An injection system can have a Syringe Dose and Position Apparatus (SDPA) mounted to a syringe. The SDPA can have one or more circuit boards. The SDPA can include one or more sensors for determining information about an injection procedure, such as the dose measurement, injection location, and the like. The SDPA can also include a power management board, which can be a separate board than a board mounted with the sensors. The syringe can also include a light source in the needle. Light emitted from the light source can be detected by light detectors inside a training apparatus configured to receive the injection. The syringe can have a power source for powering the sensors and the light source. The SDPA and the power source can be mounted to the syringe flange.

Various embodiments of an apparatus, methods, systems and computer program products described herein are directed to an Interaction Engine. According to various embodiments, Interaction Engine generates within a unified three-dimensional (3D) coordinate space, a virtual 3D medical model positioned according to a model pose. The Interaction Engine receives video data from a plurality of video sources. The Interaction Engine renders a first Augmented Reality (AR) display that includes concurrent display of the virtual 3D medical model and visualization of at least a portion of video data from a first video source. The Interaction Engine renders a second Augmented Reality (AR) display that includes concurrent display of the virtual 3D medical model and visualization of at least a portion of video data from a second video source.

Methods of fabricating three-dimensional objects featuring properties of a soft bodily tissue and three-dimensional objects featuring properties of a soft bodily tissue or of an organ comprising same are provided.

Various implementations include a Human Thermoregulation Simulator (HTRS) that simulates the natural and primary thermoregulatory functions of a patient that are relevant during therapeutic hypothermia procedures. For example, in various implementations, a HTRS includes a core container configured to be at least partially filled with water, and the core container includes a heat generator configured to heat the water inside the core container. A middle container is disposed concentrically around the core container, and the middle container includes a foam layer configured to be saturated by water. An outer container is disposed concentrically around the middle container, and the outer container includes a network of tubing disposed on at least a portion of an inner surface of the outer container. The HTRS also includes a pump configured to circulate water from the core container through the network of tubing.

A test apparatus or system for testing impact induced brain trauma a method of making and a method using the same are provided. The system includes a head model, which includes a skull component, a brain component, and a fluid component. The skull component has a wall defining an interior chamber. The brain component includes a gel material and is disposed within the interior chamber. The fluid component is disposed inside the interior chamber. The system may also include a fluid tank fluidly coupled with the skull component and configured to provide the fluid component into the interior chamber. The head model may further include a layer of porous media disposed between the brain component and the interior wall surface of the skull component. The system may include at least one impact element for providing an impact on the head model. The impact is translational or rotational or both.

Medical treatment simulation systems and devices are disclosed. One device includes an overlay, a simulated treatment structure, at least one feedback device, and at least one processor. The overlay is configured to be secured to the live subject and to cover at least a portion of a body of the live subject. The simulated treatment structure is configured to simulate a structure associated with the medical procedure. The at least one feedback device is configured to provide a feedback signal to the live subject. The at least one processor is connected to the simulated treatment structure and the at least one feedback device. The processor is programmed to operate the feedback device to provide the feedback signal based upon input generated from interaction between a treatment provider and the simulated treatment structure. The disclosed devices may be used to simulate intravenous, catheter, defibrillation, and/or thoracic treatments.

To provide an artificial tissue model that can be more advantageously used in surgical technique training compared to previous artificial tissues, as well as a method of fabricating the same. An artificial organ model for surgical technique training comprising two or more fibrous layers 2, 3 layered and bonded to each other so as to be peelable by a surgical technique performed by a surgical technique trainee; the layered and bonded two or more fibrous layers 2, 3 as a whole being saturated with an electroconductive liquid or gel; and two adjacent fibrous layers out of the two or more fibrous layers being formed from different materials or substances or in different colors so as to be recognizable as different membranes by the surgical technique trainee.

An apparatus for adjusting a shoe and methods for making and using the same. A relative movement can be generated between a platform and a model foot wearing the shoe such that the platform contacts the shoe and the model foot adjusts the shoe via the relative movement. Advantageously, the model foot can be a surrogate to a human foot in adjusting the shape of the shoe. The model foot can stretch the shoe in the same manner as human walk. A person can experience great comfort when wearing the stretched shoe. The model foot can simulate the mechanical characteristics of the natural foot. The model foot can simulate gait of a natural foot and the stretching of the shoe can be further customized.
