  1. IE497B Biomedical Product Engineering Dr. Richard A. Wysk Spring 2009

  2. Agenda • Policies - This is an engineering course, I do expect you to act like engineering students. Independent, diligent, creative,... • Engineering ethics • There is no cure for improper behavior

  3. Overview • What we will we be doing? • IE497 is new (3rd offering), amorphous and should be lots of fun. It will be the most exciting class that you take. For four plus years, I have been working on medical products development. This area is VERY different than traditional durable goods. Hopefully by the end of the semester, you will see how different commercial and medical systems can be. • Biomedical systems is a difficult topic touching: biology, anatomy, biomechanics, and every aspect of engineering. People do not understand how Biomedical engineering systems fit together. This is the focus of IE497!

  4. Background of IE497 • This is the third time that IE497 (Biomedical Product Engineering) will be offered as an Industrial Engineering course. • Dr. Wysk will be learning along with everybody else in the class, and will try to make this a very interactive course – debates, competitions, etc. • Significant development time has been put into the class, but is still required.

  5. Development activities • Course materials have been developed and need to be tested. You will be the beta testers. • Active, collaborative learning will be the educational focus for the course. I am looking for feedback in this area.

  6. Once in a semester opportunity • We will have 3-4 Position Papers during the semester. • You can volunteer for a particular paper or be assigned as the topics get consumed. • 4-6 people per position (FIFO) • It will be a lot of work but fun as well

  7. Introduction • What is a “Biomedical system”? Interactions of many processes (biological, chemical and mechanical), products and design decisions made in the creation of a medical product or delivery of a medical process/treatment.

  8. Vocabulary • Glossary of terms • Pathogens, bacteria, virus, fungus, biomechanics, Healthcare delivery, ...

  9. Sizes of things Microbes for being small, span a large range of sizes from the T4 virus that are 0.02 µm to giant bacteria larger than 700 µm.

  10. Goal and Objective • GOAL – Provide industrial engineers with a basic understanding of medicine and medical device requirements. • OBJECTIVE -- reduce time for service, increase quality, reduce cost, and operate in a tight capital environment

  11. Organization • M,W,F class sessions to follow our outline. • Make-up sessions?!?

  12. Questions?!? • I expect to learn as much from you as you do from me. • I want this to be fun! • Respect and professionalism.
