Intro to Biomedical Engineering

QuestionAnswer
How biomaterials relates to orthopedics joints replacements(hip, knee), arthroplasty(shoulder, knee), cervical disectomy(lumbar)
Ligaments Bone to bone
Tendons muscle to muscle
How biomaterials relates to plastic/vascular surgery skin grafts, temporary care
Biomaterials relates to cardiovascular surgery soft tissue, mechanical vs biological valves, stents
Biomaterials design questions Loading, means of attachment, immune response, required surgical tools, sizing(patient variablility, custom, shelf), risk factors (conditions , elective), failure modes and revision(can we get it back out?)
Material properties Loading Modes compression, tension, shear, bending (spine), torsion (twist spine)
Material Properties Loading rates slow (static), fast (dynamic)
Material Properties Loading Frequency Constant, intermittent (day and night, exercise and rest),
Material Properties Material testing Plot displacement( vs force or strain), MTS matching
Tensile Loading similar to how skin works
Invivo testing soft tissue behavior under tensile loading (challenge of testing intact tissue), nondestructive, patient safety
Soft tissue closures sutures, clips, topical adhesives, skin closure strips
Soft tissue closure recommendations 1.Hold in a position 2. Provide mechanical support while healing
SKin graft when skin from one part of the body is transplanted to another area
Temporary burn cover usually skin from another person or animal is used to repair
Gender most amputees are Men
Reasons for amputation Disease (75%), Trauma (22%), Deformities (3%)
Lower Extremity Amputees 40% Transfemoral (above knee), 60% Trans tibial (below knee)
Upper Extremity Amputees 30% TRans humeral(above elbow), 70% trans radial (below elbow)
How cardiovascular and pulmonary system respond to changes in organ demand sporting and fitness, psychological stress, digestion (lance Armstrong's heartbeat is low, stroke volume and vo2max are high)
How does body size affect cardiovascular anatomy? It doesn't (tree shrew and whale have same mean blood pressure)
How do biomechanical forces influence device design stents, etc
Blood flow through an idealized artery intrinsic pressure drop across vascular system
POusille's Law Q= (pir^4)(P1-P2)/8mewL
Assumptions of POusille's Law 1. Steady flow 2. Laminar flow 3. Rigid tube 4. Newtonian 5. No slip 6. Fully developed
How do hemodynamic forces influence the bodily response to device implantation? Create more shear stress on vessel
Conservation of mass in relation to blood flow amount of flow leaving equals amount of flow coming back
Change in diameter important to to blood flow according to Pousille's law
Arterioles primarily how resistance is regulated, regulates peripheral resistance to meet metabolic demand
Blood is a non-Newtonian fluid because it exhibits changes in viscosity with shear rate
Fun facts about blood rheology-how materials deform or flow in response to applied forces, blood can be described as fluid with suspended particles, blood's viscosity depends on hemocrit
shear stress blood flow creates friction on vessels
Blood is shear thinning meaning as amount of hemocrit increases the viscosity increases
example of hemodynamic measurements aortic flow probe,intravascular pressure measurement (catheter with sensor at tip), extravascular measurement (fluid filled catheter with sensor), left ventricular vessel transducer
Two types of instrumentation pulsed doppler velocity- transit flow velocity
pulsed doppler velocity determined by frequency of sound backscattered from moving blood cells
transit flow velocity determined by amount of time it takes for ultrasonic pulse to pass in one direction vs the other
Non-invasive blood flow measurements phase contrast MRI,Spectral Doppler Ultrasound
Top 3 killers in world Heart disease, Stroke, Lower respitratory infections
Killers in the developing world LRI, HIV/AIDS, Diarhea, TB, Malaria, TRaffic?
Mortality rate's influence on world economy as mortality rates go down economic productivity goes up
Factors effecting mortality in developing world nutrition, clean water, hygiene, housing, levels of infectious diseases,health care availability, micronutrients
How BME can help ultra-low cost solutions,simple solutions, power free solutions, EWH/Hospitals, assisitive devices, HIV/AIDS equipment,respiratory care/Nebulizers
Ethical framework rubric for moral decision making, norms for distribution and fairness, outcome based assessments, duty based assessments, character based assesments
Distributive norms equity(merit), equality, need
Outcome based assessment (ultilitarian) Risk( to subject)<Benefit (to subject and society), demonstrate validity of research,nature and magnitude of risks and rationale for determining risks, rule out inhumane treatments no matter what
Duty Based assessments moral duty to act or not act despite the outcome, respect for a person's autonomy, factors determining autonomy (stakeholder theory,threat advantage,informed consent)
Ultimate rubric facts+values =justified decision
AED Automated External Device,detects ventricular fibrillation, shocks heart back into normal rhythm, easy to use with big pictures and audio directions. $1200-2200
Pacemakers and inmplantable defibrillators can pace contantly or on demand, expensive ($10000),
Deep Brain Simulation Translates pacemaker technology to the nervous system and brain, can help treat parkinsons and other tremor, dystonia diseases, possibly epilepsy and affective disorders, looking into new mechanisms of treatment and implantation and energy sources
How frequency of ultrasound is chosen based on trade-off between higher resolution and greater imaging depth
Why do we use the ultrasound gel does not penetrate air or bone well, beam must be as perpendicular to vessel but parallel as possible to blood flow when using pulse wave

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
