An Approach to Catheter Ablation of Cavotricuspid Isthmus Dependent Atrial Flutter [PDF]

, 2006
Much of our understanding of the mechanisms of macro re-entrant atrial tachycardia comes from study of cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent atrial flutter.

Development of Substrate‐Independent Antifouling and Bactericidal Surfaces Using Visible Light Cross‐Linked Hydrogel Coatings for Biomedical Applications

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A new antifouling, antithrombogenic, and bactericidal hydrogel coating method is developed for implantable medical devices. The hydrogel coating can be easily formed by visible‐light crosslinking and is universally applicable to all substrates, ranging from polymers to metals.

Incidence and predictors of premature ventricular complexes following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and previous studies have focused on the epidemiology, mechanisms and risk factors for this global disease (Ryder and Benjamin 1999). Various studies have examined the mechanism,

Kidney Stone Dissolution By Tetherless, Enzyme‐Loaded, Soft Magnetic Miniature Robots

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Wireless magnetic robots are developed for kidney stone dissolution. The robots navigate through a urinary tract model from bladder and ureter to renal pelvis with the help of external magnetic fields. The filaments are loaded with urease enzyme which catalyzes urea to carbon dioxide and ammonia, thereby increasing pH to basic regime and supporting ...

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation [PDF]

Clinical Cardiology, 2002
AbstractFollowing the advent of the surgical maze procedure, several catheter techniques have been developed to provide permanent prophylaxis against atrial fibrillation. These Noninvasive techniques work by compartmentalizing the atria, by ablating the arrhythmogenic foci, or by isolating the atria from these foci.

Hollow‐Structured Nanorobot with Excellent Magnetic Propulsion for Catalytic Pollutant Degradation, Anti‐Bacterial and Biofilm Removal

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hollow‐structured Fe3O4@AgAu@PDA‐ZnPc nanosphere has been developed, exhibiting controllable catalytic activity and “photothermal‐photodynamic‐Ag+” coupling antibacterial characteristics. When subjected to a rotating magnetic field, these performances are uniquely enhanced by magnetic propulsion, allowing the nanosphere to function as a magnetic ...

Atrial fibrillation and its determinants after radiofrequency ablation of chronic common atrial flutter [PDF]

, 2005
Aim. Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a major clinical issue and its occurrence is the main problem after catheter ablation of atrial flutter. The long-term occurrence of AFib after common atrial flutter ablation is still matter of debate as it may ...

Reinforced Polymer–Nanoparticle Hydrogels for Subcutaneous and Sustained Delivery of Trastuzumab

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biologic therapy development is rapidly accelerating, requiring extended delivery formulation strategies. Supramolecular hydrogels and electrostatic complexation create subcutaneous depots that release clinically relevant trastuzumab doses in a controlled manner through simple component mixing without chemical modifications.

Ultrasonic characterization of the pulmonary venous wall: echographic and histological correlation [PDF]

, 2002
Background: Pulmonary vein isolation with radiofrequency catheter ablation techniques is used to prevent recurrences of human atrial fibrillation. Visualization of the architecture at the venoatrial junction could be crucial for these ablative techniques.
