ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) has emerged as a valuable treatment for severe pulmonary regurgitation (PR). The Salus valve (Balance Medical Technology Co. Ltd., Beijing, China) represents a novel self‐expanding valve stent designed for deployment through a transthoracic approach with a small subxiphoid incision ...

CardioMEMS™ in LVAD Patients: A Case Series [PDF]
Patients with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) commonly encounter issues with volume status post-implant. Volume overload can result from incomplete compensation of left ventricular failure or from right ventricular failure.

The Efficacy of Thoratec Implantable Ventricular Assist Devices Compared to Syncardia Total Artificial Hearts as Bridge-to-Transplantation Therapy in Adults with Biventricular Heart Failure [PDF]
Introduction: Systolic heart failure is a chronic condition in which there is a decrease in the heart’s ability to pump blood to the body. While there are several treatments for the symptoms of heart failure, the only curative treatment for most causes ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery [PDF]
Robotic assistance has significantly improved the outcomes of open microsurgery and rigid endoscopic surgery, however is yet to make an impact in flexible endoscopic neurosurgery. Some of the most common intracranial procedures for treatment of hydrocephalus and tumors stand to benefit from increased dexterity and reduced invasiveness offered by ...

Bayesian Inference of Individualized Treatment Effects using Multi-task Gaussian Processes [PDF]
Predicated on the increasing abundance of electronic health records, we investi- gate the problem of inferring individualized treatment effects using observational data. Stemming from the potential outcomes model, we propose a novel multi- task learning framework in which factual and counterfactual outcomes are mod- eled as the outputs of a function in
