Heart transplantation provides considerable survival benefits for patients with end-stage heart failure, but it is available for only a small fraction of such patients all over the world due to donor shortage. Therefore, many heart transplant candidates require long-term support by a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) while they await transplantation. However, the long-term LVAD support can ...

Objectives: Vitals are the most important parameters for assessing a patient’s status and National Early Warning Score helps to assess vitals predict how urgent condition is. The perfusion index is ratio of pulsatile blood flow non-pulsatile/static in peripheral tissue. We aimed investigate relationship between courses evaluate whether NEWS PI useful predicting outcomes older patients an Emerge...

Pulsatile tinnitus is mostly a unilateral, rhythmic, pulse-synchronous sound of vascular origin. The approach in diagnostic and treatment protocols inconsistent unsystematic relevant literature. present study based on the world's largest systematically examined patient group.

In this study, a patient-specific carotid artery model was analyzed with an open source program foam-extend. The research includes the effect of arterial wall deformation by fluid-structure analysis. Pulsatile velocity cycle is trained for 144 patients different hemodynamic parameters, machine learning algorithm using blood flow measured from 337 points artery. Data used training obtained in li...

In a patient with no prior history of seizures we were able to record static (mean) intracranial pressure (ICP) and pulsatile ICP (mean ICP wave amplitude) continuously during a first-time generalized epileptic seizure. The patient experienced episodic headache five months after a subarachnoid haemorrhage. In order to rule out low-pressure hydrocephalus she was admitted for a 24-hour intracrani...

We have been developing a pulmonary circulatory assist device using shape memory alloy fibres for Fontan circulation. It consisted of several shape memory alloy fibres, which covered the ePTFE conduit circumferentially. We designed the sequential motion control system for pulsatile flow generation for sophisticated pulmonary hemodynamics. In order to achieve physiological pulsatile flow assista...

INTRODUCTION: Surgical site infection can occur after internal fixation of both open and closed fractures following internal fixation. Common methods of infection management include operative debridement and wound irrigation with a bulb syringe, or pressurized pulsatile lavage. The Versajet hydrosurgery tool appears to be an effective tool for debridement. Arecent study found that the Versajet ...
