  5. 4. Concept for Improvement of Afterload in an Ex Vivo Heart Evaluation System

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för teknik och samhälle (TS)

    Author : Ludvig Sjöberg; [2018]
    Keywords : afterload; heart evaluation; ex vivo heart perfusion; hjärtevaluering;

    Abstract : Hjärtevaluering är avsett för att öka antalet transplanterade donerade hjärtan med målet att bli standardbehandling i samband med hjärttransplantation. Anledningen till behovet av hjärtevaluering är att samtidigt som människor dör i väntan på ett nytt hjärta så kasseras donerade hjärtan på grund av osäkerhet kring deras förmåga att skapa tillräckligt blodtryck och -flöde i mottagarens kropp. READ MORE
