Abstract:

Haemodialysis 64Haemo(dia)filtration 68Peritoneal dialysis (PD) 70The first human haemodialysis was performed in 1943 by Willem Kolff in The Netherlands for the treatment of acute renal failure. Following this, haemodialysis was adopted for the treatment of acute renal failure in the immediate post-war years and then for chronic renal failure from the 1960s. Currently haemodialysis is the most common form of replacement treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Haemodialysis is one method used for treatment of acute renal failure, and ESRD patients will develop critical illness. An understanding of the principles of haemodialysis and how it is carried out is therefore essential....

Abstract:

Abstract While intermittent hemodialysis for the treatment of patients with acute renal failure was introduced by Willem Kolff in 1943, the development of chronic hemodialysis therapy for patients with end-stage renal disease was not feasible until the 1960s with the introduction of the external arteriovenous shunt by Quinton and colleagues. The 1960s were further characterized by the development of the endogenous arteriovenous fistula, and the subsequent development of prosthetic subcutaneous interpositional ‘bridge’ graft.

Abstract:

Abstract However primed by the availability of suitable materials, the introduction of machines and successful peritoneal dialysis to treat clinical renal failure required men of great imagination, foresight and above all unusual toughness, given the powerful forces arrayed against them in the medical establishment of the day. Pioneers of dialysis were regarded as mavericks—perhaps even dangerous men—by their colleagues for more than two decades. The first of these unusual men was a tenacious and talented Dutchman, Willem Johan Kolff.

Abstract:

Abstract Given the background and initial scepticism about this novel form of treatment, what was the impact around the world from 1947 onwards, after the first pioneer descriptions of haemodialysis? Even in the Netherlands, there was strong opposition to the use of the artificial kidney, although another Kolff kidney was used in Nijmegen in 1947 by Drs Enneking and Geelen [1]. This opposition was led by the influential Professor J.G.G. (Geed) Borst (1902–1975) of Amsterdam (see Fig. 10.2c) who advocated conservative dietary and electrolyte management of uraemia using ‘Dutch gruel’ [2] (water, custard powder, sugar and butter providing 1750 kcal daily with no nitrogen), and did not believe that lives could be saved by dialysis. Borst boasted that their artificial kidney—donated by Kolff—was rusting in the attic unused, because it was not needed [2]. Such was the opposition to his ideas in the Netherlands that in 1950 Kolff emigrated to Cleveland in the United States. Dialysis continued only in Rotterdam, where Kolff ‘s pupil E.E. Twiss used an Alwall dialyser. Only in 1959 was dialysis re-introduced to Amsterdam by William Drukker.

Abstract:

Bioengineering is a technological miracle of health care and future health hope. From the entrepreneurial contributions of William Kolff with the original handmade dialysis machine to the application of the x-ray to medical diagnostics and treatment, biomedical pioneers brought technology to medical care, often at great personal risk. Few can conceive the magnitude of the impact of technology on our ability to return the sick and disabled to function. The “simple” steel and plastic hip implant is a technological wonder. The human is the most demanding of systems to be repaired by technology. The stress levels, cycle loading, chemical degradation and even biological rejection are without precedent in engineering application. Reliability is expected to be near 100%. Psychological and cosmetic compatibility are severe constraints. The current quality of life of many (if not most) of us is dependent upon technology, and forefront technology at that. The dentist no longer hurts and our teeth last longer. Numerous “replacements” are cosmetically acceptable. Medical diagnosties are everywhere, but have a long way to go. Emergency medicine is high-tech. The wonders of bioengineering are in our present and in our future. It is informative to review our bioengineering heritage from early orthopedics (splints, peg legs and crutches), through mobility facilitation (wheelchairs) and internal repair (aortic patches and arterial replacement) to modern diagnostics (MRI) and organ replacement (artificial hearts, kidneys, etc.). A recent renewed interest in biomedical devices paralleling the decoding of the genome and the proposed genetic future portends what Dr. Francis Fukuyama of Johns Hopkins called “Our Post Human Future.” We will explore our historical pathway to what we will call “our better human future through bioengineering.”

Abstract:

The Comet Rendezvous/Asteroid Flyby (CRAF) mission to Comet Kopff and the Cassini mission to Saturn will be briefly outlined, with emphasis on the environmental considerations that constrain the design of the imaging science subsystem (ISS). The ISS employs both wide- and narrow-angle cameras, which share a common electronics module. The narrow-angle camera contains a 2000 mm focal-length, Ritchey–Chretien telescope operating at f/10.5 over a spectral range of 200–1100 nm. The wide-angle camera contains a 300 mm focal length refractor operating at f/2.5 over a spectral range of 380–1100 nm. Dust covers will protect the optics during the missions. A two wheel filter mechanism will be employed, which is similar to that flown on the wide-field planetary camera of the Hubble space telescope. The shutters will be of the two-blade focal plane design used on the Voyager and Galileo cameras. The detectors will be Ford 1024 × 1024 charge coupled devices (CCDs) with 12µm pixels, a full well of greater than 50,000 electrons/pixel, and read noise of less than 10 electrons/pixel rms. Dark current will be suppressed by cooling the devices to -110°C. Radiation damage will be controlled by using tantalum and quartz shielding around the CCD.
