A Needle-Shaped Electrochemical Sensor in Platinum for Robust Monitoring of Anaesthetics

A needle-shaped electrochemical sensor based on platinum electrodes is proposed in this paper. These platinum electrodes provide improved mechanical properties with respect to previous prototypes proposed in literature. This makes them suitable for inserti ...

Transient Electronics for Smart Biodegradable Medical Implants

Matthieu Jean Michel Rüegg

Bioresorbable implantable medical devices show great potential for applications requiring medical care over well-defined periods of time. Such implants naturally degrade and resorb in the body, which eliminates adverse long-term effects or the need for a s ...

Reduction of scapulohumeral subluxation with posterior augmented glenoid implants in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty: Short-term 3D comparison between pre- and post-operative CT

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Patrick Goetti

Background: Failure rates in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) are higher in case of asymmetric glenoid bone loss secondary to posterior wear, and in persistent static posterior subluxation of the humeral head (PSH). ...

Quasi-Digital Biosensor-Interface for a Portable Pen to Monitor Anaesthetics Delivery

Sandro Carrara, Francesca Stradolini, Abuduwaili Tuoheti, Danilo Demarchi, Simone Aiassa

Monitoring of patient response to the anaesthetic drugs is an attractive improvement for achieving a correct balance of sedation level, increasing the chance of success in the right procedure of anaesthesia. Nowadays, there are no commercial tools able to ...

Raspberry-Pi based system for propofol monitoring

Sandro Carrara, Francesca Stradolini, Danilo Demarchi, Tugba Kilic, Abuduwaili Tuoheti

Induction of anesthesia with propofol is a largely adopted technique in hospital environments. The correct dosage of this compound is essential to avoid under- or over-anesthesia that may result in serious side-effects. Therefore, in clinical settings, lon ...

Long-term functionality of a soft electrode array for epidural spinal cord stimulation in a minipig model

Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Giuseppe Schiavone, Jocelyne Bloch, Marco Capogrosso, Nicolas Vachicouras, Fabien Bertrand Paul Wagner, Florian Dylan Fallegger, Xiaoyang Kang, Beatrice Barra

Long-term biointegration of man-made neural interfaces is influenced by the mechanical properties of the implant materials. Substantial experimental work currently aims at replacing conventional hard implant materials with soft alternatives that can favour ...

Energy metabolism in the rat cortex under thiopental anaesthesia measured

Rolf Gruetter, Nathalie Just, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Sarah Catherine Sonnay

Barbiturates, commonly used as general anaesthetics, depress neuronal activity and thus cerebral metabolism. Moreover, they are likely to disrupt the metabolic support of astrocytes to neurons, as well as the uptake of nutrients from circulation. By employ ...

Virtual reality improves embodiment and neuropathic pain caused by spinal cord injury

Olaf Blanke, Roberta Ronchi, Estelle Palluel, Marco Solcà, Polona Pozeg

Objective: To investigate changes in body ownership and chronic neuropathic pain in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) using multisensory own body illusions and virtual reality (VR). Methods: Twenty patients with SCI with paraplegia and 20 healthy cont ...

Cascaded PID controller for anaesthesia delivery

Monia Guidi, Alena Simalatsar

The technologies for continuous measurement of the anaesthetic agents circulating in body fluids are not mature yet, though some preliminary prototypes exist already. We present a control algorithm that based on the real measurement of propofol plasma conc ...

Facial Image Analysis for Fully-Automatic Prediction of Difficult Endotracheal Intubation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Matteo Sorci, Anil Yuce, Hua Gao, Gabriel Louis Cuendet

Goal: Difficult tracheal intubation is a major cause of anesthesia related injuries with potential life threatening complications. Detection and anticipation of difficult airway in the preoperative period is thus crucial for the patients’ safety. We propos ...
