Recent foreign medical equipment of new technologies, new equipment highlights

Recently, the United States medical network has released some of the area near medical equipment development, with special concern is for implantable medical devices for charging issues, foreign researchers invented in charge and wing driven watches principle similar to the human kinetic energy conversion charge equipment.

These technologies and the equipment is new and reflects the clinical sector abroad for medical needs.

New Zealand invention

Implants in charging technology

At present there are many patients around the world to install a cardiac pacemaker or an insulin pump, and other small implanted electronic medical devices to reduce the occurrence of accidents, improve the quality of life and extend life.

However, the problem is not to be ignored, although the implantable cardiac pacemaker uses a long-life battery (usually available 5 ~ 7 years), but once the battery depletion, patients must still implement surgery to replace the battery again; for you have installed an insulin pump for diabetics, as electronic pump power consumption is high, typically requires device battery wire penetrating the skin exposed skin, so that at any time to charge, it is extremely easy to trigger bacterial infection and even fatal disease septicemia, etc.

In response to these Implantable devices, New Zealand Auckland City radio technology Institute researchers have invented a new technology for Wireless charging.

The principle is: the implantable device built into a micro-coils, in the internal coil magnetic field change to produce the current to recharge the battery.

British inventions

Human kinetic energy conversion charge equipment

United Kingdom Institute for electronic medical device Zorlink semiconduct researchers made a bold vision of Science: can the use of human organs of movement itself (such as heart beat, joints, etc.) to produce energy for implantable medical device battery? this bold scientific ideas won the United Kingdom an international consortium of 50 m of funding.

Recently, the Institute developed a new electronic device that cleverly collects energy from the human activity and converted into electrical energy, thus achieving the implantable medical device charging for implantable medical devices use it indefinitely. This new technology is expected to be used in cardiac pacemakers, prevent seizures electronic nerve impulse Stimulator, heart monitor, urinary incontinence-control solenoid valves, controlled drug release drug delivery devices, as well as electronic ears and kidney implantation pump, etc.

New cervical cancer DNA testing instrument

Cervical cancer has become a serious threat to women's health at the tumor.

It is reported that in recent years, the United States each year, the new 620 million patients with cervical cancer. Studies show that in the early detection of cervical cancer, cancer mortality can be reduced by 90 percent. Cervical cancer is the traditional check means "bad Panico la test" that is, for women with vaginal mucus check epithelial cells come from, but this method fail rate is high. Recently, the United States Digene biotechnology companies invented a cervical cancer DNA dedicated Analyzer.

According to the researchers, cervical cancer is mainly composed of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection.

HPV has dozens of varying strains, which most likely induced cervical cancer is 13, 14 and 52, the virus strains. Use of Digene biotechnology companies developed the highly carcinogenic HPV virus strains of private DNA Analyzer, doctors simply takes a small amount of vaginal secretions check to informed patients has been highly carcinogenic HPV virus infection and cancer.
