Doctors and nurses have long relied on tried-and-true medical technologies to care for their patients, but the ever-increasing focus on patient safety has made innovation in this field a priority. One growing technology is the use of marker bands, which are platform agnostic data capture tools (e.g., barcodes or RFID) used to monitor patient conditions accurately and efficiently. Through its ...

CPR training is more than just a certification; it’s a crucial skill that can save lives in critical situations. In Kentucky, where industries range from manufacturing to healthcare, the demand for comprehensive CPR and first aid training is ever-present. The different levels of CPR training are designed to meet specific needs – from basic techniques for laypersons to advanced ...
In today’s rapidly advancing technological landscape, precision and accuracy are paramount. From the sleek smartphones we rely on to the intricate machinery used in manufacturing, the role of Coordinate Measurement Systems (CMS) cannot be overstated. Let’s delve into how these systems are revolutionizing modern ...
Medical devices are incredibly important in today’s world. They play a significant role in the treatment and prevention of various medical conditions. However, their effectiveness can be compromised if they are not packaged correctly. Packaging is an essential component of maintaining the integrity and shelf life of medical devices, especially during transportation and storage. Read on ...
Precision is not just a preference but a stringent requirement in medical equipment manufacturing. At the heart of this precision lies the role of medical-grade welding gas mixers, an important component in ensuring high-accuracy welding applications, particularly in environments where consistency and quality cannot be compromised. This blog post defines medical-grade welding gas mixers and ...
The production of AAV vectors at a commercial scale requires robust, consistent, and cost-effective systems. Traditionally, vector production involved using adherent cell cultures, which proved inefficient and costly for large-scale operations. ...
Mental health is a critical concern for all companies. One in five individuals will experience a mental health problem during their lives, according to the World Health Organization. For many people, the workplace is where mental health problems first begin and/or become exacerbated. ...
Abstract Objective Noise in the neonatal intensive care unit can be detrimental to the health of the hospitalized infant. Means of reducing that noise include staff training, warning lights, and ear coverings, all of which have had limited success. Single family rooms, while an improvement, also expose the hospitalized infant to the same device alarms and mechanical noises found in open bay ...
Keeping biologicals at low temperatures is an established and effective way of maintaining their potency. This is critical for many types of medicines, vaccines, reagents, and biological samples, which is the reason why laboratories, hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and more employ medical-grade refrigerators to protect their samples from ambient ...
The Solution ClickZip™ Needle Retractable Safety Syringe and Retractable Safety Butterfly Needles are a globally patented Swiss technology active, high quality needle with a simple to use manual retraction mechanism to protect against needlestick injury and prevent needle reuse. ...
This created the second hurdle for businesses, adapting systems to the constant changes in requirements. However, a building materials mill located in the northeastern U.S. with a safety team of 31 people promptly adapted to this “new normal”. They looked to the Redlist HSE software they had been using for 18 months before the Covid-19 pandemic for a ...

Lastly, the environmental impact of needle-based injections is great and largely unquantified. A reusable system, like our needle-free injector, that produces less waste in total and eliminates biohazardous waste inherently would be a better choice for pharmaceutical companies looking to have a more sustainable impact. ...
An implantable restorative-neurostimulator system can override the underlying multifidus inhibition by eliciting episodic, isolated contractions. The ReActiv8-B randomized, active-sham-controlled trial provided effectiveness and safety evidence for this system, and all participants received therapeutic stimulation from four months onward. ...
However, in other sectors such as hospitals, chlorine is usually stored in liquefied gas cylinders where a leak could generate dangerous environments and are therefore confined in containment rooms with safety systems. The disadvantage of using chlorine in this format lies in the necessary storage and transport conditions. ...
It appears that high-contact sports such as hockey and football are becoming much more violent. Although both sports have made efforts to remove unnecessary hits from the game, concussions are inevitable when athletes are as strong and fast as they are today. The only reasonable solution is to improve the safety equipment the players use in hopes of protecting them from a traumatic brain ...
Over the last few decades, scientists have gained a much better understanding of what happens to your brain during a concussion. It’s allowed them to understand better the devastating effects that a traumatic brain injury can have, and how to treat them properly. Unfortunately, the general public does not understand how nasty a concussion can be. To gain a better appreciation, you can ...
Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff Introduction This guidance document provides Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA’s or the Agency’s) recommendations on testing to assess the safety and compatibility of medical devices in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment and the recommended format for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Safety Information in ...
