Synergistic effect of shear and ADP on platelet growth on ZTA and Ti6Al4V surfaces [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Continuous-flow ventricular assist devices (VADs) have been an increasingly common, life-saving therapy for advanced heart-failure patients, but elevate the risk of thrombosis due to a combination of non-physiological hemodynamics and synthetic biomaterials.

In Vitro Durability - Pivot bearing with Diamond Like Carbon for Ventricular Assist Devices [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Institute Dante Pazzanese of Cardiology (IDPC) develops Ventricular Assist Devices (VAD) that can stabilize the hemodynamics of patients with severe heart failure before, during and/or after the medical practice; can be temporary or permanent. The ADV's centrifugal basically consist of a rotor suspended for system pivoting bearing; the PIVOT is the ...

Depth‐Customizable 3D Electrode Array for Recording Functional Connectivity in the Brain
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.In this study, a depth‐adjustable, flexible 3D multi‐shank electrode array that produces precise neural recordings at various brain depths is developed. Integrating 2D flexible electrode arrays with a modular supporting board allowed the insertion depth to be easily adjusted without re‐fabrication.

Relationship between device acceptance and patient-reported outcomes in left ventricular assist device (LVAD) recipients [PDF]
, 2019 The number of Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs) implanted each year is rising. Nevertheless, there are minimal data on device acceptance after LVAD implant, and on its relationship with patient-reported outcomes. We designed a cross-sectional study
