Project Overview

In both reconstructive and vascular surgery, frequent monitoring of vessel patency/sufficiency from the surface of the skin is a critical practice that guides major clinical/surgical decisions. This is typically accomplished via pencil doppler which requires the application of gel and searching for the doppler signal each time one wishes to evaluate. This project would seek to expand on the device already created by a previous BME design team. The previous design was a self-adhesive capsule that could be placed on the patient's skin for multiple days both marking the vessel under evaluation and holding the ultrasound gel for quick and easy assessment.
