplies were available, and 13.72% of workers surveyed were well-skilled. Microbiological tests showed that 48.8% of sterilized medical equipment was contaminated by Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacter cloacae. Conclusion: The quality of instrument sterilization system in the HKM National University hospital of Cotonou was poor. Sterilized equipment was contaminated by pathogens. Medical equipment sterilization process needs improvement to prevent hospital-acquired infections.

Abstract:
AbstractTwo models of hot water washer disinfectors (Decomat 128 and Hospital A, Euroclean Canada Inc; Ontario, Canada) were evaluated by two methods for their efficacy in disinfecting anesthesia equipment. In the first method, three different microbial suspensions were each sealed into 30 capillary tubes. In the second method, corrugated anesthesia tubes were rinsed with suspensions of each of two bacterial strains. The tubes then underwent a standard cycle in the hot water washer disinfectors and were subsequently tested for growth of microorganisms. All experiments were repeated three times, and the temperature was registered in all cases. In the capillary test, growth was rarely detected (13/540 tubes) and the inactivation factor for both apparatus was > 5 log,,. In the rinse test, no growth was detected. The mean temperature for 15 disinfection cycles was 84.2 ± 0.8°C for Decomat 128 and 88.9 ± 0.5% for Hospital A. However, for Decomat 128 we observed a variation of 3°C from one disinfection cycle to another and a progressive reduction of 2.2°C over a series of five consecutive complete cycles. Both methods gave reproducible results. Under our experimental conditions, both hot water washer disinfectors proved to be efficacious for the disinfection of reusable anesthesia equipment.

Abstract:
Hospital reusable medical equipment (RME) includes any items that are intended to be reprocessed and reused indefinitely, including surgical instruments, dental equipment, endoscopes, and others. Such equipment represent a significant portion of a hospital's inventory costs and recently have generated significant patient cross-contamination concerns due to reprocessing cleaning failures. This paper discusses recent applications of industrial and systems engineering (ISyE) methods within healthcare organizations to help manage, understand, and improve RME processes, including quality control (QC), reliability, patient safety, facility layout, queuing networks, and inventory management models. Several examples demonstrate the value of these approaches for improved reprocessing management of RME technology.

Abstract:
Abstract: In the context of increasing healthcare demand, as a result of an aging population, and current budgetary constraints, as a result of reduced public resources, the decision to invest in efficient medical equipment is a challenge for most health facilities, constantly concerned with promoting innovative and sustainable solutions, as well as results-based ones, in order to increase the value of health technologies and the overall benefits of patients. In order to achieve the balance between safety, quality, costs and benefits and the realization of the best value of medical equipment, the decision-making process requires a multilateral evaluation of financial, clinical and social impact instruments, represented by relevant profitability, life cycle costs, results delivered and overall productivity. In the case of procurement of medical equipment, the lowest price of an economic offer is not an award criterion that strictly reflects the value or efficiency of the technology and departmental procurement structures must include in the evaluation strategies and complementary factors to the process, to add value to the medical organization.

Abstract:
Acupuncture has had a long and interesting history. However acupuncture still faces challenge from its mechanism explanation. The traditional acupuncture theory may not fully explain electroacupuncture. This study carries out an investigation into electroacupuncture from bioenergy, bioelectricity, and electrotherapy points of view. An experimental and theoretical study of the electrical property of acupoints is conducted. An equivalent model of tissues under electroacupuncture electrical field is developed. In conjunction with this, an improved technique is used in the resistance test to investigate the electrical properties of acupoints, in which the "least-value hunting" method, forcecontrollable probe, and square electrical waveform have been adopted. The currently used apparatus for electroacupuncture is improved by the development of computer-based electroacupuncture instrumentation. On the basis of this development, the methodology of Internet-based remote control and monitoring is introduced in the therapeutic and training process. A standardised and quantified elctroacupuncture is investigated through the implementation of a fuzzy decision making system. The fuzzy controllers are developed and embedded in a PC-based instrumentation system to overcome "accommodation", which occurs during the electroacupuncture process.

