“…Rapid prototyping enables clinicians to not only visualize the human body, but also provide tactile insights into physiological processes and complex pathologies (Nocerino et al 2016). This manufacturing method also helps reduce material requirements while providing the same structural strength as predicate devices (Yan et al 2019). Despite the advances in the use of additive technologies in medical procedures, there are a number of challenges yet to be overcome.…”

The current medical device industry thrives on material redundancy and continues to advocate for a use-and-throw model of practice. Such redundancies are vital to ensure the safety of patients by preventing reinfection from reused devices, but the risks and costs of the waste generated are leaving hospitals and third-party resource handlers wary of future challenges.The Industry 4.0 revolution has started to redefine the production and consumption models of many industries. The main advantages of adopting these methods have been increased efficiency of systems and a reduction of redundant resources. But how do these new technologies help reduce the waste generated in medical procedures? This paper scopes the opportunities that come with implementing industry 4.0 to reduce procedural caused medical waste. These challenges and opportunities have been analysed at four hierarchical levels of innovation; the system, service, procedural and product levels. The research indicates that although the adoption of industry 4.0 concepts in healthcare is contributing to a more efficient use of resources, more research is required focused specifically on its impact on the production of procedure-caused medical waste.

“…Una alternativa para la rehabilitación de personas con una función deficiente de las extremidades consiste el uso de ortesis, estos dispositivos externos se utilizan para restringir el movimiento de una parte concreta del cuerpo, protegiendo la zona afectada de las deformaciones y los daños físicos durante la recuperación [7][8]. Entre los parámetros claves para el diseño y manufactura de ortesis se consideran la eliminación de material excedente para reducir el peso del componente y gestionar espacios libres para la ventilación de la piel [9].…”

En la actualidad, una de las principales causas de morbilidad en el Ecuador son las fracturas producidas en la sección del antebrazo en adolescentes empleándose yeso para la recuperación del paciente, provocando dificultad de movimiento e irritaciones sobre la piel. Una alternativa a este dispositivo son las ortesis impresas en 3D, las cuales cumplen con características principales de estabilidad, rigidez y densidad. En esta investigación se realizó el diseño de una ortesis empleando la selección de material, simulación y optimización topológica. Se determinó que el material óptimo es el PLA, mientras que en la simulación se obtuvo que el espesor mínimo de la ortesis es de 4 mm, cumpliendo con los requerimientos de esfuerzos y deformaciones admisibles para los cuatro movimientos que ejerce la muñeca, así como una reducción representativa del 9,58% de masa del diseño preliminar durante la optimización topológica.
