Funded Activity Summary

Development of a novel flex sensor for use on catheters in medical pressure diagnostic tools. This research project will lead to a significant improvement on the technologies currently available to diagnostic tests of swallowing dysfunctions in children. The proposed technology is much needed and will enable future development of more direct and targeted interventions to assist with feeding based on these measurement techniques. In addition, the knowledge and expertise learned from this project as applied to such a miniature medical device comprises sufficient generic know-how to be useful in developing other biomedical devices. These developments will have a tangible technological impact in a way that will help the Australian biomedical industry be more competitive in the global market.
