3D Printing in Healthcare Market Trends:
On February 2018, Johnson&Johnson’s has announced the launch of a Global Centre of Excellence for 3D bioprinting at the Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. This new facility which is a collaboration between Johnson & Jonhson's and AMBER research will serve as a 3D bioprinting research laboratory. It is expected to be operational before the beginning of 2019, the facility will also conduct research in the field of orthopaedics and is expected to transform the delivery of healthcare services for patients and consumers.
Engineers from Pohang University of Science and Technology, South Korea have successfully developed “bio-blood-vessels” from a 3D printer using material extracted from the human body as a template. These blood vessels are also capable of acting as drug carriers that will release the drug into its inserted surroundings thereby increasing the likelihood of a successful implant.
Spanish Scientists from the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain, Center for Energy, Environmental and Technological Research (CIEMAT), Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón, in collaboration with the firm BioDan Group, Spain, have presented a prototype for a 3D bioprinter that can create totally functional human skin. This skin is adequate for transplanting to patients or for use in research or the testing of cosmetic, chemical, and pharmaceutical products.
In August 2016, the FDA approved an epilepsy drug called Spritam that is made by 3D printers. It prints out the powdered drug layer by layer to make it dissolve faster than average pills. It is reported that scientists from University College of London have discovered a new way of printing drugs for children. The scientists are designing pills in the shape of octopuses, dinosaurs or cartoon characters so that it will be easier for kids to take pills.
