Medical MEMS – An innovative approach to medical care

Micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS) is an innovative technology used to make miniaturized mechanical and electro-mechanical elements that are employed in medical devices through microfabrication techniques. Basic elements of MEMS comprise miniaturized structures, actuators, sensors, and microelectronics. The MEMS technology uses concepts of biology and microelectronics to improve patient monitoring. MEMS technology helps in fast and accurate diagnosis of diseases due to microchip technology. Rampant research and development in the MEMS technology has led to the development of innovative products by medical technology companies. For instance, in June 2017, Omron Electronic Components BV, upgraded its MEMS thermal sensing technology. With this technology, it introduced new Omron D6T-1A-02, a super sensitive infra-red temperature sensor. Furthermore, increasing demand for portable and miniaturized devices by healthcare professionals has influenced medical device companies to embed MEMS sensors in medical devices. MEMS technology is integrated in medical devices used in home-care settings, thus increasing preference for these devices among patients.

Furthermore, the amalgamation of nanotechnology with MEMS has led to the development of numerous applications such as biochips, polymerase chain reaction, electroporation, ELISA, electrophoresis, micro-machined scanning tunneling microscopes, and micro systems for drug screening and selection.
