Coil embolization of a celiac artery pseudoaneurysm under balloon-assisted flow control: A case report

Radiology Case Reports
Coil migration can occur when coil embolization is used for treating pseudoaneurysms associated with large arteries. The double microcatheter technique is useful for preventing coil migration; the balloon catheter can reduce blood flow and active ...

A New Technique for the Endoscopic Reconstruction of Skull Base Defects Using Multiple-balloon Catheters

Neurologia Medico-Chirurgica, 2022
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is a major complication following endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery. Various skull base reconstruction methods are available, and the use of a vascularized nasoseptal flap (NSF) in skull base reconstruction has ...

Percutaneous Epidural Adhesiolysis Using Inflatable Balloon Catheter and Balloon-less Catheter in Central Lumbar Spinal Stenosis with Neurogenic Claudication: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Pain Physician, 2018
BACKGROUND When conventional interventional procedures fail, percutaneous epidural adhesiolysis (PEA), which has moderate evidence for successful treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS), has been recommended over surgical treatments.

Double-balloon catheter for induction of labor in 362 women with and without prior cesarean section

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology: X, 2019
Objective: Balloon catheter is the preferred method for induction of labor in women with prior cesarean section. We sought to evaluate the rate of vaginal delivery, induction-delivery time and outcome predictors after induction with double-balloon ...

Balloon Guide Catheter Versus Non–Balloon Guide Catheter: A MR CLEAN Registry Analysis

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology
Background Balloon guide catheters (BGCs) are used to prevent distal emboli during endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke. Although literature reports benefit of BGC, these are not universally used, and randomized head‐to‐head comparisons are lacking.

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 ...

Bioprosthetic Valve Fracturing: In vitro Testing of Edwards PERIMOUNT Model P 2900

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundBioprosthetic valve fracturing (BVF) results in low gradients following valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement (ViV-TAVR). For the commonly used Edwards PERIMOUNT valve data from bench-testing are lacking to provide technical ...

Atrial Septostomy for Left Atrial Decompression During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation by Inoue Balloon Catheter.

Circulation Journal, 2017
BACKGROUND Refractory pulmonary edema is an infrequent but serious complication in patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) for myocardial failure. Left atrial (LA) decompression in this setting is important. Although

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in
