Use of an Implanted Sacral Nerve Stimulator to Restore Urine Voiding in Chronically Paraplegic Dogs

Background Loss of urinary control after spinal cord injury increases risk of urinary tract disease and is problematical for owners of affected dogs. Objectives To design, implant, and test a sacral nerve stimulating device for controlling urine voiding in ...

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 ...

A Microchannel Neuroprosthesis for Bladder Control After Spinal Cord Injury in Rat

Stéphanie Lacour, Ivan Rusev Minev, Katherine Marie Musick

A severe complication of spinal cord injury is loss of bladder function (neurogenic bladder), which is characterized by loss of bladder sensation and voluntary control of micturition (urination), and spontaneous hyperreflexive voiding against a closed sphi ...

Culture and Characterization of Human and Porcine Urothelial Progenitor Cells

Hans Mattias Larsson

An estimated 400 million people worldwide suffer from bladder diseases. However, little is known at the cellular level as to what causes or initiates many of these diseases. Therefore, this thesis has focused on understanding one cell type within the bladd ...

Contribution of Left and Right Atrial Appendage Activities to ECG Fibrillation Waves

Jean-Marc Vesin, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

It was recently shown that atrial fibrillation (AF) waves on chest lead V1 adequately reflect right atrial appendage (RAA) activity during long standing persistent AF (pers-AF). The contribution of the left atrial (LA) activity to chest leads AF waves, how ...

Screening of the factors influencing frictional interactions between a cylindrical tip and the cardiac wall using factorial analysis

Hannes Bleuler, Giulio Rognini, Lionel Flaction, Bandar Muntazar Hakim

Knowledge of frictional forces acting on the tips of minimally invasive medical devices is important in the design and simulation of such devices. Moreover, several studies have shown that uncontrolled frictional forces can induce damage to organs. The goa ...

High-density collagen gel tubes as a matrix for primary human bladder smooth muscle cells

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Lionel Ambroise Micol

Tissue-engineered grafts for the urinary tract are being investigated for the potential treatment of several urologic diseases. These grafts, predominantly tubular-shaped, usually require in vitro culture prior to implantation to allow cell engraftment on ...

Hydrogels for Urinary Tract Tissue Engineering

Lionel Ambroise Micol

Several urinary tract disorders, such as hypospadias or bladder cancer, require reconstructive surgery to preserve the patient's quality of life and at times even save their life. The current available surgical treatments, involving grafts from other tissu ...

In vivo study of an injectable poly(acrylonitrile)-based hydrogel paste as a bulking agent for the treatment of urinary incontinence

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Lionel Ambroise Micol

Urinary incontinence can be treated by endoscopic injection of bulking agents, however, no optimal therapeutic effect has been achieved upon this treatment yet. In the present study, the development of a injectable poly(acrylonitrile) hydrogel paste is des ...

Endoscopic Fluorescence Imaging

Blaise Lovisa

Since several decades, the physicians are able to access hollow organs with endoscopic methods, which serve both as diagnostic and surgical means in a wide range of disciplines of the modern medicine (e.g. urology, pneumology, gastroenterology). Unfortunat ...
