Patient-specific in silico 3D coronary model in cardiac catheterisation laboratories

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

However, their interpretation in cardiac catheterisation laboratories presently relies on sequentially evaluating multiple 2D image projections, which limits measuring lesion severity, identifying the true shape of vessels, and analysing quantitative data.

Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory Management of the Comatose Adult Patient With an Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association

Circulation

The cardiac catheterization laboratory plays an important role in the coordinated Chain of Survival for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Over the past few years, numerous trials have clarified the role of the cardiac catheterization laboratory in the management of resuscitated patients or those with ongoing cardiac arrest.

Association between Postprocedural Echocardiographic and Laboratory Data and Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Preserved Ejection Fraction after Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation

HeartRhythm

The HFA–PEFF score comprising echocardiographic and laboratory data is designed to diagnose heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and holds prognostic value in patients who underwent catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the incorporation of many variables into this score limits its practical use.

Outside the Laboratory Assessment of Upper Limb Laterality in Patients With Stroke: A Cross-Sectional Study

Stroke Journal

It needs to be answered, how laboratory-based assessments and everyday behavior are connected, which dimension of metrics, that is, volume, intensity, or quality, is most sensitive to reduced function, and what sensor, that is, gyroscope or accelerometer, is best suited to gather such data.METHODS:Performance in laboratory-based sensorimotor tests, (..)
