Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) is an abrupt onset of a focal neurological deficit due to the occlusion of a cerebral artery caused by thrombosis or embolism. According to the World Health Organization, stroke is the second leading cause of death in the world. One of the available treatments is the aspiration thrombectomy, where a negative pressure...

The forensic investigation is one of the first steps in the criminal investigation process concerning home invasion robberies. The forensic investigation consists of objectively capturing the crime scene as it is when starting the investigation. Regarding home invasion robberies, the most important traces are fingerprints and DNA which are used...

The interest in shape-shifting materials has increased over the past years. A part of this field concerns the shape-shifting of sheets from flat configuration into a double curved configuration, requiring nonuniform strain among the sheet. This functionality can be used for various purposes, in different application fields. For example, shape...

Laparoscopy involves the use of various instruments for performing different functions. As a consequence, time is spent in exchanging the various instruments, adding to the overall operation time. In order to reduce this overall operation time and solve this problem, the number of instrument exchanges need to be reduced. Reducing the number of...

Background Current neurosurgical visualisation systems, operating microscopes as well as exoscopic systems, display problems that make their performance suboptimal. Operating microscopes severely restrict ergonomics, occasionally leading to pain or injuries. Existing exoscope systems have diverse limitations, therefore not yet being able to...

Nowadays, the main treatment for children with bone cancer is limb salvage. To prevent this, a new design for an expandable endoprosthesis for the knee has been developed. This proposal contained a bioresorbable ceramic component, made out of hydroxyapatite (HA), with a porosity gradient which will be subjected to a compressive load. In order...

Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has made tremendous impact on hospitals worldwide. Introduced as a patient friendly alternative to open surgery by significantly reducing incisions size, benefits such as faster patient recovery time, and less pain for patients, are achieved. However, in MIS, rigid instrument shafts can impair surgeons’ dexterity...

Cardiac mapping techniques, in which an electrode-array is placed directly on the surface of the heart, were developed to gain a better insight in the underlying electropathology of cardiac arrhythmias. This procedure is performed in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, but here not all relevant cardiac structures and conduction inquiries can be...

A new radical design approach arose from the need to develop a bipolar electrosurgical instrument that is modular and cleanable, thus reusable and therefore suitable for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Advanced Bipolar Vessel Sealer (BVS) instruments that are currently on the market cannot be cleaned or maintained well and are...

Colic affects millions of infants worldwide annually. This presents a mild to severe discomfort in babies, resulting in inconsolable crying for an unusually long period of time. Such crying impacts negatively not only the baby (disturbing the sleeping pattern) but also the parents (sleep deprivation, depression). The current solutions usually...

Introduction: Smart Medics Company is a startup from the Delft University of Technology, looking to bring an affordable Video laryngoscope (VL) into hospitals in low-resource regions. This research aims to seek the best suitable transparent material to act as a lens, sealing off a compartment containing an endoscope, as well as, bring forth a...

Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) is a procedure where a defective hip joint with pain symptoms or functional impairment is replaced by a hip prosthesis. During this procedure, the optimal hip prosthesis should be chosen and placed in the correct orientation to achieve a stable hip joint. Failure to do so can lead to dislocation, mechanical failure...

The shift from open surgery with one large incision to less invasive techniques with multiple small incisions brings benefits such as less trauma, less scar formation and a faster recovery for the patient. However, in minimally invasive surgery (MIS), surgeons struggle with basic tasks such as applying sutures and tying nots. Clip appliers have...

Female sterilisation is difficult to access in many low- and middle-income countries. Opt Medical wants to solve this problem by developing a clip that can be placed around the Fallopian tubes during C-sections without immediately affecting the fertility. By activating the clip at a suitable time, a clamping mechanism occludes the Fallopian tube...

Data analysis for electrical impedance tomography (EIT) research requires manual selection of sequences with a normal breathing pattern. This procedure is lengthy and the lack of a standardised approach results in different practices among EIT studies, limiting the potential and comparability of the research.<br/>This article presents a new...

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive technique, allowing for the reversible modulation of activity in particular brain regions. TDCS has obtained much scientific interest and it promises many potential benefits to the patients.<br/><br/>However, tDCS that is performed today is almost the same with the method that was...

Part I:<br/>Inflicted head injury by shaking trauma (IHI-ST) is often simulated to better understand the injury mechanisms and to analyze whether violent shaking can cause head injury in infants. Computational models are usually subjected to linear and rotational inputs to simulate shaking scenarios. In existing studies, the head’s rotation...

The study is the first to describe and model the dynamics and characteristics of communication during midstream modulation. A meta-model of seven communication traditions is deployed to frame the nature of communication. The study also validates the effectiveness of midstream modulation in the field of medical device technology.

Total Mesorectal Excision is the recommended curative surgical treatment for most cases of rectal cancer that exceed multiple layers of the bowel. For some cases a laparoscopic approach is difficult to perform. In cases of highly obese patients, or a specifically distal laying tumor. The tumor is then difficult to reach because of the funneling...
