Recent advances in multifunctional soft robots: A materials–structures–systems co‐design perspective for synergistic integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

Ingrowth of aorta wall into stent grafts impregnated with basic fibroblast growth factor: a porcine in vivo study of blood vessel prosthesis healing [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2004
Endovascular aneurysm repair is an alternative treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm. The procedure is less invasive, and morbidity and most probably mortality are reduced. However, some problems, such as endoleakage, are yet to be resolved. Endoleakage can occur after graft migration, as a result of insufficient fixation of the stent graft. One cause

Biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of crosslinked dermal sheep collagen [PDF]

, 1994
The biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of four crosslinked dermal sheep collagens (DSC) was studied. In vitro, the four DSC versions were found to be noncytotoxic or very low in cytoxicity.

Proximal endovascular blood flow shunt for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurism without total aortic clamping

Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões
The authors present a surgical approach to type III and IV Crawford aneurysms that does not need total aortic clamping, which allows the more objective prevention of direct ischemic damage, as well as its exclusion by the endoprosthesis implantation ...

Vascular access cannulation in hemodialysis patients: technical approach

Brazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2019
Introduction: The vascular access cannulation technique varies among clinics, and guidelines on vascular access give little importance to cannulation techniques. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cannulation technique and to determine which

[Experimental and clinical research on the Russian Vitaflon blood vessel prosthesis].

Vestnik khirurgii imeni I. I. Grekova, 1997
The authors have performed an experimental and clinical assessment of a new graft. In 37 mongrel dogs 49 experiments were carried out with the implantation of grafts "Vitaflon" into different parts of the arterial and venous bed. It was shown that the domestic graft from modified polytetraftoroethylene had high biological inertia, good plastic ...
