ASSIST DEVICES IN CARDIAC SURGERY

open access: yesThe Professional Medical Journal, 2018
Objectives: IABP is the most frequently used assist device in cardiac surgery. However, due to the poor socioeconomic status in our country, it is not always possible to use a brand new IABP when required. In these circumstances we use re-sterilized IABP catheters. Our aim was to compare the outcome of re-sterilized versus new IABP catheters in the set

Key Trends and Insights in Smart Polymeric Skin Wearable Patches

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Intelligent polymers, which respond to various physical and biological stimuli, are explored for the development of skin wearable patches in biomedical applications. Smart polymers, also known as intelligent or stimuli‐responsive polymers, play a crucial role in the development of advanced wearable patches due to their versatility and softness.

Pressure-Volume Loop Analysis in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention-Induced Shock

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
High-risk percutaneous coronary intervention may lead to undesirable clinical scenarios such as cardiogenic shock. We describe the hemodynamic changes using pressure-volume loop analyses in percutaneous coronary intervention-induced shock.

A Case of HeartMate 3 Outflow Graft Twisting with Extraluminal Thrombosis: Is Computed Tomography Angiography Helpful? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Twists in the outflow graft of the HeartMateTM 3 device (Abbott) have recently been described as a sporadic, late complication. We present a case with a unique combination of external compression of the HeartMate 3 outflow graft by a surgical scar ...

Time‐Controlled Dual Targeting to Program Systemic and Intercellular Transfer of Therapeutic Effects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Aspirin‐liposomes loaded onto monocytes enable inflammation‐triggered targeting and efficient hand‐over of aspirin to inflamed cells. Monocytes uptake a significant portion of aspirin‐liposomes, prolonging therapeutic action. This approach enhances anti‐inflammatory effects through intercellular transfer, demonstrating a translational strategy for ...

Biologically‐Inspired Melt Electrowriting for the Generation of Highly Biomimetic Functional Myocardium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, melt electrowriting is used to fabricate a 3D printed scaffold design that generates engineered cardiac tissues with in‐plane contraction, mimicking natural myocardium. It is shown that these tissues display advanced maturation and functionality.
