Objective: The objectives of this study were to evaluate an automated device for ventilatory support based on AMBU manufactured in March 2020.
Methods: The ESSI-1 INC was evaluated through pulmonary mechanics and physiology parameters through compensatory spirometer tests (TISSOTs), and an artificial lung Model5600i Dual Adult PNEU VIEW SYSTEM; it was also compared to the anesthetic ventilatory support equipment (AEONMED 7500) in porcine models, measuring ventilatory, hemodynamic and gasometric parameters.
Results: This equipment (ESSI-1 INC) was successfully tested by mechanical and biological models, such as pigs in which its performance was evaluated in terms of variability of tidal volume, ventilation frequency, and I/E relationship versus the manual performance of two medical interns.
Introduction: Heart valve bioprostheses are the gold standard for aortic valve surgical replacement in selected patients.
Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the National Institute of Cardiology (INC) bioprosthetic heart valve in humans.
Methods: Single-center study that included 341 patients who underwent single surgical aortic valve replacement with INC heart valve.
