Orthopedic implants replace or strengthen a damaged, painful, or deformed bone, cartilage, or joint and restore mobility and flexibility in patients with bone conditions. The demand for orthopedic implants is growing with the increasing number of orthopedic surgeries being performed every year. This is mainly due to the prevalence of musculoskeleta...

The conventional drug discovery and diagnostics technologies are unable to cope up with the current disease management practices. To this end, researchers have explored possibilities beyond life sciences. Specifically, they have figured out that the use of engineering principles to biological systems can revolutionize the drug discovery and diagnos...

Comprehensive wound assessment is vital to understand the nature of wounds and devise evidence-based and cost-effective therapeutic interventions. However, traditionally used methods for wound diagnosis and monitoring cannot accurately measure wound dimensions, require physical contact with the wound, which causes discomfort to the patients, and ca...

Rising healthcare and surgery costs are increasing the burden on healthcare systems, making it difficult for hospitals to offer high-quality care at affordable prices. Time-consuming manual processes that significantly impact surgeon time and workload, hospital cost increases due to delayed surgery, and low patient satisfaction levels due to human ...

The Frost & Sullivan research service discusses the cell and gene therapy (CGT) market and highlights some key roadblocks in viral vector manufacturing. While many CGT candidates exist in the pipeline, there is a huge capacity deficit that the industry is collaboratively trying to address. Scalability, costs, reproducibility, and overall process ef...

Connected medical devices are experiencing major interest from the healthcare industry because of their ability to integrate digital technologies, link with smartphones and online platforms, and share data. Advanced and small-sized sensors are set to accelerate the miniaturization of connected medical devices and improve their accuracy. As such, sm...

RNA therapeutics is a rapidly expanding field of next-generation medicine. RNA therapy typically comprises 4 different classes of molecules: non-codingRNA (ncRNA), antisense oligonucleotide (ASO), messengerRNA (mRNA), and RNA aptamer. Small ncRNAs are like a double-edged sword; they can either up- or down-regulate specific genes. Contrarily, long...

The COVID-19 pandemic has not only revealed supply chain challenges in terms of meeting pandemic-induced demand but also showcased weaknesses with regard to facing disruptions on a global scale. Immediate impacts include supply volatility, steep price increases, and high levels of uncertainty. Despite the manufacturing reboot, supply chain inter...
