A Sleeve Alters the Pressure‐Stretch Curve of a Hyperelastic Balloon to Enable Pre‐Programmed Sequencing

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This article demonstrates that encasing a hyperelastic balloon in an inextensible sleeve greatly increases its burst pressure. This simple mechanical behavior can be used to produce an asymmetric inflation‐deflation sequence for coupled balloons with different thicknesses so they could serve as a soft robot's rear and front anchors when driven from a ...

Loop formation by an aortic occlusion balloon catheter during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA)

Radiology Case Reports, 2019
A 77-year-old man was transferred to our hospital for endoscopically uncontrollable active bleeding from a duodenal ulcer. Soon after his arrival, he became hemodynamically unstable and resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta was ...

Balloon Catheter Sinuplasty in Young Children [PDF]

American Journal of Rhinology & Allergy, 2010
Background Balloon catheter sinuplasty (BCS) for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) was found to be successful in adults. The safety and feasibility of BCS in children has been recently established. The purpose of this study was to study the outcome of this technology in CRS in children.

Low‐Strain Flexible Ink‐Based Sensors Enable Hyperelastic Inflation Perception Via Geometric Patterning for Balloon‐Type Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Integrating proprioceptive capabilities in balloon‐type robots enhances safe human–machine interactions. Traditional pressure estimates are inadequate due to nonlinear relationships. Instead, embedding stretchable sensors effectively measures deformation. This design optimizes sensor geometry to minimize damage risks.

Unusual Complication of Suprapubic Cystostomy in a Male Patient with Tetraplegia: Traction on Foley Catheter Leading to Extrusion of Foley Balloon from Urinary Bladder and Suprapubic Urinary Fistula – Importance of Securely Anchoring Suprapubic Catheter with Adhesive Tape or BioDerm Tube Holder

The Scientific World Journal, 2007
Suprapubic cystostomy is recommended to patients with neuropathic bladder to prevent complications of long-term urethral catheter drainage. We present a 50-year-old male patient with tetraplegia who had long-term urethral catheter drainage.

Double-Balloon Enteroscopy to Remove a Strangulated Enteroclysis Catheter from the Small Bowel

Case Reports in Gastroenterology, 2008
We present the case of a 77-year-old male who was referred for magnetic resonance (MR) enteroclysis because of small bowel subobstruction. To optimise small bowel distention during MR, a nasojejunal balloon catheter was placed to perfuse iso-osmotic ...
