The company Mercé Electromedicina, S.L., with the collaboration of the Instituto de Biomecánica (IBV) has developed a system capable of modifying the lineal flow of a conventional heart pump, and of converting it into a pulsatile flow. Among the most outstanding features of this system, known as PULSAMED, are its low cost and the fact that it makes it possible to choose pulse-related energy independently from the blood flow you choose. The maximum values reached by pulse-related energy quadruple those found in scientific literature.

 

A new generation of custom implants made by additive manufacturing technologies has been developed to compete with traditional manufacturing techniques in terms of time and cost. A consortium of companies, including Surgival Co. S.A.U., AMES S.A., Biotechnology Institute S.L., Grupo Hospitalario Quirón S.A. and Kanteron Systems S.L.U., in association with two technology centers, the Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia (IBV) and the Instituto Tecnológico Metalmecánico (AIMME), have developed the ADDBIO project. This project has validated a new supply chain for the manufacture of custom medical devices, thereby fully defining all its phases. It has thus taken the definitive step toward confirming the usefulness of 3D printing in the field of custom implants. Different demonstrators have been designed, manufactured and assessed biomechanically with highly satisfactory results.
