Continuous cardiac output measured with a Swan-Ganz catheter reacts too slowly in animal experiments with sudden circulatory failure [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In many animal experiments, it is vital to detect sudden changes in cardiac output (CO). This porcine study compared CO that was measured with a Swan‐Ganz pulmonary catheter with the gold standard (which was a transit‐time flow probe around ...

Load adaptation indices and concepts. An adapted RV in response to overload increases wall thickness to normalize wall stress and preserve function and morphology. If hemodynamic overload is sustained, it can progress to a maladaptive state and lead eventually to heart failure. CI, cardiac index; Ees, ventricular elastance; Ea, arterial elastance; MPAP,

Objective: to study the prognostic value and correlations of hemodynamic parameters during operations under extracorporeal circulation (EC), as well as the possibilities of mathematically predicting the time that takes to recover the normal function of ...

Development of configurational forces during the injection of an elastic rod [PDF]
When an inextensible elastic rod is 'injected' through a sliding sleeve against a fixed constraint, configurational forces are developed, deeply influencing the mechanical response. This effect, which is a consequence of the change in length of the portion of the rod included between the sliding sleeve and the fixed constraint, is theoretically ...

Non-invasive urinary bladder volume estimation with artefact-suppressed bio-impedance measurements [PDF]
Urine output is a vital parameter to gauge kidney health. Current monitoring methods include manually written records, invasive urinary catheterization or ultrasound measurements performed by highly skilled personnel. Catheterization bears high risks of infection while intermittent ultrasound measures and manual recording are time consuming and might ...

ROC curves illustrates the predictive value of parameters obtained from three methods in predicting any of the AEs. AEs, adverse events; FPR, false positive rate; TPR, true positive rate; 1 (LVEFmea line overlaps with LVEFmin line); 2 (SVRImea line overlaps with SVRImin line); 3 (SVRImea line, SVRImin line, and LVEFmea line overlap); 4 (SVRImea line ...

Flow-driven robotic navigation of microengineered endovascular probes [PDF]
Minimally invasive medical procedures, such as endovascular catheterization, have drastically reduced procedure time and associated complications. However, many regions inside the body, such as in the brain vasculature, still remain inaccessible due to the lack of appropriate guidance technologies. Here, experimentally and through numerical simulations,

Massive haemoptysis on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]
A 49-year old female presented with severe heart failure with end-organ dysfunction and was placed on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as a bridge to a decision for end-organ recovery.

The retrospective cohort study is the first to compare OPAL with Prometheus and hemodialysis for adult ACLF patients. Both extracorporeal liver support systems were comparably effective with regard to the reduction of bilirubin and creatinine levels surpassing the effects seen in hemodialysis. We recognized improvements in clinical scoring, such as the
