DexaPatch, an implantable, low‐swelling amphiphilic hydrogel system containing dexamethasone‐PLGA microparticles, is developed and characterized for sustained local steroid release to reduce postoperative inflammation in tight surgical spaces. DexaPatch significantly reduces postoperative edema and fibrosis in a rabbit model of anterior spinal surgery,

Risk stratification in non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes: risk scores, biomarkers and clinical judgment [PDF]
Undifferentiated chest pain is one of the most common reasons for emergency department attendance and admission to hospitals. Non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) is an important cause of chest pain, and accurate diagnosis and risk ...

Optimism and interventional cardiology [PDF]
One day, a decade ago, I was trying to place a coronary stent. It wasn’t going well. I grumbled to Tammy, the cath technologist assisting me, that it looked like we were going to fail. Tammy looked me straight in the eye and said, “Dr. Blankenship, you really are a pessimistic person.” After the case ended successfully, her comment lingered. That night,

Health Digital Twins Supported by Artificial Intelligence-based Algorithms and Extended Reality in Cardiology [PDF]
Recently, significant efforts have been made to create Health Digital Twins (HDTs), digital twins for clinical applications. Heart modeling is one of the fastest-growing fields, which favors the effective application of HDTs. The clinical application of HDTs will be increasingly widespread in the future of healthcare services and has a huge potential ...

Roughly Collected Dataset for Contact Force Sensing Catheter [PDF]
With rise of interventional cardiology, Catheter Ablation Therapy (CAT) has established itself as a first-line solution to treat cardiac arrhythmia. Although CAT is a promising technique, cardiologist lacks vision inside the body during the procedure, which may cause serious clinical syndromes.

Multi-Modality Cardiac Image Computing: A Survey [PDF]
Multi-modality cardiac imaging plays a key role in the management of patients with cardiovascular diseases. It allows a combination of complementary anatomical, morphological and functional information, increases diagnosis accuracy, and improves the efficacy of cardiovascular interventions and clinical outcomes.

A type of magnetically responsive artificial cells (ACs) has been developed, demonstrating the loading of mitochondria and self‐enclosure processes to ensure the protection of mitochondrial transport via the bloodstream. The treatment with ACs effectively transplanted mitochondria around the lesion, thereby improving neurological recovery by supporting

Interventional Cardiology in Chile
In Chile the first experiences with cardiac catheterization began very shortly after Forssmann's first studies. Percutaneous coronary balloon angioplasty (PTCA) was first performed in 1982. Despite a progressively great interest and training of physicians in invasive cardiology there are still restrictions in its development.
