Biomechanical finite element and preliminary in vivo validation analyses of intra-abdominal pressure and the impact of stabilizing garments in proximity to the spine

诱发和加重腹部疝的压力是未知的。在腹部造口后，通常在结肠造口术后，患者会佩戴医用腰带或定制服装。尽管存在这个带，它提供了施加局部压迫的机会，疝还是经常发生。该项目旨在利用计算机建模的专业知识和脊柱周围生理压力的知识，以便更好地了解阻止疝发生的方法。通过精确的生物力学模型对**腹部区域进行虚拟模拟，并探讨该区域**疝所涉及的压力。随后，CDRM**公司模拟了医疗器械的存在。将执行气孔压缩带，以客观地探讨是否可以更好地优化以防止疝气的发生。商业合作伙伴将寻求利用这些信息，以便根据项目发现更好地**生产他们的产品。

The pressures that induce and worsen hernia in the abdominal region are unknown. After an abdominal stoma**occurs, which is a void in abdomen, often after a colostomy, a medical belt or custom garment is worn by the**patient. Despite the presence of this belt, which offers the opportunity to impose a local compression, hernias**often occur. This project seeks to leverage expertise in in silico modeling and knowledge of the physiological**pressures that surround our spine's in order to better understand methods to deter hernia occurrence. The**abdominal region will be virtually simulated with accurate biomechanical models and the pressures involved in**herniation in this region will be explored. Thereafter, the simulated presence of the medical device, CDRM**Inc. stoma compression belt, will be executed to objectively explore if it may be better optimized to deter**hernias from occurring. The commercial partner will seek to utilize this information to potentially better**manufacture their products based on the project findings.
