WeiterlesenAbstract The risk for left ventricular (LV) suction while maintaining adequate perfusion over a range of physiologic conditions during continuous flow LV assist device (LVAD) support is a significant clinical..
WeiterlesenAbstract The aim of the study was to test the use of gaseous nitric oxide added to the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) system for treating critical acute heart failure after..
WeiterlesenAbstract Background and objectives AKI is a common complication after pediatric cardiac surgery and has been associated with higher morbidity and mortality. We aimed to compare the efficacy of available pharmacologic..
WeiterlesenAbstract Mechanical blood-immersed bearings have been used in many continuous-flow rotary blood pumps to reduce friction between relatively moving parts, but their use has been associated with a significant incidence..
WeiterlesenAbstract Computational fluid dynamics find widespread application in the development of rotary blood pumps (RBPs). Yet, corresponding simulations rely on shear stress computations that are afflicted with limited resolution while..
