so I know you all must be tired long day right so let me start with a case study
right so let me start with a case study
right so let me start with a case study first of all I’m not a professor I’m
first of all I’m not a professor I’m
first of all I’m not a professor I’m just an engineer so I’ll try to show you
just an engineer so I’ll try to show you
just an engineer so I’ll try to show you what is the case that we would like to
what is the case that we would like to
what is the case that we would like to how many doctors here just in case okay
how many doctors here just in case okay
how many doctors here just in case okay good ingenious any engineers great any
good ingenious any engineers great any
good ingenious any engineers great any commerce people business fantastic
commerce people business fantastic
commerce people business fantastic that’s great so there’s a case it’s
that’s great so there’s a case it’s
that’s great so there’s a case it’s about a male 35 years old 22 kilometers
about a male 35 years old 22 kilometers
about a male 35 years old 22 kilometers from here he’s had multiple visits to
from here he’s had multiple visits to
from here he’s had multiple visits to hospital he has seen orthopedic surgeon
hospital he has seen orthopedic surgeon
hospital he has seen orthopedic surgeon he has seen oncology surgeon he has seen
he has seen oncology surgeon he has seen
he has seen oncology surgeon he has seen a neurosurgeon there are lot of things
a neurosurgeon there are lot of things
a neurosurgeon there are lot of things he has seen and you can see the heart
he has seen and you can see the heart
he has seen and you can see the heart sound you can hear right so that was
sound you can hear right so that was
sound you can hear right so that was it’s yesterday’s heart sound and that’s
it’s yesterday’s heart sound and that’s
it’s yesterday’s heart sound and that’s just two minutes before we got the heart
just two minutes before we got the heart
just two minutes before we got the heart sound is there a difference yeah doctors
sound is there a difference yeah doctors
sound is there a difference yeah doctors right there’s something wrong right yeah
right there’s something wrong right yeah
right there’s something wrong right yeah so we could do that because it’s just my
so we could do that because it’s just my
so we could do that because it’s just my heart sound and it’s just that I’m being
heart sound and it’s just that I’m being
heart sound and it’s just that I’m being diagnosed that I’m healthy and excited
diagnosed that I’m healthy and excited
diagnosed that I’m healthy and excited so just before coming on stage I was
so just before coming on stage I was
so just before coming on stage I was literally excited and how we got to do
literally excited and how we got to do
literally excited and how we got to do this how did we really get the heart
this how did we really get the heart
this how did we really get the heart sound of a person recorded or how do we
sound of a person recorded or how do we
sound of a person recorded or how do we transmit it and how then how can we all
transmit it and how then how can we all
transmit it and how then how can we all hear that I’ll come to that story but
hear that I’ll come to that story but
hear that I’ll come to that story but let’s go step by step so I’ll just end
let’s go step by step so I’ll just end
let’s go step by step so I’ll just end the sounds here so I’m literally
the sounds here so I’m literally
the sounds here so I’m literally speaking from the bottom of my heart and
speaking from the bottom of my heart and
speaking from the bottom of my heart and you could see that so right so how many
you could see that so right so how many
you could see that so right so how many of us think we are creative anybody
of us think we are creative anybody
of us think we are creative anybody maybe okay three four hands right how
maybe okay three four hands right how
maybe okay three four hands right how many of world born creative okay
so you’ve seen that right so
so you’ve seen that right so Michelangelo he was a creative person
Michelangelo he was a creative person
Michelangelo he was a creative person he’s an artist who started with Anna
he’s an artist who started with Anna
he’s an artist who started with Anna Thomas we have Leonardo da Vinci who was
Thomas we have Leonardo da Vinci who was
Thomas we have Leonardo da Vinci who was also an artist but also an engineer so
also an artist but also an engineer so
also an artist but also an engineer so the common thing between these two was
the common thing between these two was
the common thing between these two was creativity so there were artists but
creativity so there were artists but
creativity so there were artists but they were creative people so even if
they were creative people so even if
they were creative people so even if they were artists they were still
they were artists they were still
they were artists they were still exploring different domains different
exploring different domains different
exploring different domains different disciplines and they were trying to come
disciplines and they were trying to come
disciplines and they were trying to come up with different ideas so Michelangelo
up with different ideas so Michelangelo
up with different ideas so Michelangelo actually dissected people as in bodies
actually dissected people as in bodies
actually dissected people as in bodies to understand anatomy much better and

