3D Printing
Also called:
 Additive manufacturing
 Rapid prototyping Technology
 Bio-Printing
HISTORY
 Technology of 1980’s
 Chuck Hull, patented 3D technology process- “Stereolithography” in 1986.

3D Printing
 Prosthetics & Implants
 Reconstructing bones
 Tissue Fabrication
 Customised Body Parts
 Dental Surgery
 Teeth-straightening braces
 Hearing Aids
 Pharmaceutical Drugs

3D Printing in Pharma
Spritam (levetricetam), a drug for epilepsy was 3D Printed.
Same approved by FDA in August 2015

Reconstructing Bones
 British surgeon Craig Gerrand
 Implanted 3D printed Titanium Pelvis 60 year
old cancer patient.

Kaiba Gionfriddo
 6 weeks old
 severe form of tracheobronchomalacia
 CT Scan of bronchus was obtained
 Created computer model of splint
 3D Printed digital model into physical
object.
 Tube-shaped splint was
sewn around Kaiba’s airway
 Even after 20 months, no
breathing problem

Artificial Intelligence
 Empowering Machines
 Clinical Decision support
 For Alzheimer’s Patient
 Predict Drug Resistance
 Support adherence to medication
 Robotic Surgery
 IBM Watson
10

WATSON
Smartest machine ever built
Natural Language, Hypothesis generation, Evidence based learning capabilities
Clinical Decision Support System
Uses treatment guidelines, electronic medical record data, notes from physicians and nurses,
research materials, clinical studies, journal articles, and patient information
11

Internet of Things
 Empowering machines
 Connected devices
 Wearable technology
Applications:
 Intel Smart Band : Tracks how much patients with Parkinson’s disease shake, allow doctors to
collate better information faster.
 Better patient compliance
 Handwash compliance monitoring
$117Bn Industry by 2020 and 10 times more units will be connected to internet.

Poul Houle, Centerville’s 17 year old teen,
USA
8 sept, football training, before match
practice, APPLE SMARTWATCH’s heart rate
monitor tested heartbeat normal between 60
& 70.
Heartbeat raised to 145 after two practices
and informed Poul about it.
It’s normal but even after resting, heartbeat
remained same.
Later diagnosed with “Rhabdomyolysis”

NanoBots in Blood
 Miniature robots
 Function like our own white blood cells and destroy bacteria and other pathogens
 Far from being utilized today
 Delivering chemotherapy 1000 times more powerful than using drugs
 Would not cause as many side-effects to patients like the current treatments do
 Can destroy bacteria, carry oxygen, create blood clots for wounds, and repair cells
15

Types of NanoBots
Microbivore,
Respirocyte,
Clottocyte, and
Cellular repair nanobots
16

Head Transplant
Moore’s law: Simulation of human brain into a supercomputer at faster perceived speed than a
biological brain.
Challenges: Limited understanding of required accuracy, computational speed, plus more data
is required.
World’s first head transplant is under process and is scheduled in 2017 after future research to
support operation success.
Brain Preservation
• CryoPreservation
• ChemoPreservation
17

Conclusion
Technology is revolutionising Healthcare day by day. Some technologies are currently in stage of
infancy and are very promising for healthcare dynamics in future.
3D printing is expected to grow from prototyping technology to a greater extent. And
technologies like NanoBots although are far from being utilized but definitely the future
somehow.
IoT is surely a winner because more and more devices and things are going to connect to the
internet as per estimates.