Abstract:
This study examined the signaling strength, or marketing power, of the most common qualifications of entry-level biomedical equipment technicians (BMETs) in Texas, based on stated hiring preferences of BMET managers, using order ranking of fictitious resumes. This study also sought to determine whether certification status, education background, military training background as a BMET, or type of employer [hospital or ISO] of the hiring manager had an effect on hiring preference for applicant qualifications of associate degree, military training as a BMET, or certified biomedical equipment technician (CBET) certification candidacy. Participants were asked to rank 16 fictitious resumes representing the most common qualifications of entry-level BMETs and to fill out a background questionnaire regarding their education, military, certification, and employer. The number of times each resume ranked in first place was tabulated and inter-rater reliability was calculated. Resumes with qualifications of associate degree versus military training as a BMET were compared at three levels of work experience. A chi-square test for independence was conducted for the comparisons to determine whether work experience influenced preference. Chi-square tests were also conducted for comparisons of associate degree with candidacy for CBET certification versus associate degree and military training with CBET candidacy versus military training. No statistically significant results were found for the chi-square tests, indicating that work experience did not significantly influence participant preferences for the compared qualifications. BMET hiring managers indicated a preference for combinations of qualifications rather than any single qualification. Correlations in hiring managers' educational background, certification status, military training as a BMET, type of employer, and preference for applicant qualifications were examined. Statistically significant correlations were found between participants' preference for associate degree or military training and level of education, military training background, and type of employer. Statistically significant correlations were also found between participants' preference of military training with CBET candidacy over military training alone and military training as a BMET background as well as certification background.

Abstract:
Since the first microfluidic device was developed in the early 1950s, when the basics for today’s inkjet technology were set, thousands of publications have appeared related to the topic. The increasing interest on these technologies is caused by its ability to be scaled and its rapid development, which allows manipulating and detecting small quantities of analites even at the cellular scale. The integration of microfluidic technologies with specific sensors and actuators at minute scales in order to achieve a set of automated laboratory operations and perform a particular solution for a specific application, generally on the life sciences and chemistry fields, was defined as Lab-on-a-chip (LoC). LoC devices have the potential to become a powerful technology for some fields, such as health, food security or environmental control. Their low cost and portability make them also suitable to improve medical diagnosis and research in developing countries. Moreover, these systems permit also to explore new methods for manipulation and characterization of cells by means of electrical cell properties, by using techniques such as dielectrophoresis (DEP) or impedance spectroscopy (IS). In fact, the dielectrophoretic force allows manipulating cells, taking advantage of their electrical properties, by applying an electric field. Likewise, impedance allows measuring electrical properties of materials and, used wisely, inform about characteristics such as presence, composition or size of cells or other biological materials. This work aims, in its final stage, to exploit the combined potential of both techniques, DEP and IS, in a compact system for bioanalytical bench-top applications. The creation of the complete device has been a long procedure alternating theoretical calculations and experimental tests. It has included different steps such as the design of the need electronic equipment stages, the study of different microfluidic designs, an accurate bacteria concentration and manipulation protocol definition, and the study of the viability of the bacteria populations recovered with our device. These studies have made possible to finally obtain an automated bacteria concentrator for microbiology, food, water and environmental control applications while performing impedance cell analysis to monitor bacteria accumulation during the process. The system has been adjusted and proved for the real case of Escherichia Coli (E. coli) concentration and analysis. E. coli presents pathogenic variants that cause morbidity and mortality worldwide being therefore a topic of interest. E. coli is one of the main antimicrobials resistant pathogens in healthcare-associated infections reported to the National Healthcare Safety Network, being the primary cause of widespread pathologies such as significant diarrheal and extra-intestinal diseases or urinary tract infections. Furthermore, E. coli can be found as a bacterial food contamination and causes avian coli-bacillosis, one of the major bacterial diseases in the poultry industry and the most common avian disease communicable to humans. Currently, bacterium presence detection involve long time culture processes only to obtain a valid sample which could be properly detected. DEP concentration is a strong selective manipulation method which allows reducing sample preparation time. Moreover, by taking profit of IS, E. coli could be rapidly detected in the same equipment. For that reason, it is thought the proposed devices will be a useful tool for some current microbiology laboratories. Hence the mainly aims of the present thesis are: (I) to prove the feasibility of custom DEP generator for controlling bacteria and find the best signal to accomplish this, (II) to look for the best microfluidic chip option for bacteria preconcentration purposes on bioanalytical applications, (III) to test the feasibility of a custom IS device and (IV) to use the previous studies to design a complete electronic equipment, taken profit of combination of both techniques to have an autonomous system (V) To demonstrate the proof of concept of the full device with the real case of E. coli concentration.
El objetivo de esta tesis es el diseño de una instrumentación capaz de manipular y caracterizar células, a fin de realizar análisis más exhaustivos de elementos biológicos y acelerar procesos de detección de patógenos para aplicaciones de diagnóstico o de control de calidad de alimentos. El dispositivo se centra en dos tipos de técnicas eléctricas para la manipulación y detección de células: La dielectroforesis (DEP) y la medición de la bioimpedancia. La DEP permite manipular material biológico por medio de campos eléctricos, aprovechando las propiedades eléctricas de la célula y el medio en que se encuentra. La manipulación es por tanto ajustable, mediante el control de estas propiedades, así como a través de la geometría de los electrodos usados, la frecuencia y el módulo de la tensión aplicada. Por otro lado, la IS permite caracterizar material biológico mediante su comportamiento eléctrico en frecuencia. La medida se realiza a través de la aplicación de una corriente alterna controlada y la monitorización del efecto sobre el tejido mediante potencial eléctrico. Los dispositivos de IS son fácilmente integrables con técnicas dielectroforéticas de manipulación, fusionando manipulación con detección. En esta tesis, la combinación de estas técnicas permite la concentración de pequeños patógenos en grandes volúmenes de muestras y su posterior detección. Para ello, se crean diversos módulos de instrumentación electrónica. Algunos, están dedicados a generar señales alternas desfasadas a frecuencias óptimas para la manipulación de patógenos (módulo DEP). Otros, combinan módulos de generación, lectura y tratamiento digital, para la monitorización del comportamiento eléctrico de células (IS). Los módulos diseñados son validados en un entorno real controlado para concentrar y detectar la bacteria Escherichia Coli en grandes volúmenes de agua. Como resultado, se obtiene una electrónica modular válida, autónoma, portátil y de bajo coste, capaz de disminuir tiempos de preparación y detección de muestras en laboratorio.

