Design of an Implantable Micropump
The implantable programmable micropump is an interesting solution to treat chronic diseases such as diabetes with regular micro-injections of medicine. However, current applications of micropumps are limited by their rather expensive cost. The challenge is therefore to develop a low cost alternative by reducing the number of parts and by simplifying the assembly. As the pump and its tank will b...
متن کاملTowards an Implantable, Low Flow Micropump That Uses No Power in the Blocked-Flow State
Low flow rate micropumps play an increasingly important role in drug therapy research. Infusions to small biological structures and lab-on-a-chip applications require ultra-low flow rates and will benefit from the ability to expend no power in the blocked-flow state. Here we present a planar micropump based on gallium phase-change actuation that leverages expansion during solidification to occl...
متن کاملA Wireless Implantable Micropump for Chronic Drug Infusion Against Cancer.
We present an implantable micropump with a miniature form factor and completely wireless operation that enables chronic drug administration intended for evaluation and development of cancer therapies in freely moving small research animals such as rodents. The low power electrolysis actuator avoids the need for heavy implantable batteries. The infusion system features a class E inductive poweri...
متن کاملAlternative Power Standard Realization at Radio Frequency
Modern ac-dc transfer equipments can operate up to 1 GHz at least. These equipments and the related ac-voltage measurements may be attractive for calibrating high frequency power sensors in term of ac-dc transfer difference instead of effective efficiency. Furthermore, below 30 MHz, the ac-voltage standard can be also used as powerful alternative and complement to the microcalorimeter technique...
متن کاملDesign of Miniature Implantable Tag Antenna for Radio-Frequency Identification System at 2.45GHz and Received Power Analysis
In recent years, there has been rapid developments in radio-frequency identification (RFID) systems, and their industrial applications include logistics management, automatic object identification, access and parking management, etc. Moreover, RFID systems have also been introduced for the management of medical instruments in medical applications to improve the quality of medical services. In r...
