Enhanced Process Monitoring and Control Technology to Accelerate Development of Bioresorbable Polymeric Medical Devices (BIO-POLYTEC)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

The manufacture of bioresorbable medical devices for temporary implantation inside the human body is growing into a high-value industry with many benefits over traditional devices. Bioresorbable devices do not need a removal operation, reducing patient trauma and significant healthcare costs. Due to the ability to add antibacterial or antibiotic drugs and to control the release rate at the implan ...

A novel NIR-based instrument for in-line monitoring during injection moulding (OPTIJECT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"Injection moulding is a complex process and is dependent on the relationship between the supplied material and the processing conditions. The properties of the plastic materials are directly dependent on the temperature, time and environment. Any change in the injection moulding variables, such as temperature, pressure and speed, the mould temperature, the mould cooling temperature, the backpress ...

Easy positioning of in-bed patients with reduced mobility (EPOSBED)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2010,

"The Need The in-bed positioning of patients with limited mobility is of major importance in order to prevent the worsening of their health condition and improve their comfort. The lack of autonomy to undertake basic movements and postural changes causes anguish and discomfort in these patients. Nowadays, nurses need to change manually the position of patients every 2 to 4 hours. The manual handli ...
