“…Other types of medical devices, designed for use in LLMICs, have been proven effective in helping to achieve this. [30][31][32][33] Several designs of infusion pumps have already been developed, [34][35][36][37][38] however none have been widely deployed yet. Trialing the use of specifically designed infusion pumps could help improve the accessibility of quality of infant hydration, nutrition and drug delivery.…”

There has been limited review of the reported deployment of infusion pumps in low- and lower-middle-income countries. This paper aims to identify the current distribution of infusion pumps in low- and lower-middle-income countries (LLMICs) used to treat neonates. A rapid review was conducted using material sourced from ProQuest, Pubmed, Web of Science, and IEEE Xplore. Twenty-six search results met the inclusion criteria. Within these, 41 neonatal healthcare facilities were discussed with 17 of the facilities having infusion pumps available, 13 limited access, and 11 none. Infusion pump use remains limited in Sub-Saharan Africa so efforts should be made to deploy specialist neonatal care improvement packages, potentially including infusion pumps designed for LLMICs. The effects of COVID-19, to neonatal care LLMICs, should be accessed to ensure progress has not regressed. These proposals aim to aid in the continued improvement of neonatal care globally and reduce newborn mortalities.

“…Consider that Prv is a simple MCU implementing a syringe pump that allows remote physicians to monitor and deliver medication to patients over a network, e.g., as described in [20]. Given the safetycritical and real-time nature of this application, it is paramount to verify that the execution of operations in Prv happens as expected, e.g., that Prv injects an accurate and timely dosage to the patient; otherwise, it may lead to under/overdose, affecting the patient's well-being.…”

Embedded devices are increasingly ubiquitous and their importance is hard to overestimate. While they often support safety-critical functions (e.g., in medical devices and sensor-alarm combinations), they are usually implemented under strict cost/energy budgets, using low-end microcontroller units (MCUs) that lack sophisticated security mechanisms. Motivated by this issue, recent work developed architectures capable of generating Proofs of Execution (PoX) for the correct/expected software in potentially compromised lowend MCUs. In practice, this capability can be leveraged to provide "integrity from birth" to sensor data, by binding the sensed results/outputs to an unforgeable cryptographic proof of execution of the expected sensing process. Despite this significant progress, current PoX schemes for low-end MCUs ignore the real-time needs of many applications. In particular, security of current PoX schemes precludes any interrupts during the execution being proved. We argue that lack of asynchronous capabilities (i.e., interrupts within PoX) can obscure PoX usefulness, as several applications require processing real-time and asynchronous events. To bridge this gap, we propose, implement, and evaluate an Architecture for Secure Asynchronous Processing in PoX (𝐴𝑆𝐴𝑃). 𝐴𝑆𝐴𝑃 is secure under full software compromise, enables asynchronous PoX, and incurs less hardware overhead than prior work.

“…A prototype pump actuated by a piezoelectric stack actuator is developed and a PID feedback controller is designed for the drive of the injection device [7]. The electric drive in the injector devices allows creating high precision medical and veterinary devices with control based on microcontroller [8] or Rasberry Pi minicomputer [9], or even advancements in wireless technologies and internet of things (IoT) [10]. However, in existing devices, the drive of the plunger rod is carried out by stepper motors, micro-motors, electromagnets or piezoelectric elements that do not directly provide linear reciprocating movement of the plunger rod.…”

Automatic Syringe for Farm Animals Vaccination

Existing injectors use the manual, mechanical or pneumatic drive. These types of drive do not allow making mass vaccination of farm animals automatic. In case of large livestock herd, vaccination is a labour intensive and complicated process. In the livestock sector, mass vaccination is carried out with intervals from several days to several months and depends on the type of animals, their breed and age. If vaccination is not provided or done incorrectly; then the weight gain of animals decreases, and the loss of livestock increases, which causes direct losses to farmers and to livestock enterprises. Therefore, special attention should be given to animals vaccinations, and scientific and technical developments for the vaccination process improvement are relevant worldwide. The developed automatic injector is a stand-alone small hand electric tool. It has an ergonomic design with a convenient location in the hand of a veterinarian and allows you to automate the process of farm animals vaccinations. A distinctive feature of the developed automatic injector is the use of linear electric motor which moves the syringe without the efforts from a veterinarian. The electric drive expands the functionality of the injector, makes the vaccination process less costly and more informative for the veterinary services using RFID identification of farm animals.