to understand anatomy much better and his drawings are still used in anatomic
his drawings are still used in anatomic
his drawings are still used in anatomic classes and there’s a museum about it
classes and there’s a museum about it
classes and there’s a museum about it Mike as in not just Michelangelo
Mike as in not just Michelangelo
Mike as in not just Michelangelo Leonardo Vinci you can hear and you can
Leonardo Vinci you can hear and you can
Leonardo Vinci you can hear and you can see a lot of innovations that he has
see a lot of innovations that he has
see a lot of innovations that he has done all the flights that he has
done all the flights that he has
done all the flights that he has designed hydraulics machines and by
designed hydraulics machines and by
designed hydraulics machines and by qualification by the way he was an
qualification by the way he was an
qualification by the way he was an artist so he has a lot of contributions
artist so he has a lot of contributions
artist so he has a lot of contributions in terms of engineering and although the
in terms of engineering and although the
in terms of engineering and although the background is still artists so if you
background is still artists so if you
background is still artists so if you see there is some common element which
see there is some common element which
see there is some common element which is creativity and hardly I could see any
is creativity and hardly I could see any
is creativity and hardly I could see any hands up but as kids did you really
hands up but as kids did you really
hands up but as kids did you really create different games did you play role
create different games did you play role
create different games did you play role plays different games did you imagine
plays different games did you imagine
plays different games did you imagine things did you have your own two wheeler
things did you have your own two wheeler
things did you have your own two wheeler boom right so that was creativity right
boom right so that was creativity right
boom right so that was creativity right so what happened where did that get
so what happened where did that get
so what happened where did that get killed something happened right we’ll
killed something happened right we’ll
killed something happened right we’ll come to that but we all are say Indian
come to that but we all are say Indian
come to that but we all are say Indian talent right we all know regard Indian
talent right we all know regard Indian
talent right we all know regard Indian talent so we are all supposed to be
talent so we are all supposed to be
talent so we are all supposed to be creative so yeah that’s beautiful but
creative so yeah that’s beautiful but
creative so yeah that’s beautiful but there’s one problem here that we cannot
there’s one problem here that we cannot
there’s one problem here that we cannot always shave like that we cannot always
always shave like that we cannot always
always shave like that we cannot always boil milk like that nor can we always
boil milk like that nor can we always
boil milk like that nor can we always make a coffee like that so the problem
make a coffee like that so the problem
make a coffee like that so the problem is that this is not scalable this is not
is that this is not scalable this is not
is that this is not scalable this is not sustainable so if you do have talent we
sustainable so if you do have talent we
sustainable so if you do have talent we all were creative somewhere down the
all were creative somewhere down the
all were creative somewhere down the line earlier but somewhere up when we
line earlier but somewhere up when we

when he was in 12th a very senior doctor
when he was in 12th a very senior doctor was head of the laparoscopic Society he
was head of the laparoscopic Society he
was head of the laparoscopic Society he actually said that I really need to
actually said that I really need to
actually said that I really need to solve this problem because it I am tired
solve this problem because it I am tired
solve this problem because it I am tired of training people of how to do correct
of training people of how to do correct
of training people of how to do correct suturing and the current devices are
suturing and the current devices are
suturing and the current devices are having problem so he came to us and dr.
having problem so he came to us and dr.
having problem so he came to us and dr. Suresh this point explained the problem
Suresh this point explained the problem
Suresh this point explained the problem so there’s a young engineer who is there
so there’s a young engineer who is there
so there’s a young engineer who is there on the right corner and he took it as a
on the right corner and he took it as a
on the right corner and he took it as a challenge and then he came up with
challenge and then he came up with
challenge and then he came up with different mechanisms to solve the
different mechanisms to solve the
different mechanisms to solve the problem and I will try and see if I can
problem and I will try and see if I can
problem and I will try and see if I can see the video is working here yeah so
see the video is working here yeah so
see the video is working here yeah so maybe that spa’s but what we came up was
maybe that spa’s but what we came up was
maybe that spa’s but what we came up was a device instead of the long ends which
a device instead of the long ends which
a device instead of the long ends which are grasping we actually gave a multi
are grasping we actually gave a multi
are grasping we actually gave a multi degree of freedom to that so the whole
degree of freedom to that so the whole
degree of freedom to that so the whole device had a wrist inside the patient’s
device had a wrist inside the patient’s
device had a wrist inside the patient’s body so it could do multiple degrees of
body so it could do multiple degrees of
body so it could do multiple degrees of freedom and it can rotate the third
freedom and it can rotate the third
freedom and it can rotate the third story that I would like to share here is
story that I would like to share here is
story that I would like to share here is that’s the first one of the first
that’s the first one of the first
that’s the first one of the first sockets which was given to amputees so
sockets which was given to amputees so
sockets which was given to amputees so once you have an amputation either
once you have an amputation either
once you have an amputation either prosthesis is given process is just a
prosthesis is given process is just a
prosthesis is given process is just a functional leg that is given to support
functional leg that is given to support
functional leg that is given to support and maybe you can walk so you must have

