The advancement and placement of surgical guidewire, as well as other medical apparatuses, can be a strenuous and time-consuming process for clinicians during various types of surgery and medical procedures. When it takes extended amounts of time to perform a procedure, complications can occur that can be detrimental to the patient. Current guidewire...

Easy Apply Tourniquet (Pressure Stop)

Project ID: TECH2026-20 Approximately 4 million people worldwide die each year from traumatic injuries, with an estimated 30-40% caused by hemorrhage. A significant portion of hemorrhage-related deaths involve extremity bleeding. A tourniquet is a device designed to apply firm, circumferential pressure around a limb. Its purpose is to temporarily...

Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) Real-Time 3D or Multi-Plane 2D Ultrasound Imaging Based on Bessel or Focused Beam Steered by a Reflector Driven by Electromagnets or Micro-Motors

Project ID: TECH-2025-34 Despite that there are many companies that develop POCUS devices, many have so many problems with good images, short battery life, heating issues and no 3D images. Traditionally, a one-dimensional (1D) array transducer is used for two-dimensional (2D) imaging, where the transducer and its cable are heavy and bulky, and only...

Minimally Invasive Thrombectomy Device

Project ID: D2017-42 Many vascular system problems stem from insufficient blood flow. One of the main causes is a blockage within veins known as a blood clot, or thrombus. This can occur due to different phenomenological reasons. The ultimate goal of any percutaneous modality to treat these conditions of the arterial or venous system is to...

Plate & Strap Immobilizer

Hand restraints are commonly used in medical settings to limit the movement of a patient’s hands or arms, particularly when there is a risk of self-harm, interference with medical procedures, or disruption of treatment. These devices are important in ensuring patient safety, preventing accidental removal of medical devices (such as intravenous...

Novel artificial neural network-based (ANN) approach for glycemic forecasting

Project ID: D2009-05 Currently, glycemic control is obtained via point of care (POC) glucose monitoring and delivery of insulin based on a defined insulin infusion protocol. This discrete monitoring is disadvantageous as glucose concentrations are unknown when POC glucose values are not obtained. Neural network based models for real-time prediction...

Micropatterned Silicone Oxygenating Dressing For Chronic Wounds

Project ID: D2018-09 Wound healing requires oxygen, moisture, and pressure offloading. It is difficult to simultaneously obtain these conditions because oxygen has a low diffusivity in water. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is an approved treatment which uses a pressurized chamber to increase oxygen absorption. However, patients must be ambulatory...

Hybrid multifunctional posterior interspinous fusion device

Project ID: D2012-27 An interspinous stabilization device is a device that is adapted to be secured to two or more adjacent vertebrae of a spine in order to stabilize the relative positioning therebetween. An interspinous stabilization device can also be used to facilitate the placement of a bone-growth material, such as a bone graft, between such...

Novolntus Vaginal Speculum

Vaginal speculums are medical devices commonly used during gynecological examinations to visualize and access the cervix and vaginal canal. Traditionally, speculums have been constructed from metal, featuring two hinged blades that can be opened and closed by a handle mechanism. However, the cold metal and cranking noise of existing vaginal speculums...

Super Resolution Imaging with Modulation of Point Spread Function

Project ID: TECH2024-09 High image resolution is a desired outcome in wave-related disciplines such as ultrasound, acoustics, optics, and electromagnetics. However, the spatial resolution of an imaging system is fundamentally limited by the spatial frequency of the point spread function (PSF) of the system due to diffraction. There have been numerous...
