Hospital rooms beep and flash with many devices that are increasingly getting infected with malware (see “Computer Viruses Are ‘Rampant’ on Medical Devices in Hospitals”). But for several reasons, these gadgets are often incompatible with commercial security software.
Now, new technology developed by academic researchers could catch most malware on the devices just by noting subtle changes in their power consumption. This could give hospitals a quick way to spot equipment with dangerous vulnerabilities and take the machines offline. The technology could also apply to computer workstations used in industrial control settings such as power plants.
ME/ M.Tech or equivalent degree with at least 60% marks OR B.Tech / BE with at least 60% marks and 2 yrs research experience OR MBBS or equivalent degree with 60% marks and 1 year of research experience OR M.Sc. /BE/B.Tech with at least 55% marks and 2 years of research of relevant work experience Desirable qualification· Prior experience with signal processing techniques and / or and imaging analysis techniques will be given preference. Research background in the design and statistical analysis of functional brain imaging experiments.· Experience with SPM, FSL UNIX / LINUX / and / or programming skills (MATLAB, C++)
A novel program intended for fresh B tech biomedical engineers to get familiarized with the health care technology from a hospital perspective.
The medical field is becoming more and more dependent on technology for the better health care delivery.
Here there is unmet requirement for skilled technical person with updated knowledge in medical equipment and technologies. At present the courses such as B tech biomedical engineering doesn’t give sufficient knowledge and practical exposure to the latest medical technologies and skills, guidelines required for health care technology management. In this circumstance, department of biomedical engineering, Cochin medical college attempt to fill this gap by conducting the course for freshers ( 2013 pass out ) biomedical engineers.
The Department of BioMedical Engineering, SRM University, Chennai, has organized a series of ‘BIOYANTRA’ a National Level Technical Event in the yester years. In this year, it is organized with the theme: “National Symposium on Medical Devices” in association with Philips Healthcare India Ltd & Consortium of Biomedical Engineers. This Symposium emphasizes on the interaction of Medical Industry professional with the young biomedical engineering students. Often it is a big problem for employment in the medical industry for fresher due to the lack of knowledge about the modern medical devices in the market and its technology. As we know that health related problems are increasing day by day. This increases the demand of health care services. In order to reduce the healthcare related problems, first we have to identify the diseases in its early stage and give the treatment for curing the disease. For that, innovation is required in the biomedical field, that is, low cost medical equipment which is affordable for the common man should be the main goal and mantra of a biomedical engineer. To bring this dream into reality, both doctors and medical industry should interact with biomedical engineering students to share their experiences, problems and knowledge in order to create a better world by giving better healthcare services for the patients. Hence, this event is an attempt to create new innovative product in future by sharing the past and present experience of medical industry professionals with the young biomedical engineers.
Proteus Digital Health became the first company to receive Food and Drug Administration approval for an ingestible biomedical sensor that monitors the patient’s compliance to medication.
This ‘sensor-enabled tablet’ called Helius comes with an ingestible event marker. It can be administered with pills or incorporated into medicines by the manufacturers. Once swallowed, the sensor is activated by stomach acid. Then, it transmits a signal through the body to the skin patch attached to the skin of a patient, indicating that the patient has ingested medication.
