1. Point of care microfluidic tool development for resource limited settings
Sammanfattning : The development of point of care diagnostics using recent advances in microfluidics have the potential to transform health care in several ways, especially in resource limited settings with limited access to advanced health care infrastructure. However, translating a point of care device to reality is often a challenging task because of the complexities involved in integrating a number of diverse engineering concepts into an easy to use, accurate and portable device.

2. Centrifugal microfluidics-based point of care diagnostics at resource limited settings
Sammanfattning : Advancements in medical diagnostics have allowed us to understand the underlying mechanism and treat the root cause for many diseases which had been causing morbidity and mortality up until this point in human history. Furthermore, many of the standard diagnostic procedures have now been transformed to provide answers at or near the point-of-care. LÄS MER
3. Maternal Healthcare in Low-Resource Settings: Investigations of IT as a resource
Sammanfattning : Maternal mortality is a major problem especially in developing countries. Maternal deaths are partly attributed to the limited access to healthcare and a shortage of medically trained health professionals who can provide maternal healthcare service. Approaches have been adopted to improve access and quality of healthcare. LÄS MER
4. Wounds of war : surgical care for conflict-related injuries among civilians in resource-limited settings
Sammanfattning : Background: Armed conflicts significantly contribute to the global burden of injury and death. Armed conflicts shocks health systems, deprive its resources and reduce its function, as well as limits access to civilian hospital care. LÄS MER
5. Efficient and systematic network resource management
Sammanfattning : The demand for network resources (e.g. forwarding capacity, buffer space) by increasingly used real-time multimedia applications is growing. Moreover, their stringent performance requirements (e. LÄS MER
