Abstract: The present invention discloses the device for a urinary catheter employing electromagnetic radiation and/or vibration transducer. The device comprises a clip-on (4) including a source of electromagnetic radiation (5) and/or a vibration transducer and a coupler (3) that allows electromagnetic radiation access from clip-on to the inside of the coupler. The combination of electromagnetic radiation and photo catalyst material may increase effectiveness for antimicrobial activity. The device aims at preventing the catheter-associated urinary tract infection caused by both intraluminal and extraluminal routes.

Abstract: The invention provides systems, methods and computer program products for monitoring vascular perfusion in replanted tissue flaps. Specifically, the invention provides a non-invasive solution for monitoring of vascular perfusion at a site of tissue replantation, and that is capable of detecting problems in vascular perfusion and raising alarms in real times. The invention achieves the above function objectives by means of non-invasive sensors that continuously monitor selected parameters related to tissue condition. The monitored data parameters are used to determine a real time condition of replanted tissue.

Abstract: The present subject matter discloses multiside tilt device (100) including a pressure sensing sheet (102) to detect the pressure exerted by the user's body in a pressure build-up area around the pressure sensor and generate a pressure signal indicating a pressure build-up at the pressure build-up area. The multiside tilt device (100) further includes a tilting unit (104) to tilt a portion of the user's body in response to the pressure signal by a predetermined angle. The tilting unit (104) comprises an inflatable base (106) having a first section (108-1) and a second section (108-2) pneumatically separated disposed adjacent to each other to be independently inflated or deflated. Each section (108) comprises one or more cells (112, 304) to be collectively inflated such that each cell (112, 304) is inflated to form an inflated structure having a peak in the center and a trough on either side.

Abstract: A method of electrochemical deposition includes submerging a stainless steel surface of an object in a chitosan solution and applying a first electric potential between the submerged stainless steel surface and the chitosan solution for a predetermined time to form a chitosan surface coating. After rinsing and dehydrating, the chitosan coated surface is submerged in a solution having a predetermined concentration of a noble metal nitrate and a second electric potential is applied between the chitosan coated surface and the solution of the noble metal nitrate to deposit noble metal particles on the chitosan surface coating.
