Implementation of an epicardial implantable MEMS sensor for continuous and real-time postoperative assessment of left ventricular activity in adult minipigs over a short- and long-term period
The sensing of left ventricular (LV) activity is fundamental in the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular health in high-risk patients after cardiac surgery to achieve better short- and long-term outcome. Conventional approaches rely on noninvasive me ...
Aip Publishing2024Who says you are so sick? An investigation on individual susceptibility to cybersickness triggers using EEG, EGG and ECG
In this research paper, we conducted a study to investigate the connection between three objective measures: Electrocardiogram(ECG), Electrogastrogram (EGG), and Electroencephalogram (EEG), and individuals' susceptibility to cybersickness. Our primary obje ...
2024Effect of the structural modification of Candesartan with Zinc on hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Augusto Martins Lima, Valeria Romina Martinez
Hypertension is the most common cause of left ventricular hypertrophy, contributing to heart failure progression. Candesartan (Cand) is an angiotensin receptor antagonist widely used for hypertension treatment. Structural modifications were previously perf ...
ELSEVIER2023A comprehensive mathematical model for cardiac perfusion
Alfio Quarteroni, Francesco Regazzoni, Christian Vergara
The aim of this paper is to introduce a new mathematical model that simulates myocardial blood perfusion that accounts for multiscale and multiphysics features. Our model incorporates cardiac electrophysiology, active and passive mechanics, hemodynamics, v ...
Berlin2023Design and computational optimization of compliance-matching aortic grafts
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia
Introduction: Synthetic vascular grafts have been widely used in clinical practice for aortic replacement surgery. Despite their high rates of surgical success, they remain significantly less compliant than the native aorta, resulting in a phenomenon calle ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2023Efficient approximation of cardiac mechanics through reduced-order modeling with deep learning-based operator approximation
Alfio Quarteroni, Andrea Manzoni
Reducing the computational time required by high-fidelity, full-order models (FOMs) for the solution of problems in cardiac mechanics is crucial to allow the translation of patient-specific simulations into clinical practice. Indeed, while FOMs, such as th ...
Hoboken2023Compliance-matching vascular grafts with personalization potential
Aortic diseases are characterized by dire prognosis and inadequate diagnosis, owing to their insidious yet lethal nature. Aortopathies, namely aortic aneurysms and dissections, along with certain congenital diseases, might necessitate surgical replacement ...
EPFL2023Hemodynamic effects of a dielectric elastomer augmented aorta on aortic wave intensity: An in-vivo study
Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Francesco Clavica, Armando Matthieu Walter, Silje Ekroll Jahren, Lorenzo Ferrari
Dielectric elastomer actuator augmented aorta (DEA) represents a novel approach with high potential for assisting a failing heart. The soft tubular device replaces a section of the aorta and increases its diameter when activated. The hemodynamic interactio ...
2023Mitochondrial Creatine Kinase Attenuates Pathologic Remodeling in Heart Failure
Yi Zhang, Annina Stuber, Ashish Gupta
BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in cardiac energy metabolism occur in heart failure (HF) and contribute to contractile dysfunction, but their role, if any, in HF-related pathologic remodeling is much less established. CK (creatine kinase), the primary muscle ene ...
LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS2022A novel soft cardiac assist device based on a dielectric elastomer augmented aorta: An in vivo study
Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Francesco Clavica, Armando Matthieu Walter, Silje Ekroll Jahren, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne, Lorenzo Ferrari
Although heart transplant is the preferred solution for patients suffering from heart failures, cardiac assist devices remain key substitute therapies. Among them, aortic augmentation using dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) might be an alternative tech ...
