Histotripsy of blood clots within a hollow cylindrical transducer for aspiration thrombectomy applications [PDF]

arXiv
Thrombolytic occlusions in stroke, pulmonary embolism and the peripheral vasculature are increasingly treated with aspiration, a catheter-based approach that employs suction to extract clots through a hollow catheter lumen. Unfortunately, aspiration is frequently unsuccessful in extracting more challenging clots, which can become corked in the distal ...

Enhanced Drug Effect With Cutting Balloon Followed by Drug Coated Balloon in a Rabbit Model

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Drug‐coated balloon (DCB) are effective treatment options for patients with coronary artery disease and using of scoring or cutting balloon before the DCB usage were recommended. However, the effectiveness of lesion preparation with cutting balloons (CB) followed by DCB (CB + DCB) has not been evaluated before.

A case of disseminated intravascular coagulation of sepsis that caused extreme‐thrombocytopenia treated at a remote‐island‐hospital

Journal of General and Family Medicine, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 50-53, January 2023., 2023
A 66‐year‐old male had urinary tract infection by Escherichia coli, followed by septic shock and DIC rapidly just two days after the onset. He was treated and recovered in three weeks without any massive bleeding at a remote‐island‐hospital. Gram‐staining and immediate insertion of CV are essential techniques to care severe infections even in remote ...

A novel forward-looking ultrasound catheter for treating vascular occlusions [PDF]

arXiv
Thrombotic and chronic occlusions of large blood vessels are a major cause of mortality and morbidity, and so there is a need for improved treatments in many clinical circumstances. Endovascular ultrasound approaches have been shown to hold considerable potential to treat large vessel thrombotic occlusions.

The Impact of Hydrostatic Pressure on Fractional Flow Reserve in Saphenous Vein Grafts

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The relationship between height differences related to graft anatomy and physiological pressure indices in coronary bypass grafts has not been studied. We sought to study the impact of hydrostatic pressure on fractional flow reserve (FFR) in saphenous vein grafts (SVGs).
