TL;DR: Smaller patient size, renal dysfunction, hepatic dysfunction, and biventricular assist device use were associated with mortality, whereas extracorporeal membrane oxygenation before implantation and congenital heart disease were not.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of Pulmonary Conduit Type and Size With Durability in Infants and Young Children
Jeffrey A. Poynter,Jeffrey A. Poynter,Pirooz Eghtesady,Brian W. McCrindle,Henry L. Walters,Paul M. Kirshbom,Eugene H. Blackstone,S. Adil Husain,David M. Overman,Erle H. Austin,Tara Karamlou,Andrew J.

TL;DR: Pulmonary conduit type and z-score are associated with late conduit durability independent of the effects of institution and subsequent interval procedures, and can improve long-term conduit durability by judiciously oversizing, and by selecting a JVVC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving the mechanical properties of chitosan-based heart valve scaffolds using chitosan fibers.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that chitosan fiber reinforcement can be used to achieve porous chitOSan scaffold strength approaching that of tissue, and that fiber length and mechanical properties are important parameters in defining the degree of mechanical improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chitosan fibers with improved biological and mechanical properties for tissue engineering applications
TL;DR: The investigated treatments offer numerous advantages over previous physical/chemical modifications and thus are expected to expand the utility of chitosan fibers with tunable mechanical properties in various tissue engineering applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
