A Novel Invasive Hemodynamic Parameter (V′) to Predict Hemodynamic Response to Mitral Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair [PDF]

Structural Heart
Background: Left atrial (LA) V-wave amplitude can be higher with elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, mitral regurgitation (MR), or both. This may cause hemodynamic and echocardiographic discordance when assessing MR.

Physical and Tribological Properties of Nitrided AISI 316 Stainless Steel Balls

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
AISI 316 austenitic stainless steel balls (diameters 5.0 and 12.0 mm, typical hardness 250 HV0.3) and flat samples (20×20×2.0 mm) were nitrided by a pulsed glow discharge Ar/N2 plasma. Hardness of the ball surfaces was analysed using Vickers indentation.
