Murata Manufacturing has launched its latest whitepaper, “Evolving Healthcare Technology: Murata’s Role in Advancing Wellness Technology.” The paper provides insights into the Wellness and Healthcare environment, sharing how Murata’s components can support engineers in meeting challenging goals, continuing to innovate, and driving electronic-based wellness products in this space.
As wellness technologies become increasingly intelligent, wearable, and personalized, engineers face growing pressure to deliver compact, efficient, and interconnected systems. The whitepaper explores the heightened need for miniaturization, focusing on the development of smaller, lighter, and more seamlessly integrated devices that can reduce patient discomfort and enhance clinical effectiveness. It also examines the rise of medical connectivity, a critical consideration in light of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and the increasing demand for continuously connected, energy-efficient devices.
The paper further considers key trends in personalized and precision medicine, highlighting the growing importance of tailored diagnostics alongside increasing expectations for sustainability. It investigates how engineers can improve device longevity while reducing cost and environmental impact through more energy-efficient design.
Available now via the Murata website, the whitepaper presents a range of component solutions designed to address these challenges:
- CELLNETTA is the world’s first metal cell fractionation filter designed to rapidly and accurately select and recover target cells from cell suspensions. Target applications include fractionation, concentration, and filtration in the development of regenerative medicine technologies or cellular pharmaceuticals.
- NeuroStoneTM is a cutting-edge 3D-printed, interconnected ceramic technology that enables miniaturized, thermally efficient circuit assemblies. Suitable for space-constrained applications, such as implantable devices and endoscopic tools, it supports compact system design without compromising reliability.
- Microblowers are compact and lightweight air pumps capable of delivering high pressure and flow rates with minimal noise. Their precise, steady airflow makes them ideal for use in ventilators, infusion pumps, and systems requiring high-accuracy drug administration.
- Stretchable Printed Circuits (SPCs) reflect the drive toward personalized, connected healthcare. These flexible, skin-conformable circuits enable real-time bio-signal monitoring and are particularly well suited to next-generation wearable devices.
- RFID Solutions support precision medicine by enabling device-level serialisation, secure pairing, and full traceability of medications and components. These features are essential for patient-specific therapies and safer, more transparent medical workflows.
- Ultra-low power Connectivity Modules form the backbone of seamless medical communication across IoMT systems. Offering robust wireless performance with extremely low energy consumption, they allow battery-powered wellness devices to operate reliably over long durations.
Murata remains committed to supporting engineers and product developers as they navigate the sector’s fast-evolving demands. By aligning component innovation with industry megatrends, the company aims to empower its partners to deliver wellness technologies that are compact, connected, sustainable, and ultimately focused on better patient outcomes.
