A Model of Fluid-Structure and Biochemical Interactions for Applications to Subclinical Leaflet Thrombosis [PDF]
, 2022 Subclinical leaflet thrombosis (SLT) is a potentially serious complication of aortic valve replacement with a bioprosthetic valve in which blood clots form on the replacement valve. SLT is associated with increased risk of transient ischemic attacks and strokes and can progress to clinical leaflet thrombosis. SLT following aortic valve replacement also

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2014 Stent thrombosis (ST) remains a serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), which carries with it a high rate of morbidity and mortality [(1–3)][1]. The first step in avoiding this problem is understanding how it develops and what factors might reduce risk. Because ST is,

SCS: Superior‐Vena‐Cava Compressing Shape‐Memory‐Alloy‐Based Implantable Device for Heart Failure
Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 7, April 2025.An implantable superior–vena‐cava compression device, utilizing biocompatible shape‐memory‐alloy actuators, regulates blood flow and thereby achieves an 18.6% reduction in end‐diastolic left ventricular volume in a porcine model of ADHF. This potential long‐term solution minimizes thrombosis risk by avoiding direct blood contact, offering a significant

Computational simulation of stent thrombosis induced by various degrees of stent malapposition
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation is one of the most commonly used approaches to treat coronary artery stenosis. Stent malapposition (SM) can increase the incidence of stent thrombosis, but the quantitative association between SM

Stent thrombosis and platelet reactivity [PDF]
Cor et Vasa, 2013 AbstractStent thrombosis (ST) is a rare but potentially life-threatening event that can occur following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation. Several factors related to the procedure or patient features can favor thrombus formation and development of ST.

Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021 Drug-eluting stents (DES) have a major role in treating cardiovascular disease. The evolution of bare metal stents into 1st generation durable-polymer DES (DP-DES) reduced the rate of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and the need for repeat-revascularization ...

Warfarin treatment in stent thrombosis
International Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2016 AbstractA 62year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital due to anterior ST segment elevated myocardial infarction. Thrombotic complication developed three times during the hospitalization after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
