Home Use Medical Devices: Analysis of Adverse Events in the Home Setting
More than 7 million people in the United States each year receive healthcare in the home setting from a wide variety of devices, from relatively simple devices such as urine collector bags to complex infusion pumps. As more patients require the use of home use medical devices, the devices being used in the home are also increasing in complexity, creating a greater opportunity for adverse events. In addition, the uncontrolled, often unsupervised environment of home use medical devices comes with its own safety considerations. Clinical engineers and healthcare technology managers play an important role in identifying problem...

The Biostability of Gold Nanoparticles for Cancer Treatment
Nanotechnology is the latest technology in this century where it has a wide field of healthcare applications. In this research, gold nanoparticles are synthesized by using green method in which the reducing agent is a black seed extract and the stabilizing agent is gum Arabic, where this method is fast, low cost, and eco-friendly, which make it preferable for medical applications such as cancer treatment. The synthesized gold nanoparticles are characterized by using UV-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and x-ray diffraction, and then the biological stability of gold nanoparticles has been monitored fo...

Reduction of Speckle Noise and Image Enhancement in Ultrasound Image Using Filtering Technique and Edge Detection
The objectives of this article are to give an overview of the types of speckle reduction techniques in US imaging, present a new technique of speckle reduction, and carry out a comparative evaluation of despeckle filtering based on image quality metrics. A new speckle suppression method and coherence enhancement of medical US image are proposed: 9 despeckled filtering techniques and 5 edge detection operators, with the result evaluated by image quality metrics. The best edge detection hybrid with best filter, quality evaluation metrics has been found that the proposed method performance better than all other methods, while...

A Review of Using Common Spatial Pattern in Discrimination of Multiclass Motor Imagery–Based Brain-Computer Interface
Brain-computer interface (BCI) is now being one of the interesting and attractive topics for researchers in recent years. Common spatial pattern is the most common approach applied in motor imagery (MI)-based BCI because of its effectiveness in differentiating between 2 different MI classes. The main objective of this article is to review using common spatial pattern combining with different methods such as Hilbert transform, error correction output coding, wavelet transform, joint approximate diagonalization, and others to extract features that can be used to differentiate between multiclass MI-based BCI. Data set 2a from...

Sensor-Integrated Laryngoscope: A Key Step Toward Safe Neonatal Intubation
This article presents the functionality of the sensor-integrated laryngoscope and the methods used to interpret the force and torque data during the procedure. The long-term objectives of this project are to identify a “safe range” of metrics of force and torque applied to the airway during intubation and incorporate those findings into the device.
