Applying machine learning methods to predict operative mortality after tricuspid valve surgery

The Cardiothoracic Surgeon, 2023
Background EuroSCORE stratifies surgical risk in cardiac surgery; however, it is not explicitly for tricuspid valve surgery. Therefore, we aimed to apply machine learning (ML) methods to predict operative mortality after tricuspid valve surgery and ...

Levosimendan in Cardiac Surgery

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2005
Levosimendan is a new calcium sensitizer with inodilatory properties. There is growing clinical experience with levosimendan given to cardiac surgical patients. The aim of this report was to evaluate the effects of perioperative use of levosimendan in surgical patients with high perioperative risk, compromised left ventricular (LV) function, or ...

From In‐Silico Optimized Microfabrication to Experimental Validation: Engineering a Tridimensional Epi‐Intraneural Interface

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An epi‐intraneural interface is developed through in silico optimization and a novel tridimensional microfabrication pipeline. The device integrates penetrating and epineural contacts on a flexible substrate. Mechanical, electrochemical, and in vivo testing in rat and pig reveal robust implantation, low‐threshold activation, and site‐dependent ...

An Ionic Gelation Powder for Ultrafast Hemostasis and Accelerated Wound Healing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An ultrafast ionic gelation‐activated hemostatic powder (AGCL) forms a hydrogel within ≈1 s upon contact with blood‐derived calcium ions. The AGCL powder enables rapid hemorrhage control, strong tissue adhesion, and enhanced healing. The powder's pre‐crosslinked polymer network ensures high blood uptake and stability, offering effective treatment for ...
