A Dome-Shaped Aerosol Box for Protection During a Pandemic.

With the rise of COVID-19, the use of aerosol boxes when interacting with COVID-19 patients has increased. However, their use has been controversial. We have been involved in the development of a dome-shaped aerosol containment device with negative pressure (DAWN), an aerosol box that can maintain negative pressure inside at all times.

Changes in platelet aggregation during cardiopulmonary bypass: comparison of poly-2-methoxyethylacrylate and heparin as a circuit coating material.

At present, there are various biomaterials that have high biocompatibility. In particular, there are many types of coated circuits in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) systems. However, only a few clinical studies have investigated platelet aggregation caused by these coated circuits.
