MedTech: Orthopaedic Implants and Regenerative Medicine

Course syllabus and learning outcomes


Course syllabus:
Week 1:
• What are the possible medical treatments for joint degeneration?
• Which joints can be replaced and how?
• The materials used for orthopaedic joints and how we ensure they are bio-compatible.
• The production and testing process for an artificial joint replacement.

Week 2:
• What is regenerative medicine and how does it work?
• How are biological scaffolds produced and what materials are they made from?
• Requirements for testing biological scaffolds and regulations which need to be followed.
• The future of regenerative medicine and technology.

Learning outcomes:
• Identify the materials used to create implants, their qualities and rationale for their use.
• Describe the manufacturing process of regenerative bio-materials and orthopaedic implants.
• Explore the regulatory frameworks and bodies who oversee this area of MedTech
• Evaluate the merits and challenges in the use of regenerative tissue against the use of
orthopaedic implants.
• Describe how regenerative tissue technologies could impact on anticipated future demands for
improved healthcare.
