10 GAMBAR INOVASI & TEKNOLOGI DALAM BIDANG PERUBATAN
1) Anti-coagulation medication monitor
This device is a self-testing monitor for analyzing coagulation parameters (prothrombin time [PT] reported as the international normalized ratio [INR]) at home. It is a handheld device that lets patients check their own PT/INR levels in less than 1 minute, using a single drop of blood from a finger prick. Insert a test strip (which automatically turns on the monitor), put a drop of blood on the strip, and in less than one minute the results are displayed. The INRatio2 simultaneously performs two levels of quantitative reportable quality-control tests to ensure the integrity of the results; if anything goes awry, it displays an error message and no INR results.
2) Trans-cutaneous Immunization Delivery Method
It is a new entrant in the field of needle-free vaccination with IP for a patch - based method of dermal delivery. While the start-up was well on its way to developing the pharmaceutical science behind the vaccination, there remained the challenge of prepping the skin to effectively accept the vaccine. The result is a vaccine patch concept and application prototype consider the complete user experience, from mail-out packaging to application, and has the potential to make self-application possible for the first time.
3) Elegant insulin injection device
It is created with several improved characteristics which it can enable a smooth and quiet rotation of the dose knob, enable the pen to dial backwards if you dial past the needed dose (previous reusable pens wasted insulin if the patient needed to dial back the dose, reduce the thumb pressure needed to inject and reduce the variability around that force and enable a simpler push reset of the plunger. It is designed to be dressier and less medical-looking appearance. The high-quality image helps minimize the stigma of injecting in public, which more “clinical-looking” pens can convey.
4) Contact Lenses Measure Glucose
Jin Shang, a professor of biochemical engineering at the University of Western Ontario, has invented a contact lens that changes color when sugar levels change in the blood. Nanoparticles implanted in contact lenses interact with glucose molecules in tears. This interaction changes the color of the lens to indicate varying sugar levels. This new medical invention could eliminate the need to draw blood to monitor glucose.
5) Infant warmer
It is safe and intuitive to use. It has no moving parts and can be easily sterilized. It looks like a tiny sleeping bag but its design is very clever. It has a pouch that contains a "phase-change wax material" that radiates heat throughout the insulation at a temperature of 37 degrees Celsius (98 F) - the temperature critical for the child's survival. The pouch is removed from the insulated blanket and activated by placing it in hot water for 15 minutes. It's then placed into the blanket. The phase-change material maintains a constant temperature for 4 hours
6) Device for delivering medication and vaccinations
As an alternative to injecting a needle, micro-poration is a painless method of transferring medication (intra-epidermal) into the body using laser technology. A handheld laser creates micro pores in the epidermis of the skin for the transfer of molecules. It has a familiar comparison to the "needle-less" device used by Dr. "Bones" McCoy on Star Trek. The popular sci-fi series has inspired more than a few new inventions including the "laser" and the cell phone. This new micro-poration technology is painless to use and requires no supervision to administer. The interfaced controls regulate the dosage
7) GE scan
Measuring about the same size as a cheap and bulky flip phone, the handheld medical device packs a complete ultrasound console within its small frame. When flipped open, it reveals a screen display on the upper flap and navigation controls at the bottom. A wand that's similarly tiny can be attached to the bottom of the unit when used to generate non-invasive scans of organs and babies. The Vscan is aimed largely at primary care doctors, who can carry it as part of their mobile kits, saving their patients from having to take an extra trip to the clinic. It's also especially useful for emergency situations,
8) Hapifork Will Help You to Reach Your Fitness Goals
The developers claim, that its core focus is on larger meals and the speed with which you normally eat rather than the nutritional value of the food. Sensors within the device will measure how long it took you to eat a meal, how many times you put food in your mouth per minute, and the intervals between those “fork servings.” Once the data has been gathered, it is is being uploaded via USB or Bluetooth and your personal online profile will be created. In case you’re eating too fast, the Hapifork indicator lights will flash
9) Inhalable Insulin
The “In” is a unique device that is an alternative to needles and offers inhalable insulin for diabetics especially children. By changing the perception of insulin delivery products, the designers hopes to change the way the world perceives young children suffering from diabetics. The inhalable solution will benefit many and also be extremely easy to use. A great concept, the next generation is sure to benefit from it if it is ever manufactured.
10) Vital Monitoring Bracelet
Vitals Monitoring System is a concept bracelet designed by Dan Bishop to save the doctors’ time for the really important stuff by quickly checking up on the patients’ vital signs. By swiping the temperature sensor of Vitals Monitoring System across a person’s forehead the doctor receives data on the blood pressure and pulse and immediately has it sent wirelessly to the charting system for the record and future reference. This could make the doctor’s work more efficient, especially in the situations of emergency, or when there’s a need to check many patients.
