    Measuring body forces with sensors contained in the implant

    In collaboration with WITTENSTEIN intens GmbH and Prof. Rainer Baumgart ZEM Munich researchers from the University of Konstanz have further developed the fully implantable telemetrically-controlled distraction nail FITBONE. They have equipped the nail with sensors and energy- and data transmission modules to carry out biomechanical movement and load-bearing analyses of the locomotor system in vivo. The researchers goal is to develop a system to…

    Textile implant as herniated disc repair kit

    Repairing herniated discs is a clinical need that has still not been met. When the discomfort becomes unbearable, surgery can be performed and the intervertebral disc is generally removed. However, this can further reduce the patients’ quality of life. Scientists at DITF, in cooperation with the Spanish company NEOS Surgery S.L., have developed a textile-based device for treating herniated discs. The device is a minimally invasive “repair kit”…

    Retinal microchip provides slight hope

    Is there a slight chance that patients suffering from Retinitis pigmentosa or even from age-related macular degeneration might be able to regain their vision? A microchip implanted beneath the retina might at least give such patients the ability to make out the outlines of objects.

    Personalised Parkinson’s therapy using intelligent brain stimulation

    For many decades, deep brain stimulation has been used for treating neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. However, the mechanisms of the procedure, which involves implanting stimulation probes into low lying brain areas, are still not clear. Prof. Alireza Gharabaghi, Dr. Daniel Weiss and their teams of researchers at the University of Tübingen have now been able to demonstrate a direct relationship between deep brain…

    Medical devices legislation: laborious compromises in Brussels

    The revision of the European legislation on medical devices is aimed at making medical devices safer and rebuilding the trust of patients. Rather than implementing the system change that was being planned after the silicone breast implant scandal in 2010, the EU called for open public consultation to prevent such incidents from occurring. As a result, revision of the legislation has been ongoing since autumn 2012.
