37. Metodologia de priorização de equipamentos medico-hospitalares em programas de manutenção preventiva
The safety of patients and users, the quality in the service and a higher availability of medical equipment are goals and constant worries in health institutions. Programs of preventive maintenance contribute to achieve these targets, but the inclusion of all equipment becomes financially not viable for the institution. 50 it is necessary to develop a way es

39. Bioactive Hierarchical Structures for Genetic Control of Bone Morphogenesis
For thirty years it has been known that certain compositions of Na2O-CaO-P2O5-SiO 2 glasses will form a mechanically strong, chemical bond to bone. These materials have become known as bioactive glasses and the process of bonding is called bioactive fixation. Bioactive glasses are widely used clinically in the repair of bone defects. Recent research at the I

40. Desenvolvimento de uma metodologia para codificação de defeitos em equipamentos medicos
The maintenance management of medical equipment have always been the basic activity of Clinical Engineering in Health Institutions. There are two types of documents: Work Order and the Maintenance History, that are the principal source of information to elaborate management accounts. Among the various items that compose this documents, two of them are intend

42. Current state of cartilage tissue engineering
Damage to cartilage is of great clinical consequence given the tissue's limited intrinsic potential for healing. Current treatments for cartilage repair are less than satisfactory, and rarely restore full function or return the tissue to its native normal state. The rapidly emerging field of tissue engineering holds great promise for the generation of functi

44. Adaptation and development of software simulation methodologies for cardiovascular engineering: present and future challenges from an end-user perspective
This paper describes the use of diverse software tools in cardiovascular applications. These tools were primarily developed in the field of engineering and the applications presented push the boundaries of the software to address events related to venous and arterial valve closure, exploration of dynamic boundary conditions or the inclusion of multi-scale bo

45. Enhanced Meniscal Repair by Overexpression of hIGF-1 in a Full-thickness Model
The importance of the menisci to the well-being of the normal knee is well-documented. However, there is no ideal repair or reconstructive approach for damaged menisci. Gene therapy provides one promising alternative strategy, especially when combined with injectable tissue engineering to achieve minimally invasive clinical application. We asked whether the

46. The application of biofilm science to the study and control of chronic bacterial infections
Unequivocal direct observations have established that the bacteria that cause device-related and other chronic infections grow in matrix-enclosed biofilms. The diagnostic and therapeutic strategies that have served us so well in the partial eradication of acute epidemic bacterial diseases have not yielded accurate data or favorable outcomes when applied to t

47. Infectious Disease Issues in Xenotransplantation
Xenotransplantation, the transplantation of living organs, tissues, or cells from one species to another, is viewed as a potential solution to the existing shortage of human organs for transplantation. While whole-organ xenotransplantation is still in the preclinical stage, cellular xenotransplantation and extracorporeal perfusion applications are showing pr
