One Technique to Modulate a Device Implantation Path in a Short Treatment Length Using the Gore IBE Device.

ABSTRACT: The GORE EXCLUDER Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis (IBE; W. L. Gore and Associates, Flagstaff, AZ, USA) applicability is limited by the aorto-iliac length (AOL). The shortage may be a major exclusion criterion. An 85-year-old male presented with an abdominal aortic and left common iliac arterial aneurysm. The left-side AOL was 146-mm, which was deemed 19-mm too short for IBE usage. To increase implantation length, the contra-lateral connection stent graft was deployed along the implantation line, wound half-circumferentially around the ipsilateral limb. Any form of endoleak, limb occlusion, and device migration has not been observed for twelve months.

Stroke and pump thrombosis following left ventricular assist device implantation: The impact of the implantation technique.

Project description:ObjectivesSeveral studies have shown the potential advantage of less-invasive surgery (LIS) for left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. This study aims to determine the impact of LIS on stroke and pump thrombosis events after LVAD implantation.MethodsBetween January 2015 and March 2021, 335 consecutive patients underwent LVAD implantation using either conventional sternotomy (CS) or the LIS technique. Patient characteristics was prospectively collected. All patients were followed up until October 2021. Logistic multivariate regression and propensity-matched analyses were performed to account for confounding factors.ResultsA total of 242 patients (F = 32; 13.0%) underwent LVAD implantation with CS and 93 patients (F = 8; 8.6%) with the LIS approach. Propensity matching generated two groups, including 98 patients in the CS group and 67 in the LIS group. Intensive care unit stay for the LIS group patients was significantly shorter than that for the CS group patients [2 (IQR: 2-5) days vs. 4 (IQR: 2-12) days, p < 0.01]. There were no significant differences in the incidence of stroke events (14% in CS vs. 16% in the LIS group; p = 0.6) or in pump thrombosis (6.1% in CS vs. 7.5% in the LIS group; p = 0.8) between the groups. The hospital mortality rate in the matched cohort was significantly lower in the LIS group (7.5% vs. 19%; p = 0.03). However, the 1-year mortality rate showed no significant difference between both groups (24.5% in CS and 17.9% in LIS; p = 0.35).ConclusionsThe LIS approach for LVAD implantation is a safe procedure with potential advantage in the early postoperative period. However, the LIS approach remains comparable to the sternotomy approach in terms of postoperative stroke, pump thrombosis, and outcome.

Optimized Axillary Vein Technique versus Subclavian Vein Technique in Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device Implantation: A Randomized Controlled Study.

Project description:BackgroundThe conventional venous access for cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) is the subclavian vein, which is often accompanied by high complication rate. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of optimized axillary vein technique.MethodsA total of 247 patients undergoing CIED implantation were included and assigned to the axillary vein group or the subclavian vein group randomly. Success rate of puncture and complications in the perioperative period and follow-ups were recorded.ResultsThe overall success rate (95.7% vs. 96.0%) and one-time success rate (68.4% vs. 66.1%) of punctures were similar between the two groups. In the subclavian vein group, pneumothorax occurred in three patients. The subclavian gaps of three patients were too tight to allow operation of the electrode lead. In contrast, there were no puncture-associated complications in the axillary vein group. In the patient follow-ups, two patients in the subclavian vein group had subclavian crush syndrome and both of them received lead replacement. The incidence of complications during the perioperative period and follow-ups of the axillary vein group and the subclavian vein group was 1.6% (2/125) and 8.2% (10/122), respectively (χ2 = 5.813, P = 0.016).ConclusionOptimized axillary vein technique may be superior to the conventional subclavian vein technique for CIED lead placement.Trial registrationwww.clinicaltrials.gov, NCT02358551; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02358551?term=NCT02358551& rank=1.

Lower Density Selection Schemes via Small Universal Hitting Sets with Short Remaining Path Length.

Project description:Universal hitting sets (UHS) are sets of words that are unavoidable: every long enough sequence is hit by the set (i.e., it contains a word from the set). There is a tight relationship between UHS and minimizer schemes, where minimizer schemes with low density (i.e., efficient schemes) correspond to UHS of small size. Local schemes are a generalization of minimizer schemes that can be used as replacement for minimizer scheme with the possibility of being much more efficient. We establish the link between efficient local schemes and the minimum length of a string that must be hit by a UHS. We give bounds for the remaining path length of the Mykkeltveit UHS. In addition, we create a local scheme with the lowest known density that is only a log factor away from the theoretical lower bound.

Same length, different shapes: ants collectively choose a straight foraging path over a bent one.

