Long-term, subdermal implantable EEG recording and seizure detection
… work aims to address this need by proposing a subdermal implantable, eight-channel EEG recorder and seizure detector that has two modes of operation: diagnosis and seizure counting. In the diagnosis mode, EEG is continuously recorded with a 500 Hz bandwidth. This bandwidth is five times higher …

Design and testing of wearable and long-term subdermal implantable electroencephalograms
… a previously designed EEG ASIC. A design for a subdermal, implantable EEG recording system for long term EEG monitoring as well as a simplified wearable and wireless EEG sensor is realized. The implantable design is an 8-channel, 250Hz bandwidth EEG system in a 14.0mm x 15.5mm package that is …

Subdermal Fat Determined by Ultrasound and Electrical Conductivity, and Its Relationship to Body Condition Score of Dairy Cows
… relationship between body condition score and subdermal fat (SFAT) was determined biweekly as potential for development of a low cost, portable digital ultrasonic or conductivity sensor for BCS. Digitized scans of subdermal fat were determined from two ultrasonic units equipped with 3.5/5.0 …

Improving Women’s Health Services by Adding Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptive Methods into Primary Care-Focused Student Health
… including intrauterine contraceptives and the subdermal contraceptive implant, are safe, effective, long-acting, easily reversible, and non-user dependent contraceptive methods, yet currently are greatly underutilized. Most of the contraceptive methods are provided at our student health …

Imaging skin structures for health, body mapping, and identification (under the Tucson Skin)
… temperature. The superficial vasculature is the subdermal network of veins responsible for supplying blood to the body. Since these features have important biological functions, monitoring the evolution of these features over time may be impactful. Long-term monitoring of these networks and …

Superficial temporal artery flap: its development and application in the dog and cat
… dogs (n=5), rendered flaps dependent on the subdermal plexus. Dogs in group A (n=5) and the control group (n=5) had flap lengths that extended to the contralateral eye, while group B (n=4) flaps extended to the contralateral zygomatic arch. A11 flap widths were equivalent to the width of the …

UNDERSTANDING ANATOMICAL PERFUSION AND STRATEGIES TO OPTIMIZE VASCULARITY IN FREE TISSUE TRANSFER FOR AUTOLOGOUS BREAST RECONSTRUCTION USING THE DEEP INFERIOR EPIGASTRIC ARTERY PERFORATOR (DIEP) FLAP
… mostly found in the supra-scarpa’s and subdermal layers of the flap, played a key role in defining overall perfusion area and dynamic perfusion patterns not previously described. In conclusion, this work reported the characterization of the microvasculature within abdominal based …

Perspectives on etonogestrel implant use in HIV-infected women in Cape Town, South Africa: a qualitative study among providers and stakeholders
… and antiretroviral therapy (ART). The use of the subdermal Long Acting Reversible Contraceptive (LARC) implant in HIV-positive women is explored in depth, given that the 2012 guidelines introduced the method as an entirely new option for South African women, as well as in light of recent …

Fiberoptic Microneedles for Transdermal Light Delivery
Shallow light penetration in tissue has been a technical barrier to the development of photothermal therapies for cancers in the epithelial tissues and skin. This problem can potentially be solved by utilizing minimally invasive probes to deliver light directly to target areas potentially > 2 mm …

A quantitative characterization of tuberculin skin test indurations using hyperspectral imaging to enable automated latent tuberculosis screening
… forearm skin of a participant. An induration – a subdermal lump – forms at the injection site 48 – 72 hours after the test. Using the Mantoux reading method, diagnosis is obtained using a pen and a ruler to measure the induration diameter and comparing it with consensus thresholds. Mantoux …

Dining in the Dark ATP Sensing in the Female Aedes Aegypti Mosquito
… female stylet is highly effective in locating subdermal blood capillaries and that most feeding directly targets the capillaries, a process called “capillary feeding.” In some cases, the stylet obtains blood that is released locally from damaged blood vessels, a process called “pool feeding.” …
