dc.description.abstractAccording to the World Health Organization, lymphedema affects over 250 million people worldwide. Despite this fact, the research evaluating the lymphatic system and the effectiveness of treatment has been scarce. The unfortunate result is that far too many patients are left undiagnosed and untreated and therefore have pain and suffer unnecessarily. The symptoms of lymphedema can be managed, however, with manual or mechanical lymphatic drainage. Lymphatica, a Swiss start-up, is developping the first implantable device for body fluid transfer based on a peristaltic pump magnetically coupled with a wearable controller device developed by CSEM.
