The document discusses a smart communications platform that provides clinical collaboration, mass notification, and patient engagement capabilities. It allows secure messaging between staff via smartphones, browsers, and nurse call systems. It can also send emergency notifications, medication reminders, and wayfinding directions to patients. The platform integrates with EHR systems and aims to reduce missed appointments, improve patient experience and optimize staff utilization.
This document discusses various options for raising capital that are available to medical device companies, including venture capital, angel investors, and crowdfunding. It notes that venture capital comes with stringent terms such as liquidation preferences and information rights for investors. Angel investors and crowdfunding can provide more favorable terms for companies. New regulations now allow companies to publicly solicit up to $1 million from investors under certain rules through crowdfunding.
This document discusses challenges and best practices for CAPA (corrective and preventative action) programs. It outlines common pitfalls such as implementing actions that don't address the root cause, focusing on timelines over deliverables, and overusing "operator error" as a root cause. Best practices include using a multidisciplinary team approach, evaluating trends, and identifying all relevant inputs to the CAPA process. Effectiveness is best measured by metrics like recurrence rates and timeliness rather than just pass rates of proof of effectiveness. The document provides guidance on how to conduct a robust CAPA process.
The document discusses packaging trends that will help products stand out on retail shelves in 2014. It identifies 10 trends: 1) using high contrast in packaging design, 2) novel shapes, 3) interactive packaging, 4) high luster and white packaging materials, 5) lean and green/sustainable packaging, 6) locally-sourced packaging materials, 7) multi-SKU packaging, 8) trial-sized packaging, 9) less use of secondary packaging and cartons, and 10) modular packaging designs. The conclusion is that flexible packaging and semiotics that convey meaning and value will be important drivers of packaging design.
Enabling the next generation of drug delivery through implantable medical dev...UBMCanon
Wet spinning is a technique for creating drug-loaded fibers that has several advantages over other methods. It takes place at room temperature and low shear stress, avoiding damage to drugs. Nearly any pharmaceutical or biological therapeutic can be incorporated. The drug is protected within the fiber by encapsulating it using excipients, creating a "bubble of happiness" isolated from potentially harsh solvents. Fibers produced through wet spinning can be used to provide sustained drug release for applications like ocular drug delivery and diabetic retinopathy treatment over periods of 6 months or longer using a single dose. Future applications may include using growth factors, proteins, and DNA to guide tissue regeneration and cell differentiation at specific locations in the body.
The document provides information about repair manuals available on ifixit.com for thousands of electronic devices. It summarizes teardown reviews of the iPad Air and Kindle HD7, finding that while the Kindle HD7 has a simplistic modular design that is easy to repair, repairing the iPad Air is very difficult due to its excessive use of adhesive holding components like the battery and LCD in place, greatly increasing chances of damage during repairs. The summary concludes that ifixit.com is a site where users can find repair manuals and tutorials for fixing a variety of electronic devices.

The document discusses how private companies fueled by Texas's business-friendly regulations are leading the new space race through suborbital tourism, future moon landings, and Mars settlements. It outlines several private space companies and their missions, as well as Texas's advantages for the commercial space industry, including its regulatory climate, immunity laws, relocation incentives, access to NASA resources through agreements, and aerospace workforce.
3D Printing - An overview of the alphabet soup of technologyUBMCanon
This document discusses various 3D printing technologies using abbreviations and acronyms and highlights the importance of selecting the appropriate technology based on the intended use of the printed part. It notes that 3D printing can produce physical objects based on CAD files and outlines factors to consider for determining the best fit technology including the part's use conditions, appearance, complexity, role in assemblies, budget, and timeline. The document advocates evaluating these characteristics to select the 3D printing method suited for the specific application.

This document discusses updates being made to ISO 11737-1, the international standard for bioburden testing. It notes that microbiologists are less commonly employed directly by medical device companies now. This can lead to less expertise in critical areas like sterilization validation. The document advocates including knowledgeable microbiologists in product design and process validation decisions. It also provides guidance on challenges like low bioburden testing, sample pooling, atypical bioburden results, and updates being made to the standard to address these issues.
Turning Grain Dust to Gold
Ann Crowley presented on solutions for weighing and automating processes in grain handling facilities. Belt scales, truck scales, railroad track scales, and overhead bins help weigh grain efficiently. Dust collection systems and "grain socks" control dust. Automated vehicle ticketing systems with traffic lights and printers improve traffic flow. Micro-ingredient balances precisely weigh small amounts. The TP-4200NT balance enables low-cost grain testing. Rice Lake provides global sales and support to optimize operations and turn grain dust into gold.
Size reduction and the importance of particle sizeUBMCanon
This document discusses size reduction and the importance of low particle size. It describes how micronization is the process of reducing materials to low micron and sub-micron sizes. This provides several benefits like higher surface area, tighter particle size distribution, more uniform and spherical shapes, and more predictable performance. The document then discusses different micronization applications in industries like pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, chemicals, foods and how micronized particles provide advantages for properties, reactions, and processing in these industries. It also provides an overview of micronizer equipment and operating principles.
How to Select the Right Valve for your ApplicationUBMCanon
This document discusses the many factors that must be considered when selecting a slide gate or diverter valve for handling dry bulk materials. It emphasizes that applications have unique requirements and that both under- and over-specifying a valve can cause problems. The document then outlines sections addressing valve selection, actuator selection, standard modifications, valve location/orientation, and accessory selection to ensure the right valve is chosen.
This document summarizes a presentation by Bert Bertolo of Spiroflow Systems about solving a customer's complex powder handling issues. The customer, a cement manufacturer, was having problems conveying their highly abrasive cement powder. Spiroflow tested the material and recommended a solution involving a bulk bag discharger, flexible screw conveyors, and two aero mechanical conveyors to move the powder from shipping containers to an outdoor silo. This system successfully conveyed the material without issues. The customer was very satisfied with the results and ability to empty containers much faster.
