How bioengineers tackled the leaky mask problem

July 7, 2021 By Nancy Crotti

Researchers from Harvard and MIT have formed a company to mass-produce a more effective three-ply mask for everyday use. Anyone who wears glasses knows that the ubiquitous blue pleated mask leaks vapor upward, despite the wire designed to conform to the shape of the nose. Less obvious is the leakage from the mask’s sides and […]

MIT researchers may have invented a safer way of splitting ventilators

May 27, 2020 By Lee Teschler

MIT and Brigham and Women’s Hospital researchers say they have a way of splitting ventilators which could address many of the safety concerns — potentially boosting the supply of ventilators amid the COVID-19 pandemic. They have demonstrated their concept’s effectiveness in the lab — but they still caution it should be used only as a last resort […]

Why adding device identifiers to insurance claims protects patients

May 22, 2017 By Heather Thompson

The pushback to adopting unique device identifier into claims forms is that the added steps will be burdensome for hospitals. But documenting device identifiers in claims forms is actually “feasible” and “straightforward,” and requires only modest effort, according to a new whitepaper from Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Of particular concern was that the device claims […]

This ingestible sensor is powered by stomach acid

February 28, 2017 By Danielle Kirsh

MIT and Brigham and Women’s Hospital researchers have announced an ingestible device innovation: a small voltaic cell that can withstand the acidity of fluids in the stomach and still transmit information to a base station. The small device can stay in the gastrointestinal tract for long periods of time and can produce enough power to […]