Project description:In socials insects, exploration is fundamental for the discovery of food resources and determines decision-making. We investigated how the interplay between the physical characteristics of the paths leading to food sources and the way it impacts the behaviour of individual ants affects their collective decisions. Colonies of different sizes of Lasius niger had access to two equal food sources through two paths of equal length but of different geometries: one was straight between the nest and the food source, and the other involved an abrupt change of direction at the midway point (135°). Both food sources were discovered simultaneously, but the food source at the end of the straight path was preferentially exploited by ants. Based on experimental and theoretical results, we show that a significantly shorter duration of nestbound travel on the straight path, which rapidly leads to a stronger pheromone trail, is at the origin of this preference.

Case report: A novel surgical technique for rapid valve-in-ring implantation into the native aortic annulus during left ventricular assist device implantation.

Project description:The implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has become an essential requirement for managing patients with end-stage heart failure. However, aortic valve insufficiency is a contraindication for LVAD implantation in patients with end-stage heart failure, partly because of the decreasing efficiency of mechanical circulatory support and the eventual development of right ventricular failure. Herein, we present the first case of performing transcatheter aortic valve replacement in valve-in-ring along with LVAD implantation for the treatment of a 60-year-old male suffering from refractory heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy and pure aortic insufficiency in need of a new aortic bioprosthesis. A balloon-expandable bioprosthetic transcatheter heart valve was implanted into a previously sewn annulus ring into the aortic root via transaortic access. Subsequently, a centrifugal-flow LVAD was implanted. Postoperatively, the patient was in New York Heart Association Functional Class (NYHA) II with 6-min walk test of 310 m. The patient has completed 6 months of follow-up with no events. This novel and feasible surgical technique reduced the cardiopulmonary bypass time and duration of surgery. Furthermore, it avoids the risk of redo sternotomy and decreases the chances of paravalvular leakage and worsening of aortic regurgitation.

Cardiac implantable electronic device implantation and device-related infection.

Project description:AimsCardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are important tools for managing arrhythmias, improving hemodynamics, and preventing sudden cardiac death. Device-related infections (DRI) remain a significant complication of CIED and are associated with major adverse outcomes. We aimed to assess the trend in CIED implantations, and the burden and morbidity associated with DRI.Methods and resultsThe 2011-2018 National Inpatient Sample database was searched for admissions for CIED implantation and DRI. A total of 1 604 173 admissions for CIED implantations and 71 007 (4.4%) admissions for DRI were reported. There was no significant change in annual admission rates for DRI (3.96-4.59%, P value for trend = 0.98). Those with DRI were more likely to be male (69.3 vs. 57%, P < 0.001) and have a Charlson comorbidity index score ≥3 (46.6 vs. 36.8%, P < 0.001). The prevalence of congestive heart failure (CHF) increased in those admitted with DRI over the observation period. Pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, and post-procedural hematoma were the most common complications in those with DRI (4.1, 3.6, and 2.90%, respectively). Annual in-hospital mortality for those with DRI ranged from 3.9 to 5.8% (mean 4.4%, P value for trend = 0.07). Multivariate analysis identified CHF [odds ratio (OR) = 1.67; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.35-2.07], end-stage renal disease (OR = 1.90; 95% CI = 1.46-2.48), coagulopathy (OR = 2.94; 95% CI = 2.40-3.61), and malnutrition (OR = 2.50; 95% CI = 1.99-3.15) as the predictors of in-hospital mortality for patients admitted with DRI.ConclusionDevice-related infection is relatively common and continues to be associated with high morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of DRI has not changed significantly despite technical and technological advances in cardiac devices and their implantation.

Seriation Using Tree-penalized Path Length.

Project description:Given a sample of n data points and an n by n dissimilarity matrix, data seriation methods produce a linear ordering of the objects, putting similar objects nearby in the ordering. One may visualize the reordered dissimilarity matrix with a heat map and thus understand the structure of the data, while still displaying the full matrix of dissimilarities. Good orderings produce heat maps that are easy to read and allow for clear interpretation. We consider two popular seriation methods, minimizing path length by solving the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), and Optimal Leaf Ordering (OLO), which minimizes path length among all orderings consistent with a given tree structure. Learning from the strengths and weaknesses of the two methods, we introduce a new hybrid seriation method, tree-penalized Path Length (tpPL). The objective is a linear combination of path length and the extent of violations of the tree structure, with a parameter that transitions the optimal paths smoothly from TSP to OLO. We present a detailed study over 44 synthetic datasets which are designed to bring out the strengths and weaknesses of the three methods, finding that the hybrid nature of tpPL enables it to overcome the weaknesses of TSP and OLO.
