Non-Obstructive Cerebral Shunt
TS-005569 — This novel cerebral shunt device is designed to treat hydrocephalus using an improved continuous drainage of cerebrospinal fluid and preventing blockages. Constructed from flexible, biocompatible materials, the design includes features for aspiration, anchoring, and modular valve control to enhance reliability and safety. This device is able to reverse flow or apply pressure to clear obstructions using an inner and outer tube system with a built-in pump unit.

Endovascular Implant for Brain Aneurysm
TS-005535 — This new method for treating brain aneurysms addresses the complications from clipping and coiling approaches by offering a minimally invasive, implantable device. Clipping carries risks of infection, brain injury, stroke, seizures, rebleeding, and cognitive changes. Coiling has risks of catheter complications, coil migration, thrombosis, aneurysm regrowth, stroke,and rupture during the procedure. Decisions between these two treatments depend on the aneurysm’s characteristics and the patient's health. This new method bipasses both of these possible risks.

Brain Tonometer for Detection of Epileptogenic Brain Tissue
TS-004619 — A medical device to assess tissue stiffness in the brain, particularly in epileptogenic brain tissue.
Tonometers, originally designed exclusively to measure intraocular pressure, can be used to assess tissue stiffness in epileptogenic brain tissue; however, the current technology has the significant limitation of requiring a perpendicular angle for accurate assessment and the tactile point/ tip is n…

Ostomy Leakage Alarm System
TS-004601 — A medical device used to detect a leak in an ostomy pouch and alert the user of the leak. This device would be implantable/ attached to the ostomy pouch and detect leaks via the presence of oxygen. Upon detection of the leak, the device would emit an alarm, or notify the user through their mobile phone such that they can replace the pouch in a timely manner.
Ostomy pouches are artificial pouches that attach to individuals with a stoma (ostomates) to collect fully digested fecal material. The pouches are anaerobic inside, thus devoid of oxygen. Oxygen is introduced to the inside environment of the pouch in event of a leak or detachment of the pouch from …
