  2. Stent-electrode recording array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stent-electrode_recording...

    Stentrode (Stent-electrode recording array) is a small stent-mounted electrode array permanently implanted into a blood vessel in the brain, without the need for open brain surgery. It is in clinical trials as a brain–computer interface (BCI) for people with paralyzed or missing limbs, [ 1 ] who will use their neural signals or thoughts to ...

  3. Endovascular and hybrid trauma and bleeding management

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endovascular_and_hybrid...

    Stent grafts, or endo-grafts, are a more permanent solution in the hemodynamically unstable patient and are an important part of the tool kit for EVTM. They are self-expanding artificial reconstructions of vessels with fabric coating deployed inside the original vessel and help to gain temporary control, stop the hemorrhage and repair the ...

  4. Drug-eluting stent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug-eluting_stent

    The major benefit of drug-eluting stents (DES) when compared to bare-metal stents (BMS) is the prevention of in-stent restenosis (ISR). [70] Restenosis is a gradual re-narrowing of the stented segment that occurs most commonly between 3–12 months after stent placement. [ 119 ]

  5. Coronary stent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_stent

    The vast majority of stents used in modern interventional cardiology are drug-eluting stents (DES). They are used in a medical procedure called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Coronary stents are divided into two broad types: drug-eluting and bare metal stents. As of 2023, drug-eluting stents were used in more than 90% of all PCI ...

    Chimney: In TEVAR, a covered stent placed from the ascending aorta to a great vessel (e.g., innominate artery) and adjacent to the main body of the EVAR is termed a chimney. In anatomic position, blood flows superiorly through a chimney-stent graft into the great vessel, just as smoke flows up a chimney.

    This leads to varices in the esophagus and stomach, which can bleed; B) a needle has been introduced (via the jugular vein) and is passing from the hepatic vein into the portal vein; c) the tract is dilated with a balloon; D) after placement of a stent, portal pressure is normalized and the coronary and umbilical veins no longer fill.

  9. Digital subtraction angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_subtraction...

    Intravenous digital subtraction angiography (IV-DSA) is a form of angiography which was first developed in the late 1970s.. IV-DSA is a computer technique that compares an X-ray image of a region of the body before and after radiopaque iodine based dye has been injected intravenously into the body.
