Improvement of Left Ventricular Ejection Time Measurement in the Impedance Cardiography Combined with the Reflection Photoplethysmography

Sensors, 2018
Cardiac stroke volume (SV) is an essential hemodynamic indicator that can be used to assess whether the pump function of the heart is normal. Non-invasive SV measurement is currently performed using the impedance cardiography (ICG).

Unravelling the Genetics of Ischaemic Stroke [PDF]

, 2010
Epidemiological studies suggest genetic predisposition is important in stroke risk. Monogenic conditions are important for the individual patient but do not account for much population attributable risk. An increasing number of such conditions are being

Antioxidant status in acute stroke patients and patients at stroke risk [PDF]

, 2004
Background and Purpose: Antioxidant enzymes like copper/ zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and gluthatione peroxidase (GSHPx) are part of intracellular protection mechanisms to overcome oxidative stress and are known to be activated in vascular ...

Cardiac exercise imaging using a 3-tesla magnetic resonance-conditional pedal ergometer: Preliminary results in healthy volunteers and patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease

Cardiology Journal, 2023
BACKGROUND: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) remains underutilized as an exercise imaging modality, mostly because of the limited availability of MR-compatible exercise equipment.

Using the Pulse Contour Method to Measure the Changes in Stroke Volume during a Passive Leg Raising Test

Sensors, 2018
The pulse contour method is often used with the Windkessel model to measure stroke volume. We used a digital pressure and flow sensors to detect the parameters of the Windkessel model from the pulse waveform. The objective of this study was to assess the

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.
