  1. 11. Modular textile-enabled bioimpedance system for personalized health monitoring applications

    Författare :Javier Ferreira; Fernando Seoane; Kaj Lindecrantz; Orjan Grottem Martinsen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; personal healthcare system; electrical bioimpedance; wearable sensors; pervasive monitoring; portable monitoring; body composition; chronic kidney disease; wireless sensor; ubiquitous; instrumentation; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Sammanfattning : A growing number of factors, including costs, technological advancements, ageing populations, and medical errors, are leading industrialized countries to invest in research on alternative solutions to improve their health-care systems and increase patients’ quality of life. Personal health systems (PHS) examplify the use of information and communication technologies that enable a paradigm shift from the traditional hospital-centered healthcare delivery model toward a preventive and person-centered approach.

  3. 12. Conjugated Polymers for Neural Interfaces : Prospects, possibilities and future challenges

    Författare :Maria Asplund; Hans von Holst; Olle Inganäs; Thomas Stieglitz; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; neuroprosthetics; conjugated polymers; conducting polymers; PEDOT; functional electrical stimulation; neural electrodes; Medical engineering; Medicinsk teknik; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap; Functional materials; Funktionella material;

    Sammanfattning : Within the field of neuroprosthetics the possibility to use implanted electrodes for communication with the nervous system is explored. Much effort is put into the material aspects of the electrode implant to increase charge injection capacity, suppress foreign body response and build micro sized electrode arrays allowing close contact with neurons.

  4. 13. Melt spinning of poly(vinylidene fluoride) mono- and bicomponent fibres and yarns : the formation of piezoelectric beta-phase crystallinity

    Författare :Anja Lund; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Nyckelord :fibres; PVDF; Textilteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : The present study investigates the possibilities of manufacturing piezoelectric polymer fibres or yarns for integration into textile materials. The polymers known to give the strongest piezoelectric effects are poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and some of its copolymers. LÄS MER
