Student Learning Outcomes: |
* Student in the course:
- Can identify, define, and solve problems
Please explain briefly how this outcome will be addressed in the course. Give brief examples of class work related to the outcome. This course will expose students to the design of cardiovascular devices by experts from local medical technology companies. Lectures will be structured so students understand the clinical need, the generic design (emphasizing use of engineering principles), typical testing and validation methods, and major limitations of the available devices (to stimulate thought on research opportunities) on a different cardiovascular device each week. Upon completion of this course, students should be able to understand the design, analysis, and testing of these and related devices. They will have opportunities to apply and reinforce engineering principles learned in prior courses. In particular, students will be required to complete a report on the design and testing of a cardiovascular device. How will you assess the students' learning related to this outcome? Give brief examples of how class work related to the outcome will be evaluated. Students will be required to complete a written report on the design and testing of a cardiovascular device, worth 70% of the overall course grade. | |

KenKnight, PhD E-mail: kenknight.bruce@gmail.com Grading Assistant: Jared Hierman E-mail: hierm001.edu Course Format: 1 lecture per week Course Credit: 1 Credit ABET Students Outcomes: You should develop (g) an ability to communicate effectively (from writing your report) and (j) a knowledge of contemporary issues (from our speakers). Important Dates: Apr 7: Prospectus Draft Submission Due Date Apr 28: Report Submission Due Date Course Grading (A through F): • Participation (30%) • Report on design and testing of a cardiovascular device (70%) • Attendance Policy:100% attendance is required for a passing grade, as documented by sign-in each week, except for excused absence due to documented medical reasons, personal emergency, or extraordinary circumstances approved by the instructor. Unexcused absences include not signing-in even if you were present. As a courtesy to our invited speakers, you must be seated by 2:30 and stay with rapt attention until the instructor adjourns the class - students who arrive after 2:30, or leave the classroom before the end of the end of class without pre-approval by the instructor, or do something besides listen to the speaker (texting, doing homework, reading the Daily, etc.) may have their attendance credit cancelled. An I (Incomplete) is assigned if 100% attendance (including make-ups) is not attained by the end of classes; when make-ups for all remaining unexcused absences are completed, the I will be converted to the report grade. Note that by University policy, an I converts to an F automatically one year of the last day of final examinations of the term in which the I was given. • Attendance Records: Our records are posted on UMN Moodle 2.0 – consult the Instructor about any discrepancies. You can access the Moodle site from http://www.myu.umn.eduunder the My Courses tab. • Class Make-up Procedure: Unexcused absences can be made up by attending a BMEN 8602 Graduate Seminar (held 3:30-4:30 Mondays and some Wednesdays in 2-101 NHH – check the schedule at http://bme.umn.edu/news/seminar.html), writing 1 page describing what you thought was the most interesting technical aspect of the presentation, and why (don’t write a summary!), and emailing it to the Instructor by the class meeting of 5920 that follows the date of the seminar or it will not be accepted (note: you do not need to attend the first 8602 seminar that takes place after the missed class!). • Extra Credit Policy: To encourage your participation, the Instructor will have the prerogative to select one or more particularly insightful questions related to design considerations or testing for their device as “extra credit” – those students will have their report grade increased by one increment (e.g. B+ to A-); a student can earn more than one increment during the semester. Submit your question by email (kenknight.bruce@gmail.com) within 24 hours following the class session. • Class will be adjourned when the speaker has been thanked – please remain seated until class has been formally adjourned by TA or Course Coordinator. • Grade Basis: Passing grades will be decided entirely upon a report. The report must be on a specific, high impact biomedical device different from what you reported on in BMEn 1601 or 1602, if you have already taken these courses. • Report Format/Requirements: - Exactly 4-5 pages (11 pt Times font, 1.5 line spacing, 1” margins, not including references and figures; note you may simply reference figures in the key reference attached to your report) - About 2 pages should be used to describe the device, and 2 pages to explain what you consider to be the key technical design consideration – make sure you explicitly describe this point. - The report should demonstrate understanding of the device, it’s technical aspects and clinical evidence supporting safety and efficacy. Please use your best writing skills; poor writing style, including misspelling, will adversely affect the grade; use resources like http://composition.cla.umn.edu/ as necessary. - Cite at least 4 references, 3 of which are journal publications, 1 of which (the key reference), must be attached to your prospectus. Note: not all references are “high quality references.” Be mindful of the significance of various journals by investigating their Impact Factor. - You must highlight the text in your key reference, when you reference it in your report, so it will be obvious why it is your key reference (i.e. highlighting will show us where and why you made reference to it). - The approved prospectus (see below) must be bound to your report if you pick it up after its review and approval, using a binder clip to secure it to your report. • Key Reference: It must be a technical, not a “clinical study”, original research article published in a peer-reviewed journal. A technical research article reports a study performed in a controlled setting, usually in an animal model or some