Journal of interventional cardiac electrophysiology, 2020 Ventricular arrhythmias are an important cause of morbidity and mortality and come in a variety of forms, from single premature ventricular complexes to sustained ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. Rapid developments have taken place over the past

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2020 Importance Catheter ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) has limited success. Procedural strategies beyond pulmonary vein isolation have failed to consistently improve results. The vein of Marshall contains innervation and AF triggers that can

An intervention to decrease catheter-related bloodstream infections in the ICU.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2006 BACKGROUND Catheter-related bloodstream infections occurring in the intensive care unit (ICU) are common, costly, and potentially lethal. METHODS We conducted a collaborative cohort study predominantly in ICUs in Michigan.

Inside-Out access strategy using new trans-vascular catheter approach
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2016 Image guided minimal invasive treatment can have large benefits for patient recovery and is lowering hospitalisation costs. But an access path, minimizing patient’s risk, is needed to reach the target structure inside of the body.

INNOLAB- image guided surgery and therapy lab
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2017 Incremental innovation, something better or cheaper or more effective, is the standard innovation process for medical product development. Disruptive innovation is often not recognized as disruptive, because it very often starts as a simple and easy ...

Miniature CNT-based X-ray tube: assessment for use in intraoperative radiation therapy
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2017 Carbon nanotube (CNT) is a new technology used to generate gamma photons in X-ray tubes. CNTs, in comparison to other small X-ray sources, produce high X-ray intensities and as they are not based on a thermionic principle they considered cold electron ...
