BEBRAPA HAL YANG BERHUBUNGAN DENGAN
BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING
• Bioinstrumentation
• Biomaterials
• Biomechanics
• Biomedical computing & signal processing
• Biomolecular engineering
• Micro-electromechanical systems
• Minimally invasive surgery
• Tissue engineering, ...
Bioinstrumentation
• Aplikasi prinsip elektronik dan pengukuran yg
digunakan untuk diagnosa atau pengobatan
• CONTOH:
– electrocardiogram,
– cardiac pacemaker,
– blood pressure measurement,
– hemoglobin oxygen saturation,
– kidney dialysis,
– ventilators.
Medical Instrumentation:

Examples of medical instrumentation


include: heart monitors, microelectrodes,
defibrillators and glucose monitoring
machines
BIOMATERIALS
• Biomaterials must be
– nontoxic,
– non-carcinogenic,
– chemically inert (not reacting violently with the body's
chemical composition),
– Stable
– mechanically strong enough to withstand the repeated
forces of a lifetime of use.
• Newer biomaterials even incorporate living cells in
order to provide a true biological and mechanical
match for the living tissue.
BIOMATERIALS

• Examples of biomaterials include


– Dental adhesives,
– Bone cement,
– Replacement bones/joints,
– Heart prosthetics,
– Heart replacement valves
– Artificial lungs
– Artificial kidneys.
Biomechanics
• Mechanics applied to biological or medical
problems
• EXAMPLES:
– artificial heart
– replacement heart valves,
– the artificial kidney,
– the artificial hip,
 function of organs
Biomedical computing & signal processing

• Computers are becoming increasingly


important in medical signal processing,
– from the microprocessor used to do a variety of
small tasks in a single-purpose instrument
– to the extensive computing power needed to
process the large amount of information in a
medical imaging system.
Minimally invasive medicine & surgery
• Uses technology to reduce the debilitating
nature of some medical treatments.
• Minimally invasive surgery using advanced
imaging techniques that precisely locate and
diagnose problems
• Virtual reality systems that immerse clinicians
directly into the procedure reduce the
invasiveness of surgical interventions.
Rehabilitation engineering
• A new and growing specialty area of
biomedical engineering
• Rehabilitation engineers expand capabilities
and improve the quality of life for individuals
with physical impairments.
• Because the products of their labor are often
individualized, the engineer often works
directly with the disabled individual
Biosensors and electrodes
• Sense signals within the body as required for
diagnosis
• These are used to measure:
– the signals from the heart (electrocardiogram),
– lung (spirometer),
– blood (glucose sensor),
– vessels (blood flow) and
– body (temperature)
Telemedicine
• Delivering health care at a distance
• Diagnosis
• Therapy
• Real-time consultation
Tissue engineering
• The principles of engineering and life sciences
are applied toward the generation of
biological substitutes aimed at the creation,
preservation or restoration of lost organ
function. This field is dedicated to the
creation of new functional tissue
BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERS
• Biomedical Engineers have expertise in:
– engineering science,
– biological science
– medical science.
• Biomedical engineering is usually based on one of the
traditional engineering disciplines, such as electrical or
mechanical engineering.
• New fields of biomedical engineering include areas:
– medical electronics,
– clinical engineering,
– biomaterials,
– rehabilitation engineering.
APLICATION of BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

• Applications of biomedical engineering is


almost endless and is developing every day, it
includes
– cardiac monitors  clinical computing,
– artificial hearts  contact lenses,
– wheel chairs  artificial tendons,
– modeling dialysis therapy  modeling the
cardiovascular system.
• Biomedical engineers are also integral in the
management of technology in hospitals and
health care delivery.
