Their visibility during imaging allows for the precise expansion of stents at the site of blockage, thereby enhancing the restoration of blood flow and reducing the likelihood of restenosis. Influence on Rehabilitation The strategic application of medical rings during angioplasty plays a crucial role in patient recovery and long-term health results. ...
Background: This paper describes a challenging case of implantation of the EluNIR™ Ridaforolimus eluting elastomeric stent (Medinol Ltd.). This complex case involved a patient with a flow-limiting lesion in a native coronary artery post bypass surgery. The new EluNIR stent system includes a stent with a low metal footprint that comprises struts of variable width: ultra-narrow struts ...

Background This paper outlines the first in-patient implantation of the EluNIR™ ridaforolimus eluting elastomeric stent (Medinol Ltd.). This complex case involved a patient with a flow-limiting lesion in a native coronary artery post bypass surgery. The new EluNIR stent system includes a stent with a low metal footprint which comprises struts of variable width: ultra-narrow struts having ...

The heart is a unique organ in many respects since its activity is mandatory to sustain life. The heart’s circulatory system and coronary flow regulation are highly adapted to the vital role of the heart in sustaining life and to everyday physiological challenges. Understanding coronary physiology is key for treating patients with ischemic heart disease in general, and ...
Every year, surgeons perform a lower-limb amputation due specifically to diabetes on approximately 73,000 patients in the US alone. Annually there are over 1 million limb amputations worldwide. Most of these amputations are performed for the treatment of non-healing diabetic foot ulcers that resulted from PAD (Peripheral Arterial Disease). These non-healing foot ulcers are caused by high blood ...
While heart attack, cardiac arrest and heart failure can sometimes be related, they’re actually three very different types of cardiac emergencies. Cardiac arrest, heart attack and heart failure — three terms that are familiar to most people, but often get confused with one another. While there can be some overlap between them in terms of cause and effect, they are actually three ...
The SynCardia TAH is pumped and monitored by an external machine called a driver, which produces pulses of air and vacuum that help pump blood in and out of the ventricles. 3. ...
Amsterdam, the Netherlands – Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG; AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire Vesper Medical Inc., a US-based medical technology company that develops minimally-invasive peripheral vascular devices. Vesper Medical will further expand Philips’ portfolio of diagnostic and therapeutic devices ...
October 6, 2021—Surendra Shenoy, MD, presented findings from a first-in-human (FIH) evaluation of the Amplifi vein dilation system (Artio Medical, Inc.), which is a small, wearable blood pump device that dilates arm veins before arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation. Amplifi is designed to improve AVF eligibility, reduce maturation failure, reduce time to maturation, and prolong primary ...
ABSTRACT Infection of prosthetic vascular grafts can manifest as pain, pseudoaneurysms, or arterial insufficiency in the leg. We present the case of a female patient with a medical history of a right external iliac artery endofibrosis, with a persistently infected synthetic iliofemoral bypass graft, which we replaced with a bioengineered human acellular vessel. At the 12-month follow-up visit, ...