sort of laboratory setting, generally not in human patients. Clinical studies take a device or therapy that as already been developed and reports its safety and efficacy in human patients. It should be obvious when an article presents original research results. Note that if your reference is classified as a "Review" article, then it is definitely not an original research report. • Plagiarism: You should make explicit use of your references in the text, wherever appropriate, so there is no chance that your report would be cited for plagiarism, which will result in an F for the course. For example: “Providing directional information to regenerating axons should be a powerful strategy for improving peripheral nerve regeneration (Dubey et al, 1999).” See http://writing.umn.edu/tww/plagiarism/ and / or http://ori.dhhs.gov/education/products/plagiarism/ if you have any questions about what constitutes plagiarism and how to ensure you avoid it. While sparing use of ver batim text (i.e. cut and paste) if quotations are used and with citation is acceptable, excessive use (more than 5% of your text) will reduce the grade assigned (even though appropriately referenced) -- you should synthesize your sources into your own original exposition (which will also generally require frequent citations!). Minor editing of cut and pasted text from multiple sources that is strung together might be determined as plagiarism and at best will result in a lower grade for not should synthesizing your sources into your own original exposition. Plagiarism will result in an F for the report grade and F for the course grade, and reporting to the Office of Student Conduct and Academic Integrity. Obviously, your report must contain at least one reference to your key reference that makes it crystal clear why you chose it as the key reference. • Report Topic Advice: Select a cardiovascular device that was not presented by a speaker during the course lectures. Ideas for topics may be generated from perusing www.bmes.org, grants.nih.gov/grants/becon/becon.htm, medical device company websites, and/or journals (e.g. Journal of Medical Devices, Medical Devices & Surgical Technology Week) via the MEDLINE (OVID) database accessible via http://www.lib.umn.edu/ or a similar search engine. Downloadable PDFs of many recent journal publications (as well as on-line access to many journals) can be had via http://tc.liblink.umn.edu/sfx_local/azlist/default. You may use any resource (e.g. Google Scholar: http://scholar.google.com/) to identify journal references. • Prospectus Definition and Due Date: A 100 word prospectus of the report (from http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/prospectus: prospectus is “something, such as a statement or situation, that forecasts the course or nature of something”; in our case, how it will meet the report requirements regarding impact and technical aspects as supported by the key reference) along with the at least 4 references listed, a copy of the key journal paper, and a printout from the journal website showing it is a peer-reviewed journal, bound together with a binder clip, is due in class on April 7. (These will be reviewed for suitability with students being promptly notified of any problems via email (please include your email in prospectus) if submitted before the deadline or via the Moodle site for those submitting on the deadline.) • Report Submission and Due Date: - The report is due at the start of class on Apr 28th, including your complete prospectus if you picked it up following its review/approval. Late reports will not be accepted without a documented medical reason, personal emergency or extraordinary circumstance approved by the instructor. - Electronic submission on the due date will also be required. Details will be sent via email just prior to the due date. Late e-submissions will not be accepted.

Strategic Objectives & Consultation | ||
Name of Department Chair Approver: |
Bob Tranquillo | |
Strategic Objectives - Curricular Objectives: |
How does adding this course improve the overall curricular objectives ofthe unit? This unique course, because of the expert speakers from local companies, connects principles to devices and better prepares our students for employment in the medtech industry. |
|
Strategic Objectives - Core Curriculum: |
Does the unit consider this course to be part of its core curriculum? No. |
|
Strategic Objectives - Consultation with Other Units: |
In order to prevent course overlap and to inform other departments of new
curriculum, circulate proposal to chairs in relevant units and follow-up with direct
consultation. Please summarize response from units consulted and include correspondence. By
consultation with other units, the information about a new course is more widely disseminated
and can have a positive impact on enrollments. The consultation can be as simple as an
email to the department chair informing them of the course and asking for any feedback
from the faculty. See below for email consultations with (1) Will Durfee in Mechanical Engineering (CSE); and (2) Michael O'Connor and Melissa Gardner in Genetics, Cell Biology and Development (CBS): --------------------------- (1) - Will Durfee, CSE Rachel, This is an excellent course. It does not overlap with any course in Mechanical Engineering, with any course in CSE, and as far as I know, with any other course at the University. The only related course, which does not represent an overlap, is the week-long cardiovascular physiology course directed by Paul Iaizzo and held in January. Your course is a great complement to that one, and vice-versa. I hope that your course will be publicized within CSE as there are Mechanical Engineering graduate and undergraduate students who would be interested and who would have the equivalents to the listed pre-reqs. Will ----- William Durfee Professor and Director of Design Education Department of Mechanical Engineering University of Minnesota 111 Church St SE, Minneapolis, MN 55455 612-625-0099 wkdurfee@umn.edu --------------------------- (2) - Michael O'Connor and Melissa Gardner, CBS Hello Rachel, Both Melissa and i looked over the syllabus for BME 5920 and we see no overlap with present GCD courses.
