Postgraduate Diploma in Biomedical Implants and In Vivo Devices

Biomedical implants are medical devices designed to be implanted in the human body to replace or improve the function of a damaged or missing organ or body structure. These implants can be permanent or temporary and can be used for a variety of medical treatments.

In vivo devices are devices prescribed by a physician that are placed inside the human body and remain there for extended periods of time. These devices are used for a variety of medical purposes, such as monitoring heart rate, administering medications, regulating appetite and managing pain.

Biomedical implants and In vivo devices are designed to be compatible with the human body and not to be rejected by the immune system. These devices are made of specialized materials, such as biocompatible plastics, metals and ceramics.

In vivo implants and devices are designed to deliver targeted treatment to a specific part of the body, making them very effective in the treatment of chronic diseases. In addition, treatment efficacy can be monitored with the in vivo device.

Although these devices represent a major advance in medicine, there are certain risks associated with their use that must be weighed before implantation. Patients requesting a biomedical implant or in vivo device should discuss the risks and benefits with their physician and make sure they fully understand the potential side effects or complications.

The goal of the program is to provide students with advanced knowledge in the design and development of biomedical implants and devices, as well as their evaluation and use in humans. Students will learn about the materials used in the fabrication of implants and devices, as well as challenges related to biological compatibility. They will be taught about the sterilization processes and quality standards required for these devices.
