Development of a polymer endovascular prosthesis and its implantation in porcine arteries [PDF]
A polyethylene-terephthalate braided mesh stent has been developed for application in the (coronary) arterial tree. In vitro measurements showed that the radial pressure delivered by this device was in the same range as that of a stainless steel stent ...

Summary Introduction Major lower extremity amputations occurring secondary to vascular disease remain prevalent worldwide. Pain surrounding these procedures is complex, multifactorial and associated with poor functional and psychosocial outcomes. The evidence base informing pain management approaches in major lower extremity amputations remain largely ...

Surgical repair of graft aneurysm following ascending-to-abdominal aortic bypass
Graft aneurysm after ascending aorta to abdominal aorta bypass is a rare complication of repair of coarctation of the aorta. We present a case of an aneurysm measuring 75 mm in diameter at the midportion of the prosthetic graft in a 33-year-old man.

ABSTRACT Background Skin‐reducing mastectomy (SRM) allows implant‐based immediate breast reconstruction in women with large, ptotic breasts. This study aimed to evaluate the surgical and patient‐reported outcomes (PRO) following SRM. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent SRM between January 2011 and December 2014 ...

In Vitro Hemocompatibility of the BiVACOR Total Artificial Heart in Continuous and Pulsatile Flow
BiVACOR's total artificial heart generates remarkably similar hemocompatibility when operated with a pulse or during continuous flow. Under both conditions, hemolysis and von Willebrand Factor multimers were similar to a commercial reference device after 6 h in vitro evaluation.

Trial‐Based Hemolysis Modeling to Investigate Operating Modes of Continuous‐Flow LVADs
This work presents a methodology for determining online‐capable hemolysis models for continuous‐flow LVADs, derived from in vitro trials. The models are based on fitting a modified power law and applying the Lagrangian approach. They assist clinicians in selecting treatment strategies that minimize hemolysis, as demonstrated with the Sputnik1 LVAD ...
