Continuous cerebral hemodynamic measurement during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest

open access: yesBiomedical Optics Express, 2016
While survival of children with complex congenital heart defects has improved in recent years, roughly half suffer neurological deficits suspected to be related to cerebral ischemia. Here we report the first demonstration of optical diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) for continuous and non-invasive monitoring of cerebral microvascular blood flow ...

Differentiating Creatine and Phosphocreatine In Vivo Using 3 T 1H MR Spectroscopy

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 1896-1906, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Validation and improvements to the proton MR spectroscopic measurement of creatine and phosphocreatine in vivo at 3 T. Methods Spectral simulations were used to evaluate and explore the mitigation of LCModel fitting bias due to lineshape, signal‐to‐noise (SNR) and non‐metabolite backgrounds with a focus on phosphocreatine and the ...

Rescue Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty Prior to Pulmonary Endarterectomy With Concomitant Mitral Valve Plasty in High‐Risk Operable CTEPH

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is a potentially curative treatment for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH); however, decompensated right heart failure and concomitant cardiac procedures increase the risk of postoperative mortality. We report a case of operable CTEPH with severe mitral regurgitation causing right heart failure

Rewarming for accidental hypothermia in an urban medical center using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Accidental hypothermia complicated by cardiac arrest carries a high mortality rate in urban areas. For moderate hypothermia cases conventional rewarming methods are usually adequate, however in severe cases extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
