Computational modeling of distal protection filters.
PURPOSE To quantify the relationship between velocity and pressure gradient in a distal protection filter (DPF) and to determine the feasibility of modeling a DPF as a permeable surface using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). METHODS Four DPFs (Spider RX, FilterWire EZ, RX Accunet, and Emboshield) were deployed in a single tube representing the internal carotid artery (ICA) in an in vitro f...
متن کاملIn vitro performance assessment of distal protection filters: pulsatile flow conditions.
PURPOSE To evaluate in vitro the capture efficiency of a distal protection filter (DPF) used during carotid artery stenting and examine the longitudinal vascular impedance in the presence of a DPF. METHODS Four approved DPFs (Spider RX, FilterWire EZ, RX Accunet, and FiberNet) were evaluated in a physiologically realistic in vitro setup. A pulsatile programmable piston pump circulated a blood...
متن کاملRole of distal protection devices
• Distal protection devices should be considered for patients requiring renal artery angioplasty to prevent renal atheroembolism. Discussion between the nephrologist and interventional radiologist (and other relevant specialists) regarding the benefits and harms of distal protection in this context is strongly encouraged. • Clinicians should recognize that the use of distal protection devices d...
متن کاملComputational Chemistry of Anthracene (PAH) Removal by SWNT Nano-filters: DFT
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (such as, anthracene, benzo[a]pyrene and so on) are non-polar, hydrophobic compounds, which are not ionized. They are only slightly soluble in water. They are very dangerous compounds in the environment. The single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) is used for removal and conversion of anthracene to low-risk products. In this study, electron transfer between anthrac...
متن کاملComputational modeling of dynamic decision making using connectionist networks
In this research connectionist modeling of decision making has been presented. Important areas for decision making in the brain are thalamus, prefrontal cortex and Amygdala. Connectionist modeling with 3 parts representative for these 3 areas is made based the result of Iowa Gambling Task. In many researches Iowa Gambling Task is used to study emotional decision making. In these kind of decisio...
