Solver Device for Powdery Drugs
Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
Pharmacotherapy is a major treatment method in healthcare centers, and the injection of powdered drugs is among common pharmacotherapy techniques. Medication errors and nosocomial infections are among major health issues in the world. On the other hand, powdered drugs are widely used in hospitals; however, drug mixture is a very time-consuming process. The objective of this invention was to accelerate drug vial mixture, reduce medication errors and nosocomial infections, and save time. There are different drug mixing devices, each with specific abilities. The present invention not only possesses the abilities of other devices but also can mix drugs [with a diluent] with higher quality and accuracy. The drug vial mixing device can mix 20 vials at adjustable time and speed with high quality and accuracy. This device is equipped with an infrared system to ensure a complete mixture of powder, and a Bluetooth short range radio system to remotely control all monitoring options of the device. This is a small and simple-to-use device. The drug vial mixing device can effectively reduce medication errors and nosocomial infections, and save time. Citation: Dalaei Milan M, Abedi H.

An Analytical- empirical Calculation of Linear Attenuation Coefficient of Megavoltage Photon Beams
Background: In this study, a method for linear attenuation coefficient calculation was introduced. Methods: Linear attenuation coefficient was calculated with a new method that base on the physics of interaction of photo...
Diagnosis of OCD Patients Using Drawing Features of Bender Gestalt Shapes
Background: Since psychological tests such as questionnaire or drawing tests are almost qualitative, their results carry a degree of uncertainty and sometimes subjectivity. The deficiency of all drawing test is that the...
A Semi-Automatic Algorithm for Estimating Cobb Angle
Background: Scoliosis is the most common type of spinal deformity. A universal and standard method for evaluating scoliosis is Cobb angle measurement, but several studies have shown that there is intra- and inter- observ...
Manipulation Effect on Lumbar Kinematics in Patients with Unilateral Innominate Rotation and Comparison with Asymptomatic Subjects
Background: Lumbar motion analysis is used as a clinical method in the diagnosis and treatment of low back pain (LBP). So far, no studies have shown if manipulating the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) will change spinal kinematic...
