Assessment of an Extracorporeal Liver Assist Device in Anhepatic Dogs
Artificial Organs - Tập 16 Số 4 - Trang 418-422 - 1992
Abstract: We have used an anhepatic dog model to demonstrate the efficacy of a
bioartificial liver assist device. Six dogs underwent total hepatectomy. Three
received only medical care (controls) while the remainder were connected to an
extracorporeal liver assist device (ELAD). The control dogs failed to regain
consciousness after anesthesia although all lived 4–5 h postoperativlely. Plasma
ammon...
The Hepatix Extracorporeal Liver Assist Device: Initial Clinical Experience
Artificial Organs - Tập 18 Số 5 - Trang 390-396 - 1994
Abstract: Eleven patients were treated with the Hepatix extracorporeal liver
assist device (ELAD) between June 1991 and August 1993. The first 2 patients
were treated according to Food and Drug Administration guidelines (“Emergency
Use of Unapproved Medical Devices,” October 22, 1985), and the remaining 9 were
treated according to an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE). The goal of the
study wa...
Higher Renal Replacement Therapy Dose Delivery Influences on Drug Therapy
Artificial Organs - Tập 27 Số 9 - Trang 808-814 - 2003
Abstract: Higher doses of renal replacement therapy have profound effects on
pharmacotherapy, yet little research has been conducted in this area.
High‐volume renal replacement therapies influence both the pharmacokinetic and
the pharmacodynamic profiles of all drugs administered to these critically ill
patients. Intermittent high‐dose “hybrid” hemodialysis therapies remove drugs to
a much differe...
Comparison of Sustained Hemodiafiltration With Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration for the Treatment of Critically Ill Patients With Acute Kidney Injury
Artificial Organs - Tập 34 Số 4 - Trang 331-338 - 2010
AbstractDespite improvements in medical care, the mortality of critically ill
patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) who require renal replacement therapy
(RRT) remains high. We describe a new approach, sustained hemodiafiltration, to
treat patients who suffered from acute kidney injury and were admitted to
intensive care units (ICUs). In our study, 60 critically ill patients with AKI
who require...
Hemodiafiltration: A New Alternative To Hemofiltration And Conventional Hemodialysis*
Artificial Organs - Tập 2 Số 2 - Trang 150-153 - 1978
ABSTRACTA new dialysis method, termed hemodiafiltration, is proposed. The
procedure consists of the combination of hemofiltration and conventional
hemodialysis using high flux membranes with a transmembrane pressure (TMP) of
300–500 mmHg and a dialysate flow of 900 ml/min. Due to the combination of
convective mass transfer and diffusion, the clearance values of both small and
larger molecules are ...
New Method to Calculate Creatinine Generation Rate Using Pre‐ and Postdialysis Creatinine Concentra tions
Artificial Organs - Tập 21 Số 8 - Trang 864-872 - 1997
Abstract: The creatinine (Cr) generation rate reflects the muscle mass, a
possible indicator of protein nutritional status. Thus, in this study, we
developed equations for calculating the Cr generation rate. Depner and Daugirdas
recently developed a method for determining the protein catabolic rate (PCR)
from the pre‐ and postdialysis blood urea nitrogen concentrations. We modified
their method to...
Artificial Organs - Tập 37 Số 3 - Trang 283-290 - 2013
AbstractThe estrogenic endocrine‐disrupting substance bisphenol A (BPA) is
extensively used as a starting material for a variety of consumer plastic
products including dialyzer materials. The present study was performed to
explore plasma BPA levels in patients with impaired renal function and to
investigate if dialyzers differing in elutable BPA influence plasma levels in
patients on maintenance h...
Effects of the External Qigong on Symptoms of Arteriosclerotic Obstruction in the Lower Extremities Evaluated by Modern Medical Technology
Artificial Organs - Tập 22 Số 8 - Trang 707-710 - 1998
The modern treatment strategy for arteriosclerotic obstruction (ASO), which
symptomatically appears primarily in the lower extremities, consists of drug and
interventional therapy. Reported herein are the effects of external qigong,
which has been a traditional therapeutic technique in the oriental countries for
a long time and is known to bring warmness in the body, evaluated by modern
medical te...
Structure and Dosimetric Analysis of Biodegradable Glasses for Prostate Cancer Treatment
Artificial Organs - Tập 27 Số 5 - Trang 432-436 - 2003
Abstract: This work analyzes SiO2 and SiO2‐CaO glasses incorporated with
samarium atoms produced by sol‐gel synthesis. The goal is to provide
biocompatible and biodegradable radioactive seeds as an alternative to be used
in brachytherapy for the treatment of prostate cancer. The chemical and physical
characteristics of the obtained glasses were analyzed by energy dispersive x‐ray
spectroscopy, x‐r...
Civilian Uses of Hemoglobin‐based Oxygen Carriers
Artificial Organs - Tập 28 Số 9 - Trang 795-799 - 2004
Abstract: This article briefly discusses a few key issues related to
transfusion, the concept of hemoglobin‐based red blood cell substitutes (HBOCs),
and some parameters useful in evaluating the current properties of solutions.
Potential uses of HBOCs in civilian applications are identified and listed. Use
of HBOCs as a hemodiluent for intraoperative autologous blood donation (IAD) is
a particula...
