How to Care for Implanted Ports
Implantable ports are used for intravenous infusion therapy and play an important role in management of oncology patients. These ports are best suited for patients requiring long-term therapy (>4 weeks). Implanted ports provide reliable venous access protect peripheral access increase patients’ comfort through reducing repeated and difficult vein punctures allow for safe and comfortable admi...
متن کاملStretchable Electronics: Materials Strategies and Devices
New electronic materials have the potential to enable wearable computers, personal health monitors, wall-scale displays and other systems that are not easily achieved with established wafer based technologies. A traditional focus of this field is on the development of materials for circuits that can be formed on bendable substrates, such as sheets of plastic or steel foil. More recent efforts s...
متن کاملIslet encapsulation: strategies to enhance islet cell functions.
Diabetes is one of the most prevalent, costly, and debilitating diseases in the world. Although traditional insulin therapy has alleviated the short-term effects, long-term complications are ubiquitous and harmful. For these reasons, alternative treatment options are being developed. This review investigates one appealing area: cell replacement using encapsulated islets. Encapsulation materials...
متن کاملDesigning Thin, Ultrastretchable Electronics with Stacked Circuits and Elastomeric Encapsulation Materials.
Many recently developed soft, skin-like electronics with high performance circuits and low modulus encapsulation materials can accommodate large bending, stretching, and twisting deformations. Their compliant mechanics also allows for intimate, nonintrusive integration to the curvilinear surfaces of soft biological tissues. By introducing a stacked circuit construct, the functional density of t...
