Extracorporeal circulation using heart-lung-machines is associated with a profound activation of corpuscular and plasmatic components of circulating blood, which can also lead to deleterious events such as systemic inflammatory response and hemolysis. Individual components used to install the extracorporeal circulation have an impact on the level of activation, most predominantly membrane oxygenators and hardshell venous reservoirs as used in extracorporeal systems. The blood flows in two different hardshell reservoirs are computationally investigated. A special emphasis is placed on the prediction of an onset of transition and turbulence generation. Reynolds-averaged numerical simulations (RANS) based on a transitional turbulence model, as well as large eddy simulations (LES) are applied to achieve an accurate prediction. In the LES analysis, the non-Newtonian behavior of the blood is considered via the Carreau model. Blood damage potential is quantified applying the Modified Index of Hemolysis (MIH) based on the predicted flow fields. The results indicate that the flows in both reservoirs remain predominantly laminar. For one of the reservoirs, considerable turbulence generation is observed near the exit site, caused by the specific design for the connection with the drainage tube. This difference causes the MIH of this reservoir to be nearly twice as large as compared to the alternative design. However, a substantial improvement of these performance criteria can be expected by a local geometry modification. 相似文献

The present work presents a numerical study of two axial ventricular assist devices (VADs) with two different designs. The geometry of the first design was inspired by DeBakey's rotary blood pump and the geometry of the second design is based on BioCirc’s pediatric VAD. The goal is to see which of the two designs has promising capabilities in terms of pressure differential, flow rate, and thrombosis before proceeding to deeper investigations. In this study a computational fluid dynamics tool was used to simulate and calculate the hemodynamics in the two investigated models. Both models were investigated for a flow rate of 5 L/min at rotational speeds between 10 000 and 15 000 rpm. 相似文献

We present quantum numerical methods for the typical initial boundaryvalue problems (IBVPs) of convection-diffusion equations in fluid dynamics. The IBVPis discretized into a series of linear systems via finite difference methods and explicittime marching schemes. To solve these discrete systems in quantum computers, wedesign a series of quantum circuits, including four stages of encoding, amplification,adding source terms, and incorporating boundary conditions. In the encoding stage,the initial condition is encoded in the amplitudes of quantum registers as a state vectorto take advantage of quantum algorithms in space complexity. In the following threestages, the discrete differential operators in classical computing are converted into unitary evolutions to satisfy the postulate in quantum systems. The related arithmeticcalculations in quantum amplitudes are also realized to sum up the increments fromthese stages. The proposed quantum algorithm is implemented within the open-sourcequantum computing framework Qiskit [2]. By simulating one-dimensional transientproblems, including the Helmholtz equation, the Burgers’ equation, and Navier-Stokesequations, we demonstrate the capability of quantum computers in fluid dynamics. 相似文献

We produced experimental models of pancreatic end-to-end anastomosis, including ductal end-to-end anastomosis (with or without
stent) and pancreaticojejunostomy, using mongrel dogs, with a view to evaluating reconstructive procedures after segmental
pancreatectomy. We examined macroscopic findings, pancreatograms, and microangiographic and histopathological findings to
determine whether pancreatic end-to-end anastomosis was as practicable as pancreaticojejunostomy. Macroscopic findings showed
no suture failure in any animal in the end-to-end anastomosis group. Pancreatography revealed obstruction of the stent tube
in the stent subgroup, but good patency in the no-stent subgroup. On the imaging of the microvasculature in the end-to-end
anastomosis group, proliferation of neovascular vessels and formation of communicating vessels were detected. Histopathologically,
no suture failure was detected, and the viability of the pancreatic end-to-end anastomosis was confirmed. From this experiment,
we concluded it that it was possible to employ pancreatic end-to-end anastomosis after segmental pancreatectomy in the clinical
situation.

We have developed a tiny rotary centrifugal blood pump for the purpose of supporting circulation of children and infants. The pump is designed to provide a flow of 0.1-4.0 L/min against a head pressure of 50-120 mm Hg. The diameter of the impeller is 30 mm with six straight vanes. The impeller is supported by a hydrodynamic bearing at its center and rotated with a radial coupled magnetic driver. The bearing that supports rotation of the impeller of the tiny centrifugal blood pump is very critical to achieve durability, and clot-free and antihemolytic performance. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis was performed to quantify the secondary flow through the hydrodynamic bearing at the center of the impeller and investigated the effects of bearing clearance on shear stress to optimize hemolytic performance of the pump. Two types of bearing clearance (0.1 and 0.2 mm) were studied. The wall shear stress of the 0.1-mm bearing clearance was lower than that of 0.2-mm bearing clearance at 2 L/min and 3000 rpm. This was because the axial component of the shear rate significantly decreased due to the narrower clearance even though the circumferential component of the shear rate increased. Hemolysis tests showed that the normalized index of hemolysis was reduced to 0.0076 g/100 L when the bearing clearance was reduced to 0.1 mm. It was found that the CFD prediction supported the experimental trend. The CFD is a useful tool for optimization of the hydrodynamic bearing design of the centrifugal rotary blood pump to optimize the performance of the pump in terms of mechanical effect on blood cell elements, durability of the bearing, and antithrombogenic performance. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: There is increasing evidence that paediatric kidneys transplanted to adults have good graft function and satisfactory graft survival. The relationship between size increment and functional potential of paediatric kidneys following transplantation is not defined in detail. We therefore initiated a prospective single centre study, comprising detailed and repeated measurements of size and function of paediatric kidneys transplanted to adults. METHODS: Nineteen adults receiving a first kidney transplant from a paediatric donor (<10 years of age) were included in the study. All patients were followed for 12 months post-transplant. Increment in size and function of the transplanted kidneys were assessed by ultrasound, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF). All tests were performed during the first week, post-transplant and subsequently repeated at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months. RESULTS: Kidney volume increased 2.6-fold at 12 months (P < 0.001). GFR and ERPF showed a slightly more moderate increase, 1.8-fold and 1.6-fold, respectively. Patient and graft survival at 1 year were 100% and serum creatinine was 91 micromol/l (66-169). CONCLUSION: The study indicates that paediatric kidneys for transplantation may be considered as excellent rather than being referred to as suboptimal for adult recipients, at least the first year after transplantation. 相似文献

