Toward Wireless Implantable Robotic Systems Driven by Magnetic Field for Personalized Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic materials are playing an increasingly vital role in enabling sensing and actuation at small scales. This perspective highlights recent advances in magnetic materials and magnetically actuated devices for wireless sensing, actuation, and energy harvesting toward implantable robotic systems for closed‐loop therapy.

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation: an update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is now an important therapeutic modality for patients with AF. There is considerable evidence available from several prospective randomized trials demonstrating that catheter ablation of AF is superior to ...

Robot Autonomy for Surgery

open access: yes, 2017
Autonomous surgery involves having surgical tasks performed by a robot operating under its own will, with partial or no human involvement. There are several important advantages of automation in surgery, which include increasing precision of care due to ...

A Superlubricated Magnetically Steerable Microcatheter with Integrated Optical and Fluidic Channels

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetically steerable microcatheter with integrated optical and fluidic channels is developed for multifunctional navigation in tortuous anatomical environments. A surface‐grafted hydrogel coating enables low‐friction actuation. The device demonstrates stable light and fluid delivery during magnetic manipulation, offering a compact platform for ...

Dual Foreign Body Response Mitigation Strategies for Implantable Glucose Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
The foreign body response negatively impacts the analytical lifetime of implantable glucose sensors due to a heightened immune response and deposition of collagen. While nitric oxide release has shown promise as a foreign body response mitigation strategy, improvement is limited by the duration of release.

Anisotropic Surface Microrollers for Endovascular Navigation: A Computational Analysis with a Case Study in Hepatic Perfusion

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Computational fluid dynamics analyses assess the upstream locomotion performance of anisotropic microrollers with varying height‐to‐width ratios. Observing their successful upstream locomotion in veins, their performance in hepatic circulation is investigated for treating primary liver cancer.

Significance of the APPLE score and the monocyte–HDL cholesterol ratio in predicting late recurrence of atrial fibrillation following catheter ablation based on a retrospective study

open access: yesBMJ Open
Objective Collect the characteristics of patients’ baseline data, and explore the predictive factors of late recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after catheter ablation according to whether late recurrence or not.
