Early sheath removal after percutaneous coronary intervention using Assiut Femoral Compression Device is feasible and safe. Results of a randomized controlled trial

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2015
Objective: This study was performed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of early sheath removal after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using a locally designed Assiut Femoral Compression Device (AFCD2) vs. manual compression (MC).

Association of the long fluoroscopy time with factors in contemporary primary percutaneous coronary interventions.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BACKGROUND:Since the long fluoroscopy time in primary PCI for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) could be an indicator of delayed reperfusion, it should be important to recognize which types of lesions require longer fluoroscopy-time in ...

Investigating the Spillover Mechanisms of Payment Incentives on the Outcomes for Non‐Targeted Patients

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Payment reforms in healthcare can have spillover effects on the care experienced by non‐targeted patients treated by the same provider. Few empirical studies have quantitatively investigated the mechanisms behind these effects. We formulate theory‐driven hypotheses to investigate the spillover mechanisms of a regional payment reform in the ...

Transfer and Development Length of Prestressing Tendons in Full-Scale AASHTO Prestressed Concrete Girders Using Self-Consolidating Concrete [PDF]

, 2009
Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is a highly workable concrete that flows through densely reinforced or complex structural elements under its own weight. The benefits of using SCC include: a) Reducing labor costs by eliminating the need for mechanical

Quantum Strongly Secure Ramp Secret Sharing [PDF]

, 2014
Quantum secret sharing is a scheme for encoding a quantum state (the secret) into multiple shares and distributing them among several participants. If a sufficient number of shares are put together, then the secret can be fully reconstructed.

Downconversion Master Slave OCT With a Bidirectional Sweeping Laser

Journal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the challenges of signal processing when using optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging instruments driven by asymmetric MHz bidirectional sweeping lasers. A downconversion master–slave (DMS) method is proposed as a viable alternative to the traditional OCT protocol.

Improved and Automated Detection of Papillary Muscle Infarction Using Joint Bright‐ and Black‐Blood Late Gadolinium Enhancement MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Papillary muscle infarction (PMI) has been linked to significantly increased mortality and is associated with ventricular arrhythmias and mitral regurgitation. Reference bright‐blood late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging provides poor scar‐to‐blood contrast, making PMI visualization challenging. Black‐blood LGE imaging overcomes
