Journal ArticleDOI
Outcome of survivors of accidental deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest treated with extracorporeal blood warming.
Beat H. Walpoth,B N Walpoth-Aslan,Heinrich Mattle,Bogdan P. Radanov,Gerhard Schroth,L Schaeffler,A. Fischer,L von Segesser,Ulrich Althaus +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that young, otherwise healthy people can survive accidental deep hypothermia with no or minimal cerebral impairment, even with prolonged circulatory arrest, and cardiopulmonary bypass appears to be an efficacious rewarming technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long term performance of polycaprolactone vascular grafts in a rat abdominal aorta replacement model
Sarra de Valence,Jean-Christophe Tille,Damiano Mugnai,Wojciech Mrówczyński,Robert Gurny,Michael Möller,Beat H. Walpoth +6 more
TL;DR: Issues with degradable vascular grafts that cannot be identified with short implantation times or in vitro studies are presented and should allow for better design of next generationascular grafts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation and Healing Characteristics of Small-Diameter Poly(ε-Caprolactone) Vascular Grafts in the Rat Systemic Arterial Circulation
Erman Pektok,Benjamin Nottelet,Jean-Christophe Tille,Robert Gurny,Afksendiyos Kalangos,Michael Moeller,Beat H. Walpoth +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, small-diameter vascular grafts made of PCL nanofibers were compared with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) grafts.
Journal ArticleDOI
A three-layered electrospun matrix to mimic native arterial architecture using polycaprolactone, elastin, and collagen: a preliminary study.
TL;DR: The results indicated that a graft can be designed to mimic a tri-layered structure by altering layer properties, and showed how changes in layer stiffness affect the overall circumferential wall stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrospun polydioxanone–elastin blends: potential for bioresorbable vascular grafts*
Scott A. Sell,Michael J. McClure,Catherine P. Barnes,D C Knapp,Beat H. Walpoth,David G. Simpson,Gary L. Bowlin +6 more
TL;DR: Electrospinning of the PDO and elastin-blended composite into a conduit for use as a small diameter vascular graft has extreme potential and warrants further investigation as it thus far compares favorably to native vessel.
