Egestion has always been a major hindrance in terms of long-term care for bedridden patients. How can we enhance comfort for both the caregiver and the care recipient, while also realizing convenient cleaning?
Daxin’s Automatic Toileting Device revolutionizes traditional cleaning methods and relieves family members and health workers from the trouble of periodically changing diapers. The Automatic Toileting Device can also effectively reduce infection and provide a cleaner, more comfortable experience for long-term bedridden individuals.

Adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD) is a common foot problem, which can cause painful deformity of feet and affect walking function. Medial calcaneal displacement osteotomy (MCDO), a corrective surgery, is often used to treat flat foot deformity for correction of the hindfoot alignment and promote the success rate of surgical intervention.

Chronic periprosthetic infection is a devastating complication following total knee arthroplasty, and two-stage revision is gold standard for treatment due to high infection eradication rates (as high as 80–90%). The first stage includes removal of the prostheses, debridement, and temporary implantation of an antibiotic-loaded cement spacer to treat the infection. The second stage includes removal of the spacer and re-implantation of the prostheses after the infection control. The articulating spacer may provide better range of motion, improved functional outcome, and easier subsequent reimplantation.
However, due to the rough design or unstable mechanical structure of the spacer which was hand-made by surgeons or sold in the market in Europe and the United States, several articulating spacer-related mechanical complications had occurred. These problems might lead to further surgery, poor functional outcomes, prolonged treatment courses during interim stage, and difficulty in reimplantation.

Conventional stomal adhesive bags had some disadvantages including detachment and leakage problems that led to chemical dermatitis and patients’ fear. It cannot prevent stomal prolapse and limit patients’ activity. The invention can solve pouch detachment and avoid pouch leakage. It not only can treat stomal prolapse but also increase patients’ activity.

With aging, the occurrence of cancer increases, and a precise anti-cancer drug screening greatly benefits patients and healthcare system. With aging the tissue repairing ability also declines. The biomaterials help tissue repairing will be the core of next generation medical devices. GEcoll combines Large Segment (LS) gene editing technology and synthetic biology platforms to develop humanized extracellular matrix for humanized in vitro microenvironment. Our humanized in vitro microenvironment can be used in the fields of personalized anti-cancer drug screening and tissue repairing and regeneration. GEcoll meets the needs of personal precision medicine.

The use of power sprayers in slope orchard is limited by steep terrain and also has the risk of pesticide exposure. The flexible UAV equipped with the identification system can recognize the occurrence of litchi stink bug, is adaptable to the terrain. And three-dimensional space intelligent path planning algorithm automatically organizes the suitable route of UAV. The system achieves the precise application, minimizes pesticide usage, and improves efficiency.

In order to tackle sleep disorder, our team proposes a portable
lightweight system, which contains two main functions:AI sleep analysis and neural feedback training.
First, AI sleep analysis provides an objective assessment of sleep quality through our algorithm.Next, the most important feature of our product is to provide a real-time neural feedback training program which could guide users to improve their sleep quality. In addition, this function has been testing in the clinical condition of patients.

This technology is a collaboration of the minds of the human brain and artificial intelligence through the expertise of doctors and AI analysis. It enhances the efficiency of helping non-ophthalmologist physicians conduct the detection of subtle lesions in fundus images, and eliminates the inconvenience of referrals to ophthalmologists. The technology therefore increases the early detection rate for potential patients and reduces the cost of healthcare and social care.

Placement of nasogastric (NG) tube is a common procedure in clinical setting to provide feeding or administration of drugs. The NG tube has to be confirmed to the location of the stomach before feeding. Misplacement of NG tubes to the trachea can lead to life-threatening condition, such as aspiration pneumonia after feeding into trachea.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is that the median nerve compression within the "carpal tunnel" enclosed by the carpal bone and the support band (transverse ligament). When the median nerve is compressed, it will cause numbness, swelling, pain, and even muscle atrophy. It's so bothering!

The majority of some fractures are related to osteoporosis. If surgical intervention with plate fixation is used, loss of reduction and implant failure due to osteoporosis is a common consequence. In order to reduce the rate of surgical failure and improve bone stability.A new bone plate system is designed and the design of interlocking bone plates is used to improve stability and safety.

Statistically, the average life expectancy of all people in our country is steadily increasing by advanced medical technology. Stroke incidence is the fourth leading cause of death in Taiwan. Insufficient therapist manpower? In addition to medication, the best way to improve function is rehabilitation. Intelligent lower limb rehabilitation robot will combine brain wave examination and visual feedback technology which will not only improve the treatment efficiency, but also reduce the medical manpower.

Nostoc commune are wild vegetables that have high nutritional value. However, they are not easily harvested or cleaned, which reduces their commercial value. Our team not only overcomes the above-mentioned problems through innovative cultivation methods, but also increased algenic acid and phycobiliprotein content. Our novel Nostoc commune can be widely used in the food industry, biomedical field, and health products.

Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LCMS) has been the key instrument in advanced analytical laboratories. LCMS often gives the final confirmation of taking illegal drug or food impurities. Nevertheless, all commercial LCMS are bulky and expensive. Therefore, it is impossible to use present commercial LCMS for in-situ real-time analysis. Recently, we developed portable LCMS to make an advanced analytical lab become mobile to easily reach anyplace that needs in-situ, real-time analysis.

ATP BioPharm is an energized start-up biotech company spun out from Taipei Medical University with a focus on drug development for unmet medical needs. Our company is positioned to deliver a best-in-class small molecule from preclinical to clinical stage. ATP BioPharm now possesses a patent-protected HDAC6 inhibitor, MPT0G211.

Cancer is the leading cause of death with an average of one person dying of cancer every eight minutes worldwide. However, the patient-specific therapy is the pursing answer for all cancer experts. The formation and transfer pattern of cancer is diverse for different cancer types and different patients.

Psoriasis affects approximately 2-3% of the world‘s population and is an autoimmune disease and a chronic inflammatory skin disease as a serious global problem. As first-line treatment for psoriasis, corticosteroids often possess serious long-term side effects. Therefore, the most urgent need for psoriasis therapy is developing drugs for long-term use with high efficacy and little side effects. PTB323X, a new botanical drug for the treatment of psoriasis, is developed by the Botanical Drug Technology Division of the Industrial Research Institute. In addition to effectively improving the symptoms of psoriasiform dermatitis in animals, the efficacy of PTB323X is superior to vitamin D derivative and has no skin-related side effect during the experimental period.

Lack of appropriate diagnostic tools for telemedicine and home care? Kaohsiung municipal siaogang hospital and SpectroChip Company (SKB) jointly developed a multi-functional micro-spectrometer to reduce the size of a large examination machine suitable for telemedicine and home care.

Severe dyskalemias are common causes of sudden cardiac death. Prompt recognition and rapid correction of these potassium derangements effectively prevent catastrophic outcomes. The ECG12Net, a deep learning model, can estimate potassium concentration via ECG.
