Solutions Manual – King & Fries & Johnson

Design of Biomedical Devices and Systems
This answer key is valid for edition 4



This answer manual contains the homework questions by chapter, each followed by a suggested

solution or reason for the question.



Suggested additional topics for each section will be in red & are meant to allow some updating

of material or use of materials that cannot be supplied in the text but must be accessed

elsewhere… (such as the “Closing the Gap” homework in chapter 1…)



As long as it is available, feel free to use Author King’s website information at

http://research.vuse.vanderbilt.edu/king/contact_info.htm for course and related VaNTH and

other research information. Especially of value to instructors of this material will be the linked

coursework at http://research.vuse.vanderbilt.edu/king/bme272.htm (especially the archives) and

http://research.vuse.vanderbilt.edu/design/ and the related 273 information. The sequence BME

272 & 297 & 273 comprised the design sequence at Vanderbilt in BME for a number of years

under author King. Tutorial material and slide shows for the 1st and 2nd editions may be found

at: http://research.vuse.vanderbilt.edu/king/powerpoint_slide_shows_for_cours.htm .



Please send suggestions for additional homework exercises, topics, etc. to author King at

paul.h.king@vanderbilt.edu such that this document might be updated and/or edition 4 be

improved based upon user feedback..

,Chapter 1( Introduction to Biomedical Engineering Design) Material:



1. Often design projects are generated by persons concerned about improving the welfare of
persons close to them (patients, family, friends). Think about your acquaintances and
develop a design project definition. Be sure to detail the who/what/where/why/when
specifics as much as is necessary.

- As this is the student’s first assignment in design, the grades are somewhat determined
arbitrarily in relation to the amount of effort put in and in reference to the efforts of the
students classmates and by the inclusion of principles covered in the text of chapter 1
such as “the who/what/where/why/how of design.”


2. An orthopedic physician has proposed that you study the effect of electrical stimulation
on the healing rate of a bone fracture. Write this request up - briefly - as a research
project. Rewrite this as a design project. Discuss the differences in the approaches.


-The main difference you will be looking for in this problem is that the student
understands that the research project is typically aimed at proving a hypothesis, while the
design project has a goal of improved healing.


3. You have done some form of design project in your personal life (device, plan of action,
project, college choice, etc.). Briefly describe, for your instructor, your favorite project
and any lessons learned from it.
- Same criteria as in problem 1, use the opportunity to take exceptional examples and
include them in class feedback. Be sure to get the OK from the students involved, as
some examples are highly personal and amount to the main reason students are in BME
in the first place
4. This is a good time to look at your background in order to determine what areas you will
be qualified to work in. What would you list as your assets in terms of your potential
contribution to a design team?
- The answers to this question may be of value in planning your course and potentially
how you set up your teams…


5. The who/what/where/why/how/when construct is often used in newspaper writing. From
your Sunday newspaper, extract one short news story and one obituary and analyze it for
the above content. Turn in both articles and your commentary to the instructor.
-The answers to this question may prove to be of value to you as an instructor, especially
as the responses should help the students understand the construct of a newspaper article.
Hopefully they will extrapolate this to their work in design.

, Supplemental material - Chapter 1


Early on in the design class I normally requested copies of the monthly “Closing the
Gap” brochure advertising their annual conference. Students were required to read/report
on at least one article or page of the magazine. – The aim being to sensitize the students
to the use of technology (design) to assist in improving the lives of persons with some
form of handicap. A few design projects came out of this exposure over the years…

It may be useful to at least introduce the class to MAUDE given the main example in the
chapter…


On day one of the class I normally queried the class as to their summer experiences, plans
after graduation, etc. This normally proved to be a good iceg=breaker and on occasion
allowed suggestions re design projects resulting from summer work…
