Recently, a new OCTARAY...
Mean voltage with the OCTARAY-L3 catheter (1.64 ± 0.57 mV) was 32.3% greater than that with the PENTARAY catheter (1.24 ± 0.46 mV, p < .0001) in total left atrium. Low-voltage-area (<0.50 mV) size wit...
The OCTARAY catheter demonstrated higher voltage recordings, narrower low-voltage areas, and a more efficacious mapping procedure than the PENTARAY catheter....
In this study, we conducted a numerical analysis on catheter sizes using computational fluid dynamics to assess urinary flow rates during intermittent catheterization (IC). The results revealed that t...
Catheter ablation of arrhythmias is now standard of care in invasive electrophysiology. Current ablation strategies are based on the use of thermal energy. With continuous efforts to optimize thermal ...
Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in the setting of tortuosity, calcification, and some types of coronary takeoffs can be challenging. In such cases, the choice of strategies that promote opti...
To review recently published data on pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) use in critically ill patients and consider optimal use of the PAC in personalized clinical practice....
Although PAC use has decreased considerably since the mid-1990s, PAC-derived variables can still have an important role in elucidating hemodynamic status and directing management in complex patients. ...
Only a small number of acutely ill patients require a PAC and insertion should be individualized based on clinical context, availability of trained staff, and the possibility that measured variables w...
More than 30% of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) and midline catheters experience complications. Most complications are related to thrombotic cellular adherence to catheter materials....
This manuscript outlines PICC and midline catheter complications, the need to reduce complications and how hydrogel catheters may provide a solution to address these unmet needs based on available evi...
Patients commonly require PICC or midline catheters for treatment to establish a reliable form of intravenous access. Catheters, while reliable in most cases, are not without complications, including ...
The transradial approach (TRA) has become popular for diagnostic cerebral angiography. However, this approach is still used less often because of problematic formation of the Simmons catheter. The pur...
This retrospective study included consecutive patients eligible for right TRA cerebral angiography at our institution from 2021. To introduce the technique, the cerebral angiogram of formation of the ...
In total, 295 cerebral angiographies were evaluated. There were 155 (52.5 %), 83 (28.1 %), 39 (13.2 %), and 18 (6.1 %) patients with types I, II, and III aortic arches and bovine arch, respectively. T...
Pigtail catheter exchange may be an effective and safe technique for right TRA cerebral angiography. The findings of this report prompted institutions to apply this technique clinically and can serve ...
Migration of guiding catheter during placement of hemodialysis femoral catheter is an unusual, early and rare mechanical complication. We report here the case of a 70-year-old man, admitted for severe...
Deep vein thrombosis is a common and serious complication associated with midline catheters (MC). The aim of this investigation was to determine if catheter diameter is related to development of throm...
This was an observational cohort study conducted at a tertiary care academic center in Southeastern Michigan. Hospitalized adults that required a MC were eligible participants. Primary outcome was sym...
Between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2021, 3088 MCs met inclusion criteria; the distribution of 3 French (Fr), 4 Fr, and 5 Fr MCs was 35.1 %, 57.0 %, and 7.9 %, respectively. The majority of the ...
Smaller diameter catheters should be preferentially chosen to mitigate the risk of thrombosis when therapy via midline catheters is required. Choosing a catheter based on reduced size or 1:3 catheter ...
The use of contact force (CF) sensing catheters has provided a revolutionary improvement in catheter ablation (CA) of atrial fibrillation (AF) in the past decade. However, the success rate of CA for A...
The TRUEFORCE trial (Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation using FireMagic TrueForce Ablation Catheter) is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm objective performance criteria study of AF patients...
A total of 120 patients (118 with paroxysmal AF) were included in this study, and 112 patients included in the per-protocol analysis. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) was achieved in 100% of the patient...
This study demonstrated the clinical feasibility of FireMagic force-sensing ablation catheter in CA of AF, with a satisfactory short- and long-term efficacy and safety....
