Assistive or Adaptive Bioengineering

Assistive helps you but does not change your bodyIs a short-term help-not permanentExamples: ankle or knee braces, crutches, bandaids, etc.List 3 other examples on your paper

Adaptive helps you and your body is changedOften involves surgeryIs a long-term help, often permanentExamples: artificial heart, Cochlear ear implant, spinal fusion List 3 other examples on your paper
