It is the first textbook that discusses both electrical and mechanical medical devices. The first 20 chapters are medical device technology chapters; the remaining 8 chapters are medical device laboratory experiment chapters. Each medical device chapter begins with an exposition of appropriate physiology, mathematical modeling or biocompatibility issues, and clinical need. The systems approach enables students to quickly identify the relationships between devices.
Key Features: The medical devices discussed are Nobel Prize or Lasker Clinical Prize winners, vital signs devices, and devices in high industry growth areas Three significant Food and Drug Administration FDA recall case studies which have impacted FDA medical device regulation are included in appropriate device chapters Exercises at the end of each chapter include traditional homework problems, analysis exercises, and four questions from assigned primary literature Eight laboratory experiments are detailed that provide hands-on reinforcement of device concepts.
Based on the tremendous advances in medical imaging and high-performance computing, virtual testing is able to help in medical decision processes or implant designs. Current challenges in medicine and engineering are related to the application of computational methods to clinical medicine and the study of biological systems at different scales. Additionally manufacturers will be able to use computational tools and methods to predict the performance of their medical devices in virtual patients.
The physical and animal testing procedures could be reduced by virtual prototyping of medical devices. Here simulations can enhance the performance of alternate device designs for a range of virtual patients. This will lead to a refinement of designs and to safer products. This book summarizes different aspects of approaches to enhance function, production, initialization and complications of different types of implants and related topics.
The issues discussed will pave the way for understanding the preliminary concepts used in modern biomedical device engineering, which include medical imaging, computational fluid dynamics, finite element analysis, particle image velocimetry, and rapid prototyping. This book would undoubtedly be of use to biomedical engineers, medical doctors, radiologists, and any other professionals related to the research and development of devices for health care.
Now, this completely revised second edition promises to set the pace for modern biomedical equipment technology. These high-energy-density sealed battery sys tems have made possible the safe and rapid development of lightweight implant able electrical devices, some of which, such as heart pacers, have reached a large market. In most of these devices the battery constitutes the majority of the device volume and weight, and limits the useful life. Good book for beginners entering the field!
By Gregory D. Michalak Book talks about human anatomy very breifly in chapter 1. Chapter 2 talks about the heart and circulatory system very well. Chapter 4 talks about measurements such as direct vs. It also discusses measurement errors. Chapter 6 is a good chapter about trasducers. Chapter 8 talks about electrocardiography and is pretty good. Chapter 9 talks about pressure, invasive blood pressure measurements, non invasive blood pressure measurements, cardiac output and thermodilution.
It also discusses very well defibrillators, atrial vs. It also talks about pacemakers and the heart lung machine. Chapter 10 talks about human respiration and its measurements. Chapter 11 talks about respiratory therapy equipment. Chapeter 12 talks about the nervous system. Chapter 16 talks about medical lab equipment and to me the chapter is outdated as far as the equipment they discuss.
Chapter 17 talks about ultrasound and is not that great. Appendix D in the book does a good job at discussing electrical safety such as micro vs. The chapters i didn't discuss chapters 3,5,7,, were not very good or informative. Biomedical Text book 4th edition hardcover By Aldude50 I received this book in its plastic shrink wrap covering, thus ensuring that is was not used. Although this book is listed as the US hardcover edition, that does not necessary mean that the book is what I would call a premium edition.
Although, the binding is glossy hardcover; the pages inside are a non glossy black and white, shades of grey, printing that does have a less than perfect copied appearance with a few flaws in the printing. So if you are expecting a full color illustration with glossy pages as in traaditional text books, this is not. As far as content, I used this book for a semester of college class.
We studied most of the chapters. Although, I thought that the chapters were well organized; much material was old and dated, though still valid. Many changes in technology and procedures have occured since then and I believe that the book needs a through updating.
In conclussion, the text book did its job, and was a requirement of the class. Brown Kindle. Posting Komentar. Jumat, 12 Desember [V Brown Never doubt with our deal, due to the fact that we will certainly always offer just what you need. Significant changes to this edition are: A new chapter on quality Improvement is included. Joseph J. It is the most widely adopted text across the BME course spectrum, valued by instructors and students alike for its authority, clarity and encyclopedic coverage in a single volume.
Biomedical engineers need to understand the wide range of topics that are covered in this text, including basic mathematical modeling; anatomy and physiology; electrical engineering, signal processing and instrumentation; biomechanics; biomaterials science and tissue engineering; and medical and engineering ethics.
Chapters on peripheral topics have been removed and made avaialblw online, including optics and computational cell biology. Beginning biomedical equipment technologists can use this book to obtain a working vocabulary and elementary knowledge of the industry. Content is presented through the inclusion of a wide variety of medical instrumentation, with an emphasis on generic devices and classifications; individual manufacturers are explained only when the market is dominated by a particular unit.
Designed for the reader with a fundamental understanding of anatomy, physiology, and medical terminology appropriate for their role in the health care field and assumes the reader's understanding of electronic concepts, including voltage, current, resistance, impedance, analog and digital signals, and sensors.
The material covered will assist the reader in the development of his or her role as a knowledgeable and effective member of the patient care team.
