Book Characterization of Biomaterials

Download or read book Characterization of Biomaterials written by Ming H. Wu and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and the vasculature. The physiology of the system is to circulate blood through the vasculature ensuring delivery of oxygen and vital nutrients to cells and organs in the body. Consequences of diseases disrupting normal cardiovascular function can be severe or fatal. Recent advancements in cardiovascular medicine have contributed significantly to improving life span and quality for patients by restoring normal cardiovascular function through the use of implantable devices. Examples of these cardiovascular implantable devices include endovascular stents, embolic protection devices and filters, closure devices, heart valve prostheses, cardiac rhythm management devices, such as pacemakers and defibrillators, and left ventricular assist devices. The main objective of this chapter is to provide an overview of device test methods commonly used in the development process from concept to commercialization of implantable cardiovascular devices. It is recognized that general device testing methodology and understanding for developing these cardiovascular devices can be extended to other devices as well as new product concepts under development. Developments of new medical devices are closely regulated by regulatory agencies. U.S. and international regulatory requirements for medical devices and drugs provide specific guidance for bench-top in vitro testing, in vivo animal study, clinical research, manufacturing, sterilization, and post-market surveillance for various device categories. Implantable cardiovascular devices generally fall within the Class II and Class III categories. Commercialization of these products in the United States requires FDA's Premarket Notifications (510Ks), Premarket Approvals (PMAs), or Exemptions. The design control element in the new product development procedure requires detailed documentation of design inputs and outputs as well as rational design verification through testing to ensure device functions and safety. Notably, implantable cardiovascular devices are subjected to very high safety expectation. The inability to perform periodic inspection and repair after device implantation also means that the statistical reliability and safety for these devices must be well established and verified prior to clinical uses. To facilitate discussions, a brief overview of the cardiovascular anatomy and physiology is provided in the beginning of this chapter. Following this overview are sections reviewing exemplary implantable devices used for treating various cardiovascular disorders. The majority of this chapter is then devoted to descriptions of necessary engineering characterizations and design verification test methods most relevant to developing cardiovascular devices for commercialization. Particular emphasis is placed on the attributes that are significantly affected by the biomaterials used in the designs. These include physical properties, such as the transformation temperatures for nitinol self-expanding devices, mechanical properties, structure integrity and durability, corrosion risk assessment as well as functional testing. In addition, biocompatibility testing refers to a battery of testing used to evaluate the biological reaction of the human body to the implanted device. There is a well-recognized ISO standard that governs the specific test protocol requirements (ISO 10993). Safety evaluation studies (in vitro and in vivo) are conducted on a variety of biomaterials, medical devices, and related products to identify the presence of toxins or any other potentially harmful effects. Common assessments of device imaging are also briefly described. These include radiopacity as well as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) safety and compatibility.

Book Next Generation of Bridge Columns for Accelerated Bridge Construction in High Seismic Zones

Download or read book Next Generation of Bridge Columns for Accelerated Bridge Construction in High Seismic Zones written by Mostafa Tazarv and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longitudinal bar debonding allowed spread of yielding and prevented premature failure of reinforcements in UHPC-filled duct connections and grouted coupler column pedestal. The SMA-reinforced ECC column showed superior seismic performance compared to a conventional column in which the plastic hinge damage was limited to only ECC cover spalling even under 12% drift ratio cycles. The column residual displacements were 79% lower than CIP residual displacements on average due to the superelastic NiTi SMA longitudinal reinforcement, and higher base shear capacity and higher displacement capacity were observed. The analytical modeling methods were simple and sufficiently accurate for general design and analyses of precast components proposed in the present study. The proposed symmetrical material model for reinforcing NiTi superelastic SMA was found to be a viable alternative to the more complex asymmetrical model.

Book Biological Performance of Materials

Download or read book Biological Performance of Materials written by Jonathan Black and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2005-12-20 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bioengineers need a thorough grounding in biocompatibility - the biological performance of materials. Until now, there were no publications suitable for a neophyte in the field; prior publications were either not comprehensive or focused on rather narrow interests. Drawing on the author's 35 years of experience as a teacher, researcher, and consultant in biomaterials science and engineering (BSE), Biological Performance of Materials: Fundamentals of Biocompatibility, Fourth Edition focuses primarily on principles of biological performance at a relatively fundamental level, analyzing interactions between living organisms and nonliving materials used in medical devices - the subject that sets BSE apart as a distinct field of investigation. Following an introductory section, the book is divided into three sections: the material response to biological systems, host response to biomaterials, and test methods for determining biological response in vitro as well as in animal models and clinical settings. Supplemental "Interparts" summarize the physical properties of commonly used metallic, polymeric, and ceramic biomaterials. They also provide a guide to understanding the clinical performance of implanted biomaterials.
