  1. 6. UV laser patterning of silicone-based soft electrode grids

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Maria Jakobsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Soft electrodes; Wearable electrodes; UV laser; Laser ablation; Laser curing; Polydimethylsiloxane; PDMS; Silver flakes; Teknisk biologi; Teknisk biologi;

    Abstract : Roughly 123 million people worldwide are affected by conditions such as epilepsy, dementia, and cardiovascular diseases. Wearable electrodes are currently used to monitor these conditions short-term. Long-term monitoring would allow for predicting seizures and could be used as a preventive treatment. READ MORE

  3. 7. Validation of Simultaneous T1 and T2 Mapping Using Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting in Self-Constructed Phantoms : An Analysis of the Reproducibility and Accuracy

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

    Author : Sasithon Meesan; [2023]
    Keywords : Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting cMRF ; Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging CMR ; Simultaneous T1 and T2 Mapping; Validation; Accuracy; Reproducibility; Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting cMRF ; Kardiovaskulär Magnetresonans CMR ; Simultant T1 och T2 Parametrisk-Karaktärisering; Validering; Noggrannhet; Reproducerbarhet;

    Abstract : Quantitative cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) has gained traction within both the clinical and research field due to high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases. Cardiac magnetic resonance fingerprinting (cMRF) is a novel approach introduced to address the limitation associated with evaluation of multiparametric quantitative CMR. READ MORE

  4. 8. Effect of cardiovascular diseases on the severity of patients with renal failure

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Abdulla Hil Kafi; [2023]
    Keywords : Chronic Kidney Disease; Cardiovascular disease; Meta-analysis; Odds ratio;

    Abstract : Chronic kidney disease greatly raises cardiovascular disease risk. Heart disease and death risk grow proportionately with renal disease progression. Investigate the link between cardiovascular disease prevalence and chronic renal disease severity and mortality using meta-analysis. READ MORE

  5. 9. Assessing the market possibilities and productization of ambulatory ECG-devices in the Business to Consumer space

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Produktionsekonomi

    Author : Morgan Bryer; Anton Palmén; [2023]
    Keywords : ECG; Ambulatory ECG; Medical technology; remote monitoring; B2M.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : There is currently a shift in the healthcare sector moving towards remote monitoring, meaning that monitoring of diseases and other issues is moving out of hospitals and into people's homes with the use of medical technology. One of the fastest-growing at-home monitoring solutions is the ECG device, especially due to the fact that cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. READ MORE

  6. 10. Testing Coagulation Potential of Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Aortic Stenosis Patients on Human Cardiac Spheroids

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Muhammad Nafiz Ikhwan Bin Nor Fuad; [2023]
    Keywords : Extracellular vesicles; human aortic endothelial cells; tissue factor; TNFα; coagulation pathway; cardiac spheroids;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases have always been the leading cause of global morbidity and mortality. Aortic stenosis, which is a kind of cardiovascular disease has a high prevalence in elderlies that are 75 years and older. Currently, the only available treatment would be valve replacement surgery.
