Decreased Cerebral Perfusion in Carotid Artery Stenosis, Carotid Angioplasty and Its Effects on Cerebral Circulation
Two major mechanisms are involved in cerebral ischemia (Mohr et al., 1997). Cerebral perfusion failure may occur as the result of flow reduction mediated by stenosis or occlusive vascular damage such as that arising from atheroma plaques that affect the carotid bulb. Perfusion failure affects the distal territories, and it is known as a watershed infarction. The second mechanism of cerebral isc...
متن کاملEffects of hypoxaemia and bradycardia on neonatal cerebral haemodynamics.
Near infrared spectroscopy has been used to assess the effects of bradycardia and hypoxia on the cerebral circulation in the premature neonate. The technique is well tolerated and can be applied in almost any infant. Continuous monitoring of changes in cerebral oxygenated, deoxygenated, and total haemoglobin is possible. Total haemoglobin is analogous to cerebral blood volume; thus information ...
متن کاملPatient-specific CFD simulation of intraventricular haemodynamics based on 3D ultrasound imaging
BACKGROUND The goal of this paper is to present a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model with moving boundaries to study the intraventricular flows in a patient-specific framework. Starting from the segmentation of real-time transesophageal echocardiographic images, a CFD model including the complete left ventricle and the moving 3D mitral valve was realized. Their motion, known as a function ...
متن کاملAutoregulation Modelling of Cerebral Haemodynamics
The Circle of Willis (CoW) is a ring-like structure of blood vessels found at the base of the brain. Its main function is to distribute a constant flow oxygen-rich arterial blood to the cerebral mass, despite changes in afferent pressures or flows. This objective is achieved by a local mechanism known as autoregulation, whereby the resistance in small vessels branching from the CoW changes by v...
متن کاملCerebral Aneurysm Clipping Surgery Simulation Using Patient-Specific 3D Printing and Silicone Casting.
BACKGROUND Neurosurgery simulator development is growing as practitioners recognize the need for improved instructional and rehearsal platforms to improve procedural skills and patient care. In addition, changes in practice patterns have decreased the volume of specific cases, such as aneurysm clippings, which reduces the opportunity for operating room experience. OBJECTIVE The authors develo...
