| what is a dermatome designed to do: Humanizing Healthcare – Human Factors for Medical Device Design Russell J. Branaghan, Joseph S. O’Brian, Emily A. Hildebrand, L. Bryant Foster, 2021-02-21 This book introduces human factors engineering (HFE) principles, guidelines, and design methods for medical device design. It starts with an overview of physical, perceptual, and cognitive abilities and limitations, and their implications for design. This analysis produces a set of human factors principles that can be applied across many design challenges, which are then applied to guidelines for designing input controls, visual displays, auditory displays (alerts, alarms, warnings), and human-computer interaction. Specific challenges and solutions for various medical device domains, such as robotic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, artificial organs, wearables, continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps, and reprocessing, are discussed. Human factors research and design methods are provided and integrated into a human factors design lifecycle, and a discussion of regulatory requirements and procedures is provided, including guidance on what human factors activities should be conducted when and how they should be documented. This hands-on professional reference is an essential introduction and resource for students and practitioners in HFE, biomedical engineering, industrial design, graphic design, user-experience design, quality engineering, product management, and regulatory affairs. Teaches readers to design medical devices that are safer, more effective, and less error prone; Explains the role and responsibilities of regulatory agencies in medical device design; Introduces analysis and research methods such as UFMEA, task analysis, heuristic evaluation, and usability testing. |

| what is a dermatome designed to do: Keystone Flap for Complex Orthopaedic Problems Felix Behan, 2025-02-24 KDPIF, or Keystone Design Perforator Island Flap, is the main reconstructive tool available as a valid alternative to microsurgical procedures; its low complication rate is the key to its surgical success. This stepwise guide illustrates the technique’s applications in orthopaedic reconstruction. The sections of the book cover the upper limb (including Dupuytren’s disease), the lower limb defects (from groin to foot) and the rare vascular complications of the technique. The illustrations range from simple to complex cases in an easy-to-follow format, with audio files, acting as a supplementary tool to amplify and illustrate the technique to enhance the reader’s experience and foster clear understanding. The basic design format for all Keystones are highlighted, all sitting within the dermatomal precincts. The KDPIF must contain a fascial base for lining and must be aligned within the dermatomal precincts. This island outline is an essential pre-requisite for its success. It is hypothesized that this islanding creates a sympathectomy effect resulting in hyperaemic blood flow which optimises healing: the KDPIF technique provides an alternative to microvascular procedures where the biggest drawback is tissue match. The KDPIF addresses this problem admirably with a low pain component, an excellent aesthetic match with a low vascular complication rate and executed in an expeditious manner with sensory recovery and resolution of oedema. Keystone Flap for Complex Orthopaedic Problems: Reconstructive Surgery with Audiovisual Guidelines will be a valued companion to plastic and reconstructive surgeons and orthopaedic surgeons, that might find a valid alternative to microsurgical techniques. |

Virtual surroundings and communication rooms, electronic portals and platforms are pushing us into a new world of personal and professional interaction and c- peration. The network to subdue violence is fragile and crumbly, tradition is no longer a power of our community. What of leisure time, dreams, and fantasy? What of education in the family, at school and at university? Travelling round the world to develop yourself –how man becomes man: pleading for a new determination of the idea of education –a mission of past centuries inadequate nowadays? Regarding September 11th last year, the con?icts and confrontations round the globe, and events in our direct surroundings these questions seem to be a cry at least to re?ect upon what is happening around us and where we –all of us –still play an active role. An International Conference on Computers Helping People with Special Needs is like an island –is this a topic at all these days, is it worth disc- sing the area of ICT and the situation of people with disabilities, persons who are segregated from developing their personal and professional careers? Indeed the biennial meeting has never included these actualities, but the basic idea behind ICCHP, starting in 1989, was to focus on these fringe groups and to o?er a platform of exchange on all aspects of Human Computer Interaction and the usage of ICT for people with special needs. |

It has been praised for its artistry and accurate detail but has attracted controversy due to Pernkopf's Nazi connections and the findings of the 1998 commission at the University of Vienna that some of the illustrations were based on executed victims of political terror. It remains unproven however that any illustrations were based on Jewish victims or prisoners or war. |