Summary
Objective. To study the posibilities of the microsurgical management of ruptured intracranial aneurysms with the sole preoperative information
provided by computed tomography angiography with three-dimensional reconstruction (3D-CTA).
Methods. Patients were studied with 3D-CTA after diagnosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage. If the study had an adequate quality and revealed
an aneurysm congruent with the clinical findings or neurological examination and/or with the location of the bleeding on computed
tomography (CT) scan an early microsurgical clipping of the lesion was done. When the quality of the 3D-CTA study was not
adequate or the quality being adequate displayed no lesions or the findings were not accurate enough to warrant direct microsurgical
treatment, the patient was studied with cerebral digital substraction (DS) angiography. A total of 44 consecutive patients
harbouring a total of 47 intracranial aneurysms diagnosed by 3D-CTA and without preoperative DS angiography were submitted
to microsurgical clipping and included in the study.
Results. The overall mortality was 15.9% and the favourable results evaluated 6 months after discharge by means of the Glasgow Outcome
Scale reached 70.4%. All lesions were successfully clipped. Surgery was done a mean of 4.1 days after the admission bleeding.
A total of four microlesions undiagnosed by 3D-CTA were found at surgery and clipped. Postoperative DS angiography and necropsy
findings were also used as control of the 3D-CTA findings but no additional information was provided excepting the finding
in DS angiography of an asymptomatic intracavernous aneurysm. Therefore the sensitivity of the 3D-CTA for diagnosis of symtomatic
aneurysms was 100% and the overall sensitivity 90.4%.
Conclusions. We have reached similar results in patients operated on with or without preoperative angiography. 3D-CTA provides very valuable
anatomical information, which has an additional value in the microsurgical treatment of aneurysms of the anterior communicating
artery complex. Finally, selected cases of ruptured intracranial aneurysms can be successfully managed with the preoperative
information provided by 3D-CTA and without DS angiography. 相似文献

Background
Survival for patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma is reported to range from only 5–8 months without treatment. Systemic
chemotherapy has not been shown to significantly improve survival, but newer regimens involving gemcitabine have shown increased
response rates. Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) has been shown to prolong survival in hepatocellular carcinoma
patients, but experience using TACE in the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma is limited. We report our experience treating cholangiocarcinoma
with TACE using chemotherapeutic regimens based on the well-tolerated drug gemcitabine.
Methods
Forty-two patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma were treated with one or more cycles of gemcitabine-based TACE at
our institution. Chemotherapy regimens used for TACE included: gemcitabine only (n = 18), gemcitabine followed by cisplatin (n = 2), gemcitabine followed by oxaliplatin (n = 4), gemcitabine and cisplatin in combination (n = 14), and gemcitabine and cisplatin followed by oxaliplatin (n = 4).
Results
Patients were 59 years of age (range 36–86) and received a median of 3.5 TACE treatments (range 1–16). Thirty-seven patients
(88%) had central cholangiocarcinoma, and five (12%) had peripheral tumors. Nineteen patients (45%) had extrahepatic disease.
Grade 3 adverse events (AEs) after TACE treatments were seen in five patients, whereas grade 4 AEs occurred in two patients.
No patients died within 30 days of TACE. Median survival from time of first treatment was 9.1 months overall. Results did
not vary by patient age, sex, size of largest initial tumor, or by the presence of extra-hepatic disease. Treatment with gemcitabine–cisplatin
combination TACE resulted in significantly longer survival (13.8 months) compared to TACE with gemcitabine alone (6.3 months).
Conclusions
Our report represents the largest series to date regarding hepatic-artery-directed therapy for unresectable cholangiocarcinoma
and provides evidence in favor of TACE as a promising treatment modality in unresectable cholangiocarcinoma. Our results suggest
that gemcitabine-based TACE is well tolerated and confers better survival when given in combination therapy (with cisplatin
or oxaliplatin) for patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma.
