Background: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) provides hemodynamic support to patients with non-compressible truncal hemorrhage. As cardiac output increases due to aortic occlusion (AO), aortic diameter will increase as a function of compliance, potentially causing unintended flow around the balloon.
Materials And Methods: Swine (N = 10) were instrumented to collect proximal mean arterial blood pressure (pMAP), distal MAP (dMAP), balloon pressure (bP), balloon volume (bV), and distal aortic flow (Qaorta). A 7-Fr automated REBOA catheter was positioned in Zone 1. At T0, animals underwent 30% total blood volume hemorrhage over 30 min followed by balloon inflation to complete AO. Automated balloon inflation occurred from T30-T60 when Qaorta was detected. Period of interest was T55-T60, while the balloon actively worked to maintain AO during transfusion of shed blood.
Results: Median weight of the cohort was 73.75 [IQR:71.58-74.45] kg. During T40-T55 and T55-T60, median pMAP was 88.95 [IQR:76.80-109.92] and 108.13 [IQR:99.13-119.51] mmHg, = 0.07. Median Qaorta during T40-T55, and T55-T60 was 0.81 [IQR:0.41-0.96], and 1.53 [IQR:1.07-1.96] mL/kg/min, = 0.06. Median number of balloon inflations during T40-T55 was 0.00 [IQR:0.00-0.75] and increased during active transfusion to 10.00 [IQR:5.25-14.00], = 0.001.
Discussion: In clinical practice, following initial establishment of AO, progressive balloon inflations are required to maintain AO in response to intrinsic and transfusion-mediated increases in cardiac output, blood pressure, and aortic diameter.

Background: Cryoballoon ablation has been widely performed in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). In some challenging pulmonary veins (PVs), the procedure requires additional touch-up applications against the residual conduction gaps. It implies that there could exist difficult sites to cover with standard cryoballoon applications (CBAs), resulting in resistant conduction gaps (RCGs).

Hemodynamic stabilization is crucial in managing acute cardiac events, where compromised blood flow can lead to severe complications and increased mortality. Conditions like decompensated heart failure (HF) and cardiogenic shock require rapid and effective hemodynamic support. Current mechanical assistive devices, such as intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABP) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), offer temporary stabilization but are limited to short-term use due to risks associated with prolonged blood contact.

Background: Hemodynamically unstable pelvic ring fractures from high-energy trauma are critical injuries in trauma care, requiring urgent intervention and precise diagnostics. With ongoing advancements in trauma management, treatment strategies have evolved, with some techniques becoming obsolete as new ones emerge. This study aimed to evaluate changes and trends in treatment algorithms for these injuries over approximately 40 years.

Background And Objective: Cerebral aneurysms occur as balloon-like outpouchings in an artery, which commonly develop at the weak curved regions and bifurcations. When aneurysms are detected, understanding the risk of rupture is of immense clinical value for better patient management. Towards this, Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) studies can improve our understanding of the mechanics behind aneurysm initiation, progression, and rupture.

Introduction: Hypoalgesic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may provide critical insights into human abdominal pain. This condition was previously associated with homozygosity for a polymorphism (rs6795970, A1073V; 1073 val/val ) related to Na v 1.8, a voltage-gated sodium channel preferentially expressed on nociceptors.
