Studies of cases tracing back to the 1980s have demonstrated how devices improved on localizing concentration of a drug, eliminating side effects which are often brought on by conventional systemic means such as infusion or oral delivery. However, drugs alone cannot directly affect mechanical diseases such as stabilizing fractured bone. Devices may treat diseases by affecting electrical, mechanical, and transport processes in the patients, but often cause side effects that are related to inflammation, proliferation, and remodelling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith chronic disorders such as heart disease, kidney disease, diabetes, and neurological degeneration still on the rise, discovery and development of new drugs and devices have lagged.
