  3. Course Goals • Assessment of structure and mechanical functions of load bearing tissues and their replacements. • Examination of biocompatibility of biomaterials and host response to structural implants. • Quantitative treatment of biomechanical issues and constitutive relationships of tissues and their replacements. • Material selection for load bearing applications including orthopedics, dentistry, cardiology and reconstructive surgery. • Mechanical design for longevity of devices • Understanding of legal and ethical aspects of medical devices. • Development of professional skills: team work, technical writing, oral presentations, design, and teaching.

  4. Lecture topics Overview of medical devices FDA regulatory issues, biocompatibility and sterilization technology Biomechanical properties: isotropy/anisotropy, stiffness, bending, buckling, multiaxial loading, yielding, fatigue, fracture, wear, corrosion, and design issues. Clinical Aspects: Orthopedics, Dental, Cardiovascular, and Soft Tissue Reconstruction. Case studies.

  5. Lab topics • Professional Development: Technical writing, oral presentations, literature searches • Design: Open-ended problem solving,team work, methodology, and assessment • Teaching: Blooms taxonomy, outreach activities, assessments

  6. Biomaterials and implants • Replace component of living being • Restore Function • Harmonious interaction with host • Biocompatibility • Long-term structural integrity

  7. Structural biological materials Hard Tissues: Bone, enamel, dentin Soft Tissues: Cartilage, tendon, ligament, vitreous humor,vasculature,skin, organs Fluids: Blood, synovial fluid Problems when used as an implant material: Infection, resorption, inflammation, rejection

  8. Synthetic Biomaterial Classes • METALS: Co-Cr alloys, Stainless steels, Gold, Titanium alloys, Vitallium, Nitinol (shape memory alloys). Uses: orthopedics, fracture fixation,dental and facial reconstruction, stents. • CERAMICS: Alumina, Zirconia, Calcium Phosphate, Pyrolitic Carbon. Uses: orthopedics, heart valves, dental reconstruction. • COATINGS: Bioglasses, Hydroxyapatite, Diamond-like carbon, polymers. Uses: orthopedics, contact lenses, catheters, in-growth.

  9. Biomaterial Classes cont. • POLYMERS: Silicones, Gore-tex (ePTFE), polyurethanes, polyethylenes(LDPE,HDPE,UHMWPE,), Delrin, polysulfone, polymethylmethacrylate. Uses: orthopedics, artificial tendons,catheters, vascular grafts, facial and soft tissue reconstruction. • HYDROGELS: Cellulose, Acrylic co-polymers. Uses: drug delivery, vitreous implants,wound healing. • RESORBABLES: Polyglycolic Acid, Polylactic acid, polyesters. Uses: sutures,drug delivery, in-growth, tissue engineering.

  10. Applications of Biomaterials • Orthopedics: artificial hips,knees, shoulders, wrists; intervertebral discs; fracture fixation; bone grafts. • Cardiovascular: heart valves, PTCA balloons, pacemakers, catheters, grafts, stents. • Dental: enamels, fillings,prosthetics, orthodontics. • Soft tissue: wound healing, reconstructive and augmentation, occular. • Surgical: staples, sutures, scalpels.

  11. Orthopedic Implants

  12. Dental Implants

  13. Cardiovascular devices

  14. LVAS: Pump Drive Unit

  15. Soft Tissue Reconstruction

  16. Challenges • Biofixation and stability of an implant • Long-term wear and debris generation • In-vivo degradation through complex bio-chemi-mechanical actions • Inert materials do not elicit “pro-active” responses in the body • Solutions are often temporary for tissue replacement