seen pirates right they have that wooden log the stake which is just put on and
log the stake which is just put on and
log the stake which is just put on and they keep on walking we were surprised
they keep on walking we were surprised
they keep on walking we were surprised to realize that the leg which is still
to realize that the leg which is still
to realize that the leg which is still used by most of the amputees in India is
used by most of the amputees in India is
used by most of the amputees in India is still very much similar where you have a
still very much similar where you have a
still very much similar where you have a socket which fits to the patient and
socket which fits to the patient and
socket which fits to the patient and there is almost a hinge joint and that’s
there is almost a hinge joint and that’s
there is almost a hinge joint and that’s it a Jaipur foot which was a brilliant
it a Jaipur foot which was a brilliant
it a Jaipur foot which was a brilliant innovation

innovation but once the patient comes to Mumbai to
but once the patient comes to Mumbai to
but once the patient comes to Mumbai to get this leg say Mahalakshmi there is a
get this leg say Mahalakshmi there is a
get this leg say Mahalakshmi there is a center where you can get such a leg the
center where you can get such a leg the
center where you can get such a leg the amputee comes to that then he has to
amputee comes to that then he has to
amputee comes to that then he has to wait almost eight hours because
wait almost eight hours because
wait almost eight hours because plaster-of-paris is put the socket is
plaster-of-paris is put the socket is
plaster-of-paris is put the socket is the mold is made then again that is to
the mold is made then again that is to
the mold is made then again that is to be poured in plaster of Paris the
be poured in plaster of Paris the
be poured in plaster of Paris the negative is made then again a SDP pipe
negative is made then again a SDP pipe
negative is made then again a SDP pipe is worn you put on it then it is filed
is worn you put on it then it is filed
is worn you put on it then it is filed finished and all this process takes
finished and all this process takes
finished and all this process takes almost eight hours
almost eight hours
almost eight hours now if the amputee or the patient has
now if the amputee or the patient has
now if the amputee or the patient has come early morning he can walk back the
come early morning he can walk back the
come early morning he can walk back the same day in case he comes at twelve
same day in case he comes at twelve
same day in case he comes at twelve o’clock in the afternoon he has to wait
o’clock in the afternoon he has to wait
o’clock in the afternoon he has to wait all the way overnight to get his leg the
all the way overnight to get his leg the
all the way overnight to get his leg the next day now what is the average cost
next day now what is the average cost
next day now what is the average cost for staying overnight in Mumbai so
for staying overnight in Mumbai so
for staying overnight in Mumbai so that’s that’s huge right and if you are
that’s that’s huge right and if you are
that’s that’s huge right and if you are coming with your families and support
coming with your families and support
coming with your families and support and you’re actually losing your daily
and you’re actually losing your daily
and you’re actually losing your daily wage there’s a huge cause so what we
wage there’s a huge cause so what we
wage there’s a huge cause so what we tried here there’s again there’s a
tried here there’s again there’s a
tried here there’s again there’s a beautiful team which came up and the
beautiful team which came up and the
beautiful team which came up and the team had a doctor you can see yeah
team had a doctor you can see yeah
team had a doctor you can see yeah there’s a doctor physiotherapist on the
there’s a doctor physiotherapist on the
there’s a doctor physiotherapist on the left-hand side there’s a engineer on the
left-hand side there’s a engineer on the
left-hand side there’s a engineer on the right-hand side and this all worked out
right-hand side and this all worked out
right-hand side and this all worked out they tried to see if the time can be
they tried to see if the time can be
they tried to see if the time can be reduced to make the same socket so
reduced to make the same socket so
reduced to make the same socket so instead of actually making a plaster of
instead of actually making a plaster of
instead of actually making a plaster of Paris
Paris
Paris mold what they did was they took some
mold what they did was they took some
mold what they did was they took some photos now if you take photos instead of
photos now if you take photos instead of
photos now if you take photos instead of the patient traveling from that long
the patient traveling from that long
the patient traveling from that long part or the rural area only the data or
part or the rural area only the data or
part or the rural area only the data or the information travels it goes to cloud
the information travels it goes to cloud
the information travels it goes to cloud and it a 3d model of the patient can be
and it a 3d model of the patient can be
and it a 3d model of the patient can be made here the socket can be made and
made here the socket can be made and
made here the socket can be made and transmitted we even realize further that
transmitted we even realize further that
transmitted we even realize further that there’s even bigger problem with
there’s even bigger problem with
there’s even bigger problem with all-zero and 3G and everything it’s
all-zero and 3G and everything it’s
all-zero and 3G and everything it’s still difficult to upload images from a
still difficult to upload images from a
still difficult to upload images from a rural area so the engineers again has on
rural area so the engineers again has on
rural area so the engineers again has on the right hand side guy he said no I
the right hand side guy he said no I
the right hand side guy he said no I cannot have that much data transmitted
cannot have that much data transmitted
cannot have that much data transmitted so even work further and he came down to
so even work further and he came down to
so even work further and he came down to a parametric model or equation where you
a parametric model or equation where you
a parametric model or equation where you just take few measurements of the
just take few measurements of the
just take few measurements of the patient you SMS them and a 3d model of
patient you SMS them and a 3d model of
patient you SMS them and a 3d model of the patient is created here and that can
the patient is created here and that can
the patient is created here and that can be 3d printed and if you can just see if
be 3d printed and if you can just see if
be 3d printed and if you can just see if that video can be played
yes so if you see the leg over there at
yes so if you see the leg over there at the bottom side it is a 3d printer one
the bottom side it is a 3d printer one
the bottom side it is a 3d printer one of the first 3d printed sockets which
of the first 3d printed sockets which
of the first 3d printed sockets which was fitting to the patient the patient
was fitting to the patient the patient
was fitting to the patient the patient is from the man he’s a volunteer who was
is from the man he’s a volunteer who was
is from the man he’s a volunteer who was said that I would like to try this out
said that I would like to try this out
said that I would like to try this out he’s an electrician and he walked there
he’s an electrician and he walked there
he’s an electrician and he walked there so I wish we could see the video but
so I wish we could see the video but
so I wish we could see the video but maybe we’ll do it later on but it was
maybe we’ll do it later on but it was
maybe we’ll do it later on but it was really happy and then we could see the
really happy and then we could see the
really happy and then we could see the satisfaction when the patient could walk
satisfaction when the patient could walk
satisfaction when the patient could walk with his own leg on a different ground
with his own leg on a different ground
with his own leg on a different ground and there was a knee which was fitted to
and there was a knee which was fitted to
and there was a knee which was fitted to him which was developed in IIT Madras so
him which was developed in IIT Madras so
him which was developed in IIT Madras so the whole time for this now has been
the whole time for this now has been
the whole time for this now has been reduced to few hours so the patient
reduced to few hours so the patient
reduced to few hours so the patient doesn’t matter what time he comes he
doesn’t matter what time he comes he
doesn’t matter what time he comes he still gets it and plaster of Paris has
still gets it and plaster of Paris has
still gets it and plaster of Paris has been eliminated which is not
been eliminated which is not
been eliminated which is not environment-friendly
environment-friendly
environment-friendly so we’re trying to give the whole leg we

