Magnetically Active Cardiac Patches as an Untethered, Non‐Blood Contacting Ventricular Assist Device

Advanced Science, 2021
Patients suffering from heart failure often require circulatory support using ventricular assist devices (VADs). However, most existing VADs provide nonpulsatile flow, involve direct contact between the blood flow and the device's lumen and moving ...

Surface coatings for ventricular assist devices [PDF]

, 2009
This review focuses on the surface engineering of ventricular assist devices (VADs) for treating heart failing patients, which involves modification of the blood contacting surfaces to improve the blood compatibility (or heamocompatability) of the VADs ...

Prehospital randomised assessment of a mechanical compression device in cardiac arrest (PaRAMeDIC) trial protocol [PDF]

, 2010
Background Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is closely linked to the quality of CPR, but in real life, resuscitation during pre-hospital care and ambulance transport is often suboptimal.

Cardiac Assist Devices

Cardiology Clinics, 1988
Mechanical circulatory assistance is making the transition from an investigational technique to standard clinical practice, especially for post-cardiotomy shock. History, techniques, medications, complications, and results of mechanical assistance are reviewed. Promising trends for the future are presented.

Biventricular Intravascular Microaxial Blood Pumps and Immunosuppression as a Bridge to Recovery in Giant Cell Myocarditis

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
We report a case of giant cell myocarditis in a 76-year-old patient managed with combined immunosuppression and biventricular intravascular microaxial blood pumps. This case highlights a feasible approach for managing such patients who are not candidates

Added Prognostic Value of EEG Reactivity in Comatose Patients Following Cardiac Arrest

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the added prognostic value of EEG reactivity for favorable outcome compared with background analysis during and after targeted temperature management (TTM). Methods Prospective observational cohort study of comatose post–cardiac arrest patients admitted to a single academic center between 2017 and 2022, all undergoing ...
