Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

Twist Subtalar Implant System | DJO Global
1. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Twist Subtalar Implant System
900-01-003 Rev N
March 2019
Page 1 of 2
900-01-003 Rev N
Description
The Twist Subtalar Implant is a one-piece titanium alloy implant
comprised of diameters of 7mm to 12mm intended for the treatment of
hyperpronation. System instrumentation includes trials, guide pins, probe,
insertion tool, removal tool, and cannulated driver handle. The implants
and guide wires are intended for single use only.
Implant Materials
All implants are made from Titanium Alloy (ASTM-F136, ASTM-F3001).
The instrumentation is made from medical grades of titanium, stainless
steel, anodized aluminum, and plastic.
Indications
The Trilliant Surgical subtalar implant is indicated for the use in the
treatment of the hyperpronated foot and stabilization of the subtalar joint.
It is intended to block the forward, downward, and medial displacement of
the talus, thus allowing normal subtalar joint motion but limiting excessive
pronation.
Contraindications
Use of the Trilliant Surgical subtalar implant is contraindicated in cases of
active or suspected infection or in patients who are immunocompromised;
in patients previously sensitized to titanium; in patients with
superstructural alignment deformities; in patients with previous subtalar
joint infection or tumor; in patients with inadequate bonestock; or in
patients with certain metabolic diseases.
Warnings
1. Re-operation to remove or replace implants may be required at any
time due to medical reasons or device failure. If corrective action is
not taken, complications may occur.
2. Plates and screws, wires, or other appliances of dissimilar metals
should not be used together in or near the implant site.
3. Instruments, guide wires and implants are to be treated as sharps.
Maintaining Device Effectiveness
1. The surgeon should have specific training; experience and thorough
familiarity with the use of implant devices.
2. The surgeon should familiarize him/her self with the surgical
technique.
3. The Trilliant Surgical subtalar implants are not intended to endure
excessive abnormal functional stresses.
4. All Trilliant Surgical subtalar implants and instrumentation may be
required for each surgery. Failure to use dedicated, unique Trilliant
Surgical instruments for every step of the implantation technique may
compromise the integrity of the implanted device, leading to
premature device failure and subsequent patient injury. Failed
devices may require re-operation and removal.
5. Carefully inspect the Trilliant Surgical implants prior to use. Inspect
the instruments before and after each procedure to ensure they are in
proper operating condition. Instruments that are faulty, damaged, or
suspect should not be used. They should be replaced or sent to
Trilliant Surgical for disposition and repair.
6. The Twist Subtalar Implant System should be used in a sterile
environment.
1. Make a 2-3cm incision on the lateral aspect of the foot over the sinus tarsi along the relaxed skin tension lines. Avoid
the intermediate dorsal cutaneous nerves that should course superior to the incision and sural nerve, which should
course inferior to the incision.
2. Identify the deep fascia and bluntly dissect allowing entrance into the lateral sinus tarsi.
3. Insert the guide pin into the sinus tarsi
from lateral to medial until tenting is noted
anterior and slightly inferior to the medial
malleolus.
4. Introduce the cannulated probe over the
guide pin and into the sinus tarsi with a
gentle twisting motion to slightly dilate the
tarsal canal.
5. Remove the cannulated probe and leave
the guide pin in place.
7. Place the equivalent size implant onto
the insertion tool and introduce over the
guide pin and thread into the joint with a
clockwise rotation to the predetermined
l e n g t h n o t e d f r o m t h e d e p t h
measurement determined from the trial
until clinical correction is noted. The
use of intra-operative imaging in the AP
and lateral view should be used to
verify the final placement of the implant.
The leading edge of the implant should
be 1/3 to half way across the subtalar
joint and the leading edge of the
implant should not cross the long-
itudinal bisection of the talus while the
trailing edge should be more than 5mm
medial to the lateral wall of the
calcaneus.
8. Once the final placement of the implant has been achieved,
assess the range of motion of the subtalar joint. A significant
reduction of excess subtalar joint pronation should now be
appreciated.
9. Remove the insertion tool and the guide pin.
10. Irrigate then close the deep tissue, fascia, subcutaneous tissue,
and skin layers. Place the foot in a mild compressive dressing.
6. Choose the appropriate trial based on the
size and anatomy of the patient. The use
of intra-operative AP and lateral view
imaging is recommended to evaluate the
placement of the trial. Introduce the
selected cannulated trial over the guide
pin into the sinus tarsi from lateral to
medial until the leading edge of the trial is
1/3 to half way across the subtalar joint. The leading edge of the trial
should not cross the longitudinal bisection of the talus and the trailing edge
of the implant should be more than 5mm medial to the lateral wall of the
calcaneus. The appropriate trial size should limit abnormal calcaneal
eversion and will allow approximately 2-4 degrees of subtalar joint eversion.
Once the appropriate size trial is determined, make note of the depth
measurement on the calibrated section of the trial at the skin line and
remove the trial from the joint while leaving the guide pin in place.

Post-operative Care
Assuming no adjunctive procedures were performed, a protective, weight
bearing, below the knee walking cast or boot for 2-4 weeks is used. A
gradual return to limited activity in 4-6 weeks is permitted as tolerated.
Implant Removal
In the event the implant needs to be removed, the threaded removal tool
is inserted into the proximal end of the implant and turned in a counter-
clockwise motion to engage the reverse threads in the cannulation of the
implant to back out and remove the implant.
Cleaning
Non-sterile products must be carefully cleaned prior to sterilization.
Trained personnel must perform cleaning and mechanical inspection prior
to sterilization. Compliance is required with the equipment
manufacturer’s user instructions (manual and/or machine cleaning,
