3Fold

01_DPS23_Product_3FOLD_05

The research project at ZhdK, «3Fold», resulted in a foldable surgical tool designed to prevent complications after pacemaker insertion. The main cause of such complications is often scar tissue surrounding the implant. Hylomate, a gelatin degradable for «3Fold», prevents this scarring. The soft and foldable surgical tool can be applied easily and contactless, resulting in saving up to 10 minutes time of these routine operations. The project thus illustrates how design can add value, generate efficiency and improve patients' quality of life with clever means and even in technically demanding areas.
