چکیده
Description Implant device and delivery system. The Ventricular Partitioning Device (VPD) is an intraventricular Implant that is deployed in the Left Ventricle (LV) in patients with regional wall motion abnormalities following myocardial infarction (MI). The implant device is delivered via a guiding catheter and delivery system introduced percutaneously from the femoral artery by the standard techniques for left heart catheterization. The implant device is an ePTFE membrane bonded to an expanded NiTi frame in the configuration of an inverted umbrella. (Figure 1) The stem of the umbrella is positioned in the apex of the

Urgent Surgical Intervention for Embolized Cardiac Occluder Devices: A Case Series
Introduction: In this study, we sought to illustrate our experience in urgent surgical management for embolized cardiac septal occlude devices resulting from trans-catheter closure of atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect. Mathrials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed four patients aged 2–10 years who underwent urgent surgery due to cardiac septal occluder embolization between...

(A) Before the procedure, large residual ventricular septal shunts could be seen between the occluder and the peak of apex (Online Video 1). (B) After the procedure, the shunts decreased significantly (Online Video 2). LV 1⁄4 left ventricle; RV 1⁄4 right ventricle. A 58-year-old man with exertional dyspnea (New York Heart Association class II) was admitted to our hospital. He suffered from acut...
متن کاملDesign an Equivalent Left Ventricular Assist Device for Medical Equipment Labs
LVAD is a mechanical pump supporting a weak heart function and blood flow. Sometimes, the heart may not recover fast enough to take over the pumping action immediately after surgery, in such patients a temporary support device has been employed to maintain the pumping action until the patient’s own heart recovers. This device can be considered as a temporary alternative before the process of ar...

In this approach, the Left ventricular assist pump for patients with left ventricular failure isused. The failure of the left ventricle is the most common heart disease during these days. Inthis article, a State feedback controller method is used to optimize the efficiency of a samplingpump current. Particle Swarm Algorithm, which is a set of rules to update the position andvelocity, is applied...
متن کاملCONGENITAL HEART DISEASE Transcatheter closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defects with the Amplatzer asymmetric ventricular septal defect occluder: preliminary experience in children
Objective: To close perimembranous ventricular septal defects (PMVSDs) in children with the new Amplatzer asymmetric ventricular septal defect occluder (AAVSDO). Patients and design: 10 children, aged 1.5–12 years, with PMVSDs underwent transcatheter closure with the AAVSDO. The device consists of two low profile disks made of Nitinol wire mesh with a 1.5 mm connecting waist. The left disk is 5...
