OBJECT The underlying mechanisms causing intracranial perianeurysmal edema (PAE) are still poorly understood. Since PAE is most frequently observed in giant intracranial aneurysms (GIAs), the authors designed a study to examine the occurrence of PAE in ...

A Nonlinear Mechanics-based Virtual Coiling Method For Intracranial Aneurysm [PDF]
Enodvascular coils treat intracranial aneurysms (IAs) by causing them to occlude by thrombosis. Ideally, coiled IAs eventually occlude in the long-term. However, 20.8% are found incompletely occluded at treatment follow-up. Computer simulations of coiling and its effect on aneurysmal flow could help clinicians predict treatment outcomes a priori, but ...

Adherence and persistence with direct oral anticoagulants by dose regimen: A systematic review
Introduction Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are used in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) to prevent complications such as embolic events. Poor adherence to DOACs increases the risk of these complications. This manuscript reviews the impact of once‐daily (OD) vs twice‐daily (BID) dosing regimens on adherence and persistence to ...

Multi-scale simulation of thrombus formation at LVAD inlet cannula connection: Importance of Virchow's triad [PDF]
As pump thrombosis is reduced in current-generation ventricular assist devices (VAD), adverse events such as bleeding or stroke remain at unacceptable rates. Thrombosis around the VAD inlet cannula (IC) has been highlighted as a possible source of stroke events.

Exploratory Simulation of Thrombosis in a Temporary LVAD Catheter Pump within a Virtual In-vivo Left Heart Environment [PDF]
Percutaneous catheter pumps are intraventricular temporary mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices that are positioned across the aortic valve into the left ventricle (LV) and provide continuous antegrade blood flow from the LV into the ascending aorta (AA).