Abstract:
Modern implantable and body worn medical devices leverage wireless telemetry to improve patient experience and expand therapeutic options. Wireless medical devices are subject to a unique set of regulations in which monitoring of the available frequency spectrum is a requirement. To this end, implants use software protocols to assess the in-band activity to determine which channel should be used. These software protocols take valuable processing time and possibly degrade the operational lifetime of the battery. Implantable medical devices often take advantage of a single chip transceiver as the physical layer for wireless communications. Embedding the channel assessment task in the transceiver hardware would free the limited resources of the microprocessor. This thesis proposes hardware modifications to existing transceiver architectures which would provide an automated channel assessment means for implantable medical devices. The results are applicable beyond medical device applications and could be employed to benefit any low-power, wireless, battery-operated equipment.

Abstract:
The Leksell Gamma Knife® (LGK) is a device for performing radiosurgery. The LGK contains approximately 200 radioactive sources whose beams intersect in a focal point in order to treat brain tumours. Quality assurance tools are used at Elekta to indirectly assess the number of sources in an LGK from the total amount of radiation. In order to increase patient safety, regulatory agencies have been asking for evidential proof of the number of sources in the LGK. This thesis' goal is to directly measure each source in the LGK and optimize the total detection time. To do this, a source detection system was developed with two parts, a radiation detection system and a moving gantry. Initial tests of the design were performed at Elekta and a final test was performed on an LGK at Karolinska Universitetssjukhuset. The results show that the proposed design has the possibility of detecting all sources in an LGK.

Abstract:
Through a needs-based approach we sought to reduce instrument drops during endourological surgery. To this end, we designed and validated an endourology equipment organization device: the cord caddy. Iterative computer aided design and fused deposition model prototyping lead to the development of a machined functional prototype to accommodate the wide-variety of cables, cords, wires and equipment used in endourologic cases. Over 20 consecutive endourological surgeries, use of the cord caddy demonstrated that it met most of the design requirements, aside from disposability and basket/ureteroscope storage. Assessment of these requirements was precluded by the inability to test a sterile version of the device at our institution. Future plans include validating a sterile disposable device in the operating room.

Abstract:
The use of three-dimensional scanning techniques in the medical field has become increasingly relevant. Laser projection systems have been applied onto human skin tissue in a variety of ways, especially in navigated surgery. However, a highly accurate and portable scanning system with the ability to analyze human tissue from multiple recording directions has yet to be developed and certified as a Class I medical device. This project aims to find the ideal setup of a portable, intuitive and certified scanning system of human tissue without the need of projective equipment. The scanning tool consists of a stereo camera by Northern Digital Instruments (NDI) and an infrared laser module. This paper presents the system’s ideal parameter settings while varying its accuracy when applying a laser module with wavelength of 850nm onto human tissue.

Abstract:
Single element ultrasonic Doppler velocimeter flow measurement instruments are available (Metflow) that allow velocity measurement along the main lobe of the transducer through gated processing of Doppler shift from echoes from targets in the flow. Correlation of target migration through the time gates has been used to supplement the Doppler data, and to measure void wave speeds when the targets are bubbles in the liquid flow. These methods are developed using helium bubbles in water flow with optical verification, and then used with helium bubbles in mercury. A second method for bubble rise velocity is presented using conventional 2-D medical ultrasound imaging equipment by Terason, with a 12L5V transducer, to develop an ultrasonic imaging analogue to conventional Particle Image Velocimetry. This system is also first tested in the water with helium bubbles using optical verification, and then in the mercury with helium bubbles.
