Industry Projects

Our projects are designed by experts in the industry to reflect industry standards. By working through our projects, Learners will gain a practical understanding of what they will take on at a larger-scale in the industry. In total, there are 3 Projects that are available in this program.

Explain the Surgical Procedures associated with the Gastrointestinal and Urinary Systems

This is a theoretical project that requires the learners to write a brief report about the two surgical procedures associated with the gastrointestinal and urinary systems. The report will have to include the diagnostic technique used, the surgical solution, and the procedure followed in detail. The learners will also have to elaborate on the instruments and implants used, as well as the postoperative care/measures taken.

Multi-Parameter Patient Monitoring System

Learners are required to design a multi-parameter physiological monitoring system. The design should explain the physiological signals selected with specifications, a schematic diagram of the multi-parameter monitoring system, safety requirements, and how the design is qualified. Additionally, they must illustrate the display screen's layout and the methods for gathering and storing data. Furthermore, students will be required to design an ICU with beds by using a multi-parameter monitor and network it with other devices. Moreover, students will be required to design a central nursing station.

Robotic Surgery for Kidney Transplantation

Learners are required to write a report on robotic surgeries for kidney transplantation. The analysis should include specific requirements, the surgical robot used and the procedure it follows (with a block diagram), a flow chart of the procedure, and the tasks performed by AI used in robotic kidney transplantation. Learners are also required to include the preoperative, operative, and postoperative steps taken to ensure a successful surgery. They must also detail the ethical concerns and regulations of a kidney transplant procedure, and mention the machine classifications and IEC 60601 standards applied to the equipment.
