Embodiments of the present disclosure encompass systems and methods for in-situ/in vivo, bottom-up tissue generation for wound repair, repair of tissue defects, and the like. Embodiments of the systems of the present disclosure include modular scaffolds seeded with cells (modular tissue forming units (MTFUs)) for packing a tissue defect, such that these MTFUs are able to fill the wound bed with cells of one or more needed tissue types supported by the modular scaffolding particles.

The present invention relates to a system and method for controlling transdermal and automatic release of a sedative during imaging of a subject. A sedation level of a patient is detected during an imaging procedure. An amount of sedative to be applied to the patient to sustain a certain level of sedation is calculated. Further, a time for releasing the amount of the sedative is calculated. The calculated amount of the sedative is released at the calculated time transdermally to the patient.

The invention concerns improvements in needle-free devices for delivery of therapeutic and/or prophylactic agents, such as solid dose drugs, including vaccines. The needle-free device disclosed herein comprises novel structural arrangements and modes of actuation and operation, resulting in enhanced functionality and benefits to the user and/or patient.

A skin care device can include a body including a battery and a grip electrode electrically connected to the battery, and a head connected to one end of the body. The head includes a contact electrode electrically connected to the battery and configured to come in contact with a skin of a user, and at least one ultraviolet light source disposed inside the head to face the contact electrode. Further, the contact electrode includes a fastening part fastened to the head and having at least one hole formed therein to correspond to the at least one ultraviolet light source, and a plurality of contact protrusions protruding from a top surface of the fastening part.

A handheld tattoo device comprises an elongated body comprising a grip section and an upper section above the grip section. The grip section comprises a coupling end configured to removably couple with a needle module comprising one or more needles. The upper section comprises a needle actuator for actuating the one or more needles through a shaft extending through the grip section, and a battery power source for supplying electrical power to the needle actuator. The device also comprises a user interface on the upper section, the user interface comprising a display and a touch sensor for detecting finger gestures of a user; and a control circuitry in the upper section for controlling the power supplied to the actuator by the battery power source based on user input received through the user interface.

A needle module for a drive-controlled handheld unit for repeatedly piercing human or animal skin, comprising a housing; a needle holder, which can be moved back and forth in the housing in a longitudinal direction of the housing; a piercing device on the needle holder, which can be moved, on account of the movement of the needle holder, between a proximal and a distal position, in which a piercing tip of the piercing device is arranged outside the housing; a coupling component, which is coupled to the needle holder in such a way that a driving movement provided with a repetition frequency by a drive device that can be coupled to the coupling component can be introduced onto the needle holder; and a damping component, which is arranged between the needle holder and the coupling component and is configured to damp a transfer of force therebetween.
