Ultra-high voltage, low power and energy recovering electronics for dielectric elastomer actuators

Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

Heart failure is a cardiovascular disease affecting between 1 and 2% of the population of developed countries alone - more than 10 million people - with this number bound to increase due to the ageing of the population. This condition starts to develop its ...

ECG-Based Indices to Characterize Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Before and During Stepwise Catheter Ablation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Etienne Pruvot

Background: Consistently successful patient outcomes following catheter ablation (CA) for treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation (pers-AF) remain elusive. We propose an electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis designed to (1) refine selection of patients most ...

A Computational Study of the Electrophysiological Substrate in Patients Suffering From Atrial Fibrillation

Alfio Quarteroni, Andrea Manzoni

In the context of cardiac electrophysiology, we propose a novel computational approach to highlight and explain the long-debated mechanisms behind atrial fibrillation (AF) and to reliably numerically predict its induction and sustainment. A key role is pla ...

Association of Heart Rate Variability With Silent Brain Infarcts in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Vincent Schlageter

Purpose: Silent brain infarcts (SBI) are frequently detected in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but it is unknown whether SBI are linked to autonomic dysfunction. We aimed to explore the association of autonomic dysfunction with SBI in AF patients. ...

Dynamics of Intraprocedural Dominant Frequency Identifies Ablation Outcome in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot, Alain Pithon

Background: The role of dominant frequency (DF) in tracking the efficiency of a stepwise catheter ablation (step-CA) in persistent atrial fibrillation (peAF) remains poorly studied. We hypothesized that the DF time-course during step-CA displays divergent ...

Implantable Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor for Continuous Heart Activity Monitoring: Ex-Vivo and In-Vivo Validation

Silvestro Micera

Continuous and reliable cardiac function monitoring could improve medication adherence in patients at risk of heart failure. This work presents an innovative implantable Fiber Bragg Grating-based soft sensor designed to sense mechanical cardiac activity. T ...

Computational methods for live heart imaging with speed-constrained microscopes

Olivia Mariani

Imaging methods to capture the beating and developing heart inside embryonic animal models such as the zebrafish are a key component for the study of fundamental biological processes such as cardiac birth defects or tissue regeneration. However, live heart ...

POD-Enhanced Deep Learning-Based Reduced Order Models for the Real-Time Simulation of Cardiac Electrophysiology in the Left Atrium

Alfio Quarteroni, Andrea Manzoni

The numerical simulation of multiple scenarios easily becomes computationally prohibitive for cardiac electrophysiology (EP) problems if relying on usual high-fidelity, full order models (FOMs). Likewise, the use of traditional reduced order models (ROMs) ...

Hardware-oriented pruning and quantization of Deep Learning models to detect life-threatening arrhythmias

Alexandre Schmid, Lizeth Gonzalez Carabarin

Wearable solutions based on Deep Learning (DL) for real-time ECG monitoring are a promising alternative to detect life-threatening arrhythmias. However, DL models suffer of a large memory footprint, which hampers their adoption in portable technologies. Th ...

Design and modelling of a tubular dielectric elastomer actuator with constrained radial displacement as a cardiac assist device

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Armando Matthieu Walter, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne

In this paper, we propose an improvement of a dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA) based augmented aorta. The actuator is a multi-layered tubular DEA subject to the internal pressure of the blood. When activated in synchronisation with the heart, the DEA su ...
