Small calibre polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane nanocomposite cardiovascular grafts: Influence of porosity on the structure, haemocompatibility and mechanical properties
TL;DR: This study fabricates a small diameter (<5mm) vascular graft from polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-poly(carbonate urea)urethane (POSS-PCU) via an extrusion, phase inversion method using an automated, custom built machine and evaluates haemocompatibility platelets and peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
Prevention of contrast-induced nephropathy in vascular patients undergoing angiography: a randomized controlled trial of intravenous N-acetylcysteine
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of intravenous Nacetylcysteine (NAC) on renal function in patients with vascular disease receiving radiographic contrast media (RCM) for angiography was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro stability of a novel compliant poly(carbonate-urea)urethane to oxidative and hydrolytic stress.
Henryk J. Salacinski,Nigel Tai,Robert J. Carson,Alan Edwards,George Hamilton,Alexander M. Seifalian +5 more
TL;DR: Results from this study indicate that CPU presents a far greater chemical stability than poly(ether)-urethane grafts do, resulting in a stress-free, viable, small-diameter, synthetic vascular graft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arterial Elastic Properties and Cardiovascular Risk/Event
TL;DR: D duplex estimation appears to be a non-invasive, accurate and reliable method of defining arterial elasticity and there is a good case for its use in clinical practice, particularly in the screening of patients at risk of cardiovascular events.
Journal ArticleDOI
In situ endothelialization potential of a biofunctionalised nanocomposite biomaterial-based small diameter bypass graft.
Achala de Mel,Geoffrey Punshon,Bala Ramesh,Sandip Sarkar,Arnold Darbyshire,George Hamilton,George Hamilton,Alexander M. Seifalian,Alexander M. Seifalian +8 more
TL;DR: Biofunctionalised nanocomposite polymer-based small diameter bypass graft demonstrated the potential for relatively rapid endothelialization from cells extracted from peripheral blood.
