Computational Analysis of Turbulent Hemodynamics in Radiocephalic Arteriovenous Fistulas to Determine the Best Anastomotic Angles

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara

Background: Hemodynamics has been known to play a major role in the development of intimal hyperplasia leading to arteriovenous fistula failure. The goal of our study is to investigate the influence of different angles of side-to-end radiocephalic anastomo ...

In Vitro and In Vivo Effectiveness of an Innovative Silver-Copper Nanoparticle Coating of Catheters To Prevent Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Infection

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Myriam Koumba Sarah Ballo

In this study, silver/copper (Ag/Cu)-coated catheters were investigated for their efficacy in preventing methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection in vitro and in vivo. Ag and Cu were sputtered (67/33% atomic ratio) on polyurethane cathe ...

A Feasability Study of Color Flow Doppler Vectorization for Automated Blood Flow Monitoring

Daniel Sage, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

An ongoing issue in vascular medicine is the measure of the blood flow. Catheterization remains the gold standard measurement method, although non-invasive techniques are an area of intense research. We hereby present a computational method for real-time m ...

An Injectable and Drug-loaded Supramolecular Hydrogel for Local Catheter Injection into the Pig Heart

Maartje Martina Cornelia Bastings

Regeneration of lost myocardium is an important goal for future therapies because of the increasing occurrence of chronic ischemic heart failure and the limited access to donor hearts. An example of a treatment to recover the function of the heart consists ...

Ultrafast laser ablation for targeted atherosclerotic plaque removal

Demetri Psaltis, Donald Benjaman Conkey, Thomas Jean Victor Marie Lanvin, Laurent Descloux

Coronary artery disease, the main cause of heart disease, develops as immune cells and lipids accumulate into plaques within the coronary arterial wall. As a plaque grows, the tissue layer (fibrous cap) separating it from the blood flow becomes thinner and ...

Catheter for sub-surface ablation in biological tissue

Demetri Psaltis, Jae-Woo Choi, Donald Benjaman Conkey, Thomas Jean Victor Marie Lanvin

The present invention concerns a subsurface laser-induced optical breakdown (LIOB) catheter including a probe assembly for providing at least one optical pulse to a subsurface target biological tissue site; and a waveguide for guiding the at least one opti ...

Prevention of Caval Collapse During Venous Drainage for CPB

Julien Favre

A new plastic self-expanding Smartcanula (Smartcanula LLC, Lausanne, Switzerland) is designed for central insertion and prevention of caval collapse. The objective of our work is to assess the influence of the new design on atrial chatter. Caval collapse o ...

A Fast pH-Switchable and Self-Healing Supramolecular Hydrogel Carrier for Guided, Local Catheter Injection in the Infarcted Myocardium

Maartje Martina Cornelia Bastings

Minimally invasive intervention strategies after myocardial infarction use state-of-the-art catheter systems that are able to combine mapping of the infarcted area with precise, local injection of drugs. To this end, catheter delivery of drugs that are not ...
