Design and Testing of a Superelastic Nitinol Tissue Attachment Mechanism for Long-Term Gastrointestinal Device Retention
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Ingestible devices have become a popular means for diagnosing and treating the gastrointestinal (GI) tract due to their noninvasive nature. However, their residency period in the GI tract is limited by the transit time ...
A Portable, Vacuum-Operated, and Purely Mechanical Device for Extracting Feces by Suction to Cure Chronic Anal Fissures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An anal fissure is a common anorectal problem that affects men and women of all age groups. It initiates with an acute stage that presents as a linear or oval tear in the anoderm and may progress to a more complex chronic ...
Validation of a Repurposed pH Monitoring Capsule for Cecal Applications Using Novel Synthetic Cecal Contents
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study presents a novel approach to monitoring pH changes in the cecum, a critical step toward understanding the dynamic interactions between the gut microbiota and probiotics. By repurposing the Bravo® capsule, ...
Implantation and Carrier Mechanism for Long Term Biosensing in the Small Intestine1

An Intra-Abdominal Catheter Placement Device With Automatic and Accurate Mechanical Indication of Abdominal Cavity Entry for Laparoscopic Telesurgery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Telesurgery applications in laparoscopic surgeries are limited by the need for a surgeon to manually insert the trocar for access to the abdominal cavity. This feasibility study aims to solve this by capitalizing on the ...
