Factors associated with post-arrest withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy. [PDF]

, 2017
INTRODUCTION: Most successfully resuscitated cardiac arrest patients do not survive to hospital discharge. Many have withdrawal of life sustaining therapy (WLST) as a result of the perception of poor neurologic prognosis.

Outflow boundary conditions for 3D simulations of non-periodic blood flow and pressure fields in deformable arteries [PDF]

, 2010
The simulation of blood flow and pressure in arteries requires outflow boundary conditions that incorporate models of downstream domains. We previously described a coupled multidomain method to couple analytical models of the downstream domains with 3D ...

Optimization of Magnetic Milli‐Spinner for Robotic Endovascular Intervention

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents the design optimization of a multifunctional magnetic milli‐spinner for high‐speed propulsion and efficient clot debulking. The optimized design achieves an ultrafast swimming velocity of 55 cm/s (≈175 body lengths/s) in saline water, enabling stable upstream swimming against strong physiological flows and establishing magnetic milli‐
