Engineers, Scientists, and Technologists paly significant role for the national progress. In the Engineering disciplines, the Biomedical Engineering discipline has the significance of applying the fundamentals of engineering principles to improve the practice of medicine. All faculties of the Hamdard University are linked to this engineering discipline. In final year of the Bachelor of Engineering (Biomedical), the students undertook their final year project that has two parts to complete in a year time of their studies. This is an extensive group based activity spans all the program learning objectives in the outcome based education system. The policies and procedures are well defined for all components of the final year project. Students may refer to the final year project coordinator for details and consult at any stage of the project.

List of Final Year Projects with Tentative Short Description  

Project 1 (Medical AI Devices). Design and Implementation of Artificial Intelligence based Vital Signs Monitoring System

Description: Vital signs monitors are used to periodically measure basic physiologic parameters, called vitals, such as noninvasive blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse rate, and temperature. These monitors are typically used in low-acuity areas, such as surgical and medical floors, clinics, and emergency department triage, to track the status of multiple low-acuity patients. In the current healthcare environment, there is an increasing focus on automated documentation including electronic transfer of data from the vital signs monitor to the hospital’s electronic medical record system, in an effort to reduce some of the potential for errors resulting from manual documentation of patient data. This final year project design an artificial intelligence based vital sign monitoring system and implements the design in the form of a practical application prototype. The outcome of the project is in the form of a medical artificial intelligence device capable of sending the vital signs to the emergency services and record in the hospital medical database system.

Project 2 (GPU based). Design and Implementation of Medical Artificial Intelligence Compute Engine

Description: This final year project designs a compute engine for the medical artificial intelligence for automating the clinical settings. Enabling AI to learn professional medical knowledge, to memorize loads of health records, and to analyze medical images with computer vision, so as to provide doctors with reliable and efficient assistance. For example, for the medical imaging widely used today, AI can build models based on historical data to analyze the medical images and quickly detect the lesions, thus improving the efficiency of consultation. The outcome of this project is in the form of an implementation of the design aka smart healthcare component for the smart city.  

Project 3 (Extensive-Efforts). Design and Implementation of 4D Synthetic Human Pulse Generator

Description: This final year project designs a four dimensional synthetic human pulse generator and implements the design in the form of a software based solution. The physical parameters related to a complete cardiac cycle are mathematically modeled and the 3D shape of various stages are recorded to generate 4D synthetic human pulse. This final year project is an important step towards a visionary future generation solution to understand the variability in the cardiac cycle transition and help establish or verify the overlapping or disconnect starting and ending of the cardiac cycle.

Project 4 (Research-Oriented). Biomedical Engineering Service Architecture towards Health Industry 5.0

Description: This final year project creates an architecture for the biomedical engineering service for health industry 5.0. The functions of the medical devices and coordination in the form of useful information exchanges between these are graphically represented. The main focus of this final year project is to use the designed architecture to prepare essential basic workflows to support the future delivery of automated medical service.

PhD Faculty Meetup 5 Department of Biomedical Engineering

Wednesday 18 January 2023

The meeting was started with recitation and welcome by Prof. Dr. Tariq Javid, Chairperson, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Science & Technology, Hamdard University. The agenda points are: (1) Review of last meeting minutes, and (2) research goals 2023 for PhD faculty members. All members show satisfaction on the last meeting minutes. A detailed discussion on agenda point (2) was held after a brief review of each item in the research goals for the PhD faculty. As the document has to undergo a revision by the Dean FEST; therefore, it was agreed that each member will finalize these in consultation with the dept. Chair. The meeting was ended with a vote of thanks by the Chair to the participants.
