LV-MEMS

Hypertension / Lv Hypertrophy

s S55 Eur J Echocardiography Abstracts Supplement, December 2006 analysed by 2 separate observers. TOE and RT-3DE images were acquired digitally on the Phillips IE33 ultrasound machine and stored for off line analysis. The RT-3DE datasets were analysed with Phillips Qlab software (version 4.0). Leaflet segments and commissures were displayed in short axis en-face and long axis views. Echocardio...

LV switchgear: functions & selection

10 Lv 174-183

Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is one of the most frequently used plasma substitutes. Recent studies have indicated that HES may reduce capillary leakage. The present in vivo study was performed to investigate the effects of HES on pulmonary capillary permeability, inflammatory mediators, and transcription factors in sepsis. Septic rats induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) were treated with ...

New Design of Mems piezoresistive pressure sensor

The electromechanical analysis of a piezoresistive pressure microsensor with a square-shaped diaphragm for low-pressure biomedical applications is presented. This analysis is developed through a novel model and a finite element method (FEM) model. A microsensor with a diaphragm 1000 „m length and with thickness=400 µm is studied. The electric response of this microsensor is obtained with applyi...

Lv Pseudoaneurysm - An Unprecedented Condition

Pseudoaneurysms (false) aneurysms usually develop when cardiac rupture is contained by preexisting adhesion of the pericardium .These lesions are rare and can be distinguished from true aneurysms by a narrow neck which is devoid of myocardial elements in the walls 6-10 .The complication of pseudoaneurysm like angina ,left ventricular failure , embolization and arrythymias are similar to that of...
