Nora Lang,Maria J. N. Pereira,Maria J. N. Pereira,Yuhan Lee,Ingeborg Friehs,Nikolay V. Vasilyev,Eric N. Feins,Klemens Ablasser,Eoin D. O'Cearbhaill,Chenjie Xu,Assunta Fabozzo,Robert F. Padera,Steve Wasserman,Franz Freudenthal,Lino Ferreira,Robert Langer,Jeffrey M. Karp,Pedro J. del Nido +17 more
TL;DR: The engineering of a bioinspired elastic and biocompatible hydrophobic light-activated adhesive (HLAA) that achieves a strong level of adhesion to wet tissue and is not compromised by preexposure to blood is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic Resonance–Guided Placement of Atrial Septal Closure Device in Animal Model of Patent Foramen Ovale
Arno Buecker,Elmar Spuentrup,R. G. Grabitz,Franz Freudenthal,Eberhard G. Muehler,Tobias Schaeffter,Joop J. van Vaals,Rolf W. Günther +7 more
TL;DR: The feasibility of applying magnetic resonance (MR) guidance for percutaneous closure of PFO in an animal model, thus avoiding the disadvantage of ionizing radiation, is tested.
Patent
Deployment device for cardiac surgery
TL;DR: In this paper, a deployment device for deploying a material into a patient, having a housing and a placement device including a retracted condition within the housing for holding a material, in a collapsed condition, within the Housing and an extended condition from the Housing for disposing and releasing the material at a predetermined site in an uncollapsed condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional echo and videocardioscopy-guided atrial septal defect closure.
Nikolay V. Vasilyev,Joseph F. Martinez,Franz Freudenthal,Yoshihiro Suematsu,Gerald R. Marx,Pedro J. del Nido +5 more
TL;DR: Beating-heart ASD closure can be achieved with combined RT3DE and videocardioscopy imaging and use of videocardiocopy provides high-resolution imaging and likely improves safety of the image-guided procedure.
