Effect of Shockwave Intensity on Upper Limb Spasticity in Patients with Stroke

مجله علمی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کردستان, 2021
Background and Aim: Spasticity following upper motor neuron lesions has adverse effects on patients' quality of life and performance. Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment to reduce muscle tone.

Comparison Between the Acurate Neo and the Acurate Neo 2 Transcatheter Heart Valve System: Impact of Midframe Under‐Expansion

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with the Acurate Neo has been linked to a significant incidence of paravalvular leakage (PVL), addressed by the Acurate Neo 2 incorporating an active sealing skirt. Recent findings suggest that midframe under‐expansion is associated with worse outcomes.

Shockwave treatment of erectile dysfunction [PDF]

Therapeutic Advances in Urology, 2013
Low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (LI-ESWT) is a novel modality that has recently been developed for treating erectile dysfunction (ED). Unlike other current treatment options for ED, all of which are palliative in nature, LI-ESWT is unique in that it aims to restore the erectile mechanism in order to enable natural or spontaneous ...

Novel Use of Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Mobilization of an Entrapped Coronary Guidewire in a Heavily Calcified LAD/DB Bifurcation Lesion—A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 64‑year‑old man with a Non–ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) underwent coronary angiography, which revealed single‑vessel disease with a high‑grade proximal and a severely calcified mid‑LAD lesion just proximal to a diagonal branch (DB). Both the LAD and the DB were wired.

Shock detection and design enhancement for pneumatic control valve [PDF]

FME Transactions
The existence of shockwaves in pneumatic valves can greatly affect their efficiency and cause damage to important parts. This study focuses on the examination of a cost-effective pneumatic directional control valve with the aim of augmenting its output ...

Incidence of Periprocedural Myocardial Injury and Infarction After Intravascular Lithotripsy for Calcified Coronary Artery Stenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as an effective technique for modifying heavily calcified coronary plaques, facilitating optimal stent expansion while minimizing procedural complications. However, data on periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and infarction (PPMI) following IVL remain scarce.

When Subtle Guiding Catheter‐Induced Stent Deformation Leads to Abluminal Guidewire Passage: Successful IVUS Tip‐Detection‐Guided Bailout

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incomplete stent apposition at the proximal coronary artery may predispose to subtle guiding catheter–induced stent deformation, creating a gap between the stent and the vessel wall that facilitates inadvertent abluminal guidewire passage. We report a case in which balloon dilatation over an unrecognized abluminal guidewire resulted in severe ...

Intravascular Lithotripsy in Left Main Stem Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background IVL is increasingly used for coronary calcium modification; however, prospective data for its use in LMS lesions are lacking. Aims To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and mechanical efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for calcium modification in calcified distal left main stem (LMS) percutaneous coronary intervention ...

From shockwaves to the gravitational memory effect

Journal of High Energy Physics
We study the relationship between shockwave geometries and the gravitational memory effect in four-dimensional asymptotically flat spacetime. In particular, we show the ’t Hooft commutation relations of shockwave operators are equivalent to the ...
