Life-Saving Invention Simplifies Treatment of Heart Disease

An irregular heartbeat, which is scientifically termed as a cardiac arrhythmia, can begin at a moment’s notice before rapidly becoming worse. A couple of decades ago, in the ‘60s, a physician by the name of L. Julian Haywood found a way to monitor an individual’s heart continuously, watching for a change in its rhythm and then alerting doctors and nurses when an anomaly was found. Before that, in 1956, Haywood was in year two of his internal medicine residency at the Los Angeles County General Hospital. He had concluded his residency at the Howard University and the University of Virginia…

MIT Scientists Develop Better Amputation Surgery to Improve Patients’ Outcomes

Researchers from MIT have developed an amputation surgery that can assist amputees to control their residual muscles better. The researchers say that this should help patients have better control of their prosthetic limbs while also reducing phantom limb pain. Many muscles that are used to control the movement of an individual’s limbs occur in pairs, which alternately contract and stretch. When a limb is amputated using the conventional method, sensory feedback is cut off, and the movement of these muscles is restricted, which makes it even harder for amputees to sense any force applied to their prosthetic limbs or to…

Scientists Work to Develop Everyday Objects with Germ-Killing Capabilities

Researchers are working on advances in the fields of nanotechnology and biomaterials which may help develop objects that eliminate viruses automatically. Breakthroughs in the advancements made in both fields could help fight against deadly viruses like the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is the strain that causes Covid-19. Scientists from the Indian Institute of Science described various factors being explored by researchers in the field to design surfaces that could fight and eliminate viruses and increase vaccine efficacy. In their study, which was published in the APL Bioengineering journal, Kaushik Chatterjee, who is one of the authors of the study, explained that…

How Therapeutic Hypothermia Could Benefit ICU Patients

A recent study discovered how lower temperatures improved a surfactant’s activity, showing that therapeutic hypothermia is a possible treatment option for ARDS, which impacts roughly one-tenth of intensive care unit (“ICU”) patients globally. Apart from patients in ICUs, critical coronavirus patients also suffer from acute respiratory distress syndrome. In layman’s language, therapeutic hypothermia is the intentional cooling of an individual’s body. Research conducted by Chiara Autilio and colleagues from the Jesus Perez-Gil laboratory at the Complutense University of Madrid demonstrates how therapeutic hypothermia works at the molecular level in an individual’s lungs; the research also notes how this method could…
