Design of heart phantoms for ultrasound imaging of ventricular septal defects

International Journal of Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery, 2021
Ventricular septal defects (VSDs) are common congenital heart malformations. Echocardiography used during VSD hybrid cardiac procedures requires extensive training for image acquisition and interpretation. Cardiac surgery simulators with heart phantoms have shown usefulness for such training, but they are limited in visualization and characterization ...

Navigation guidance for ventricular septal defect closure in heart phantoms

International Journal of Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery, 2022
Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is the preferred imaging modality in a hybrid procedure used to close ventricular septal defects (VSDs). However, the limited field of view of TEE hinders the maneuvering of surgical instruments inside the beating heart.

Repair of postinfarction ventricular septal defect on a beating heart

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1996
Two elderly patients with postinfarction ventricular septal defect underwent repair by endocardial patch with infarct exclusion on a beating heart under normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass with ultra-short-acting beta-blocker infusion. Their hemodynamic states soon recovered, and postoperative angiographic studies showed improvement of cardiac function

An isolated ventricular septal defect as a consequence of penetrating injury to the heart

European Journal of Cardio-thoracic Surgery, 1999
The authors describe, in a case report, an isolated defect of the ventricular septum developing due to a stab injury to the heart not requiring an emergency surgical intervention. Two months after the injury, the authors performed primary surgical correction of the defect.

Nature of heart failure in patients with ventricular septal defect

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1995
To assess the contributions of systolic and diastolic dysfunction to congestive heart failure (CHF) in ventricular septal defect (VSD), we studied 13 children with VSD at catheterization using a Millar catheter. Eight children had CHF, whereas five did not. Phenylephrine was infused at a rate of 5 micrograms.kg-1.min-1, and M-mode echocardiography and

Ventricular Septal Defect Closure in Taussig-Bing Heart: The “Pulmonic Rule” [PDF]

open access: possibleThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2009
Accurate ventricular septal defect patch sizing and tailoring remain challenging in many surgical procedures. Surgical exposure frequently limits complete visualization of the ventricular septal defect. Moreover, examination of the heart cavity under cardioplegic arrest may lead to skewed appreciation of the ventricular septal defect caliber and shape.

Recatheterization of the right heart in ventricular septal defect

American Heart Journal, 1959
Abstract Repeat right heart catheterization was carried out in 20 patients from 17 months to 9 years following the initial study. In only a few patients was there an increase in pulmonary pressure. In some infants there was a significant fall. No deterioration in clinical signs or symptoms occurred. In view of these data it is suggested that one be
