  • This type of bypass surgery involves operating on the blood vessels connected to the heart by creating an additional channel to increase the blood flow in the area that is constricted, thus causing blood to move towards the heart with less resistance. (bumrungrad.com)
  • Current methods are slow, require specialized and expensive equipment like bioreactors, and are low throughput - meaning it's difficult to provide the needed supply of engineered vessels," says study co-author Daniel Heath, an ARC Future Fellow Associate Professor at the University of Melbourne, in a university release .

  • The article "Association Between Adverse Clinical Outcomes After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting and Perioperative Blood Transfusions" (2019;39[1]: 26-35) caught my attention. (aacnjournals.org)
  • If the surface of these fatty deposits breaks or ruptures, blood cells called platelets will clump at the site to try to repair the artery. (telehealthpharmacy.ie)
  • Over time, these fatty deposits will rupture or split, and the blood vessel will try to repair itself by forming a blood clot, which then further constricts the surrounding blood vessels. (bumrungrad.com)
  • Several randomized, controlled trials have assessed the efficacy of the upstream administration of tirofiban (Platelet Receptor Inhibition for ischemic Syndrome Management in Patients Limited to very Unstable Signs and symptoms [PRISM-PLUS] regimen) in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (ACS) (1,2) . (jacc.org)
  • Patients with a suspected acute coronary syndrome should be observed, with repeat 12 lead ECG recording, during symptoms if the opportunity arises. (bmj.com)
  • Symptoms that frequently occur in sepsis such as fever and tachycardia can reduce the coronary perfusion and increase the oxygen demand. (kauveryhospital.com)