we came up in case you missed something
we came up in case you missed something this is the slide you can have a look so
this is the slide you can have a look so
this is the slide you can have a look so we came up with a different process of
we came up with a different process of
we came up with a different process of developing innovative medical devices
developing innovative medical devices
developing innovative medical devices and that process can be divided into
and that process can be divided into
and that process can be divided into four DS define develop deliver and

then we deliver it by testing it
then we deliver it by testing it rigorous testing to say that this is
rigorous testing to say that this is
rigorous testing to say that this is going to be a very good device which can
going to be a very good device which can

in all I’d like to conclude saying that
in all I’d like to conclude saying that the only two major things when you see
the only two major things when you see
the only two major things when you see this happiness of having medical devices
this happiness of having medical devices
this happiness of having medical devices being used by various patients in last
being used by various patients in last
being used by various patients in last few years so I am glad that I took that
few years so I am glad that I took that
few years so I am glad that I took that detour I’m glad that I walked away from
detour I’m glad that I walked away from
detour I’m glad that I walked away from what everybody was trying to do so there
what everybody was trying to do so there
what everybody was trying to do so there only two key messages if I can if I can
only two key messages if I can if I can
only two key messages if I can if I can share my learnings is that leave it
share my learnings is that leave it
share my learnings is that leave it better than what you found and ask for
