BIOMEDIKAL ONLINE PROJECT CONTEST

BIOMEDIKAL.IN offers you an unique opportunity to showcase your project so that you can get suggestion from other biomedikal.in readers about your project and that may also help you land up in some job
To do that you have to just upload on FB page
1.a picture of your project
2. Title, subtitle with a 200 words abstract/ summary of how it works
3. Your Name, team members name and mentor if any and educational institute name

Projects can be uploaded till 27th May 2013 and then the winners will be decided

Date: 1st March 2013

Aureola 3.0 is here again…………

The Technical Committee of NIT Raipur) brings you Aureola 3.0……

Aureola 3.0 invites participants from various branches to apply their domain specific knowledge to the healthcare problems for the betterment of Human society…..!!!!

1)Overview..
It consist of 2 Events ..

The heart is a complex three-dimensional structure with mechanical properties that are inhomogeneous, non-linear, time-variant and anisotropic. These properties affect major physiological factors within the heart, such as the pumping performance of the ventricles, the oxygen demand in the tissue and the distribution of coronary blood flow.

During the cardiac cycle the heart muscle tissue is deformed as a consequence of the active contraction of the muscle fibers and their relaxation respectively. A mapping of this deformation would give increased understanding of the mechanical properties of the heart. The deformation induces strain and stress in the tissue which are both mechanical properties and can be described with a mathematical tensor object.

The number of patients that are waiting for heart transplants far exceed the number of available donor hearts. Left Ventricular Assist Devices are mechanical alternatives that can help and are helping several patients. They work by taking blood from the left ventricle and ejecting that blood into the aorta.

An innovative cough detector uses acoustic respiratory monitoring (ARM) to detect wheezes, rhonchi, and coughs, aiding the diagnosis of respiratory conditions.

The Wheezometer device is an ultrasound-based cough detector using ARM technology that fits against a patient’s neck, automatically detecting coughs and counts coughing events by detecting both high and low frequency mechanical vibrations in the tracheal area, and then tracking their severity and duration. The device then stores that data or sends it wirelessly to a computer or other logging device. Just 30 seconds of breath sounds are sufficient to use the advanced signal processing algorithms to detect, quantify, and objectively document the presence of wheeze and its extent.

Kinesthesia: “Awareness of the position and movement of the parts of the body.”
