BMED 2310

Our EZEKG device is unique to solutions currently offered in healthcare as we include a cable management system as well as a cleaning mechanism that removes debris such as blood and dirt from the cables as it passes through the input of the cable housing. Our device creates value by reducing the risk of hospital acquired infections and potential hazards for both the user and the patient. Prototypes based upon feedback from both physicians and nurses, as well as biologists.

BMED 2250

Modeling, creating, and testing an at home device to measure Levodopa concentrations in a patient’s blood plasma by using colorimetry, mass spectroscopy and voltage. This will allow doctors to better identify how often a patient experiences an off period in order to optimize a patient’s dosage. Working with a team of eight biomedical engineering students and two biomedical engineering professors.

BMED 3110

EKG Build using a Bio-amplifier circuit Our study purpose and objectives: Test a condition that changes heart rate variability (HRV) and compare to a normal condition. Literature shows that HRV levels are indicative of stress. This study could show how positive reinforcement during stressful situations could reduce stress levels by increasing HRV and possibly lead to improvement in scores.
