Subclavian Vein Stenosis: A Potentially Serious Complication in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients with Permanent Cardiac Pacemakers

open access: yes, 1997
We report on two hemodialyzed patients in whom subclavian and brachiocephalic vein stenosis secondary to permanent cardiac pacemakers led to massive congestive edema of the same arm after arteriovenous fistula/grafts were created.

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity

open access: yesSleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Four‐dimensional immuno‐mechanobiomaterials: Dynamic material cues that program host response to prevent fibrosis and enable regeneration

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Dynamic immuno‐mechanobiomaterials with time‐programmed mechanical adaptation orchestrate host responses through precise mechanotransduction and immune‐stromal regulation. These adaptive biomaterials minimize mechanical mismatch, attenuate the forign dy response and fibrosis, promote angiogenesis and controlled extracellular matrix remodeling, and ...

Effects of Noninvasive Cervical Vagal Nerve Stimulation on Cognitive Performance But Not Brain Activation in Healthy Adults

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Objectives While preliminary evidence suggests that noninvasive vagal nerve stimulation (nVNS) may enhance cognition, to our knowledge, no study has directly assessed the effects of nVNS on brain function and cognitive performance in healthy individuals.

Peri‐operative management of patients having day surgery: a consensus statement from the Association of Anaesthetists, British Association for Day Surgery and the Association of Paediatric Anaesthetists, Great Britain and Ireland

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Day surgery is now recognised widely as being a vital component of modern healthcare delivery with overall day surgery rates in the UK now > 85%. Day surgery offers an enhanced experience for patients with reduced risk of postoperative complications (e.g.

Post‐Market Analysis of the Xenios Console With the Xlung Tubing Kit 230 for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation After Cardiac Surgery

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study is a comprehensive post‐market analysis of the Xenios console and XLung kit 230 preconfigured ECMO tubing set in post‐cardiotomy applications. The performance of this device was evaluated and demonstrated in all key clinical areas, with an adequate safety profile.

Monitoring Mitochondrial Function With High‐Resolution Respirometry During Ex‐Situ Heart Perfusion

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Normothermic ESHP preserves mitochondrial respiratory function over 6 h in a porcine model (n = 6): OXPHOS capacities across NADH‐, fatty‐acid‐, and succinate‐linked pathways remain stable, with reduced cytochrome‐c control efficiency indicating improved outer‐membrane integrity. HRR provides a rapid, actionable readout for organ assessment.

Terapia eléctrica de las arritmias cardiacas

open access: yesActa Médica Costarricense, 2003
Desde la introducción de la estimulación cardiaca mediante marcapasos implantables en la década de 1950, el tratamiento no farmacológico ("terapia eléctrica") de diversas anomalías del ritmo cardiaco ha evolucionado notablemente, contándose en la ...
