  1. 6. Pre-hospital time and mortality in patients who receive in-hospital resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of aorta (REBOA) : -a retrospective analysis using the ABOTrauma registry

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Victor Karlsson Valentin; [2022]
    Keywords : REBOA; Pre-hospital; Time; Mortality; Retrospective;

    Abstract : Introduction: Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) is an endovascular technique for temporarily stabilizing hemodynamically unstable patients until permanent interventions can be performed. The benefits of in-hospital REBOA to control hemorrhage in different areas is now well studied, yet little is known about its use and indications in the pre-hospital setting. READ MORE

  3. 7. GAN-based Automatic Segmentation of Thoracic Aorta from Non-contrast-Enhanced CT Images

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Libo Xu; [2021]
    Keywords : Non-contrast-enhanced; Medical Image Segmentation; Image-to-image Translation; U-Net; Generative Adversarial Network; End-to-end; Two-stage;

    Abstract : The deep learning-based automatic segmentation methods have developed rapidly in recent years to give a promising performance in the medical image segmentation tasks, which provide clinical medicine with an accurate and fast computer-aided diagnosis method. Generative adversarial networks and their extended frameworks have achieved encouraging results on image-to-image translation problems. READ MORE

  4. 8. Exploring Deep Learning Frameworks for Multiclass Segmentation of 4D Cardiac Computed Tomography

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för hälsa, medicin och vård

    Author : Norman Janurberg; Christian Luksitch; [2021]
    Keywords : Computed Tomography; Multiclass Segmentation; Image Segmentation; 4D; Deep Learning; MONAI; Unet; Cropping network; Multiaxis Segmentation;

    Abstract : By combining computed tomography data with computational fluid dynamics, the cardiac hemodynamics of a patient can be assessed for diagnosis and treatment of cardiac disease. The advantage of computed tomography over other medical imaging modalities is its capability of producing detailed high resolution images containing geometric measurements relevant to the simulation of cardiac blood flow.

  5. 9. REBOA - have mortality and complications changedover time? : - A comparison between years 2011-2015 and 2016-2020

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Gabriella Ruborg; [2021]
    Keywords : REBOA; Trauma; Hemorrhage; Mortality; Complications;

    Abstract : Introduction Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) is an invasivetechnique aimed at stabilizing hemodynamically unstable patients. The technique is underconstant development and in 2016 a new REBOA balloon requiring a smaller sized sheathwas introduced aiming to decrease complications and mortality. READ MORE

  6. 10. Modelling development of ECMO return flow in bifurcating arteries

    University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

    Author : Friederike Schäfer; [2021]
    Keywords : Fluid Mechanics; CFD; ECMO;

    Abstract : Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) is a life saving therapy for critically ill patients experiencing a heart and lung failure. During this therapy, a common complication is limb ischemia in the leg where the return cannula reintroduces the oxygenated blood to the patient. READ MORE
