Design and Validation of a Soft Robotic Simulator for Transseptal Puncture Training.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Transseptal puncture (TP) is the technique used to access the left atrium of the heart from the right atrium during cardiac catheterization procedures. Through repetition, electrophysiologists and interventional cardiologists experienced i...

Detection of Left Atrial Myopathy Using Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Electrocardiography.

Circulation. Heart failure
BACKGROUND: Left atrial (LA) myopathy is common in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction and leads to the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). We investigated whether the likelihood of LA remodeling, LA dysfunction, altered ...

Deep Learning for Detection of Elevated Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressure Using Standard Chest X-Ray.

The Canadian journal of cardiology
BACKGROUND: To accurately diagnose and control heart failure (HF), it is important to carry out a simple assessment of elevated pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (PAWP). The aim of this study was to develop and validate an objective method for detect...

Transthoracic echocardiography monitoring during ASD closure using an artificial hand system.

Cardiovascular ultrasound
AIM: Continuous real-time echocardiographic monitoring is essential for guidance during ASD closure. However, transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) can only be implemented intermittently during fluoroscopy. We evaluate a novel approach to provide real...

Defining heterogeneity of epicardial functional stenosis with low coronary flow reserve by unsupervised machine learning.

Heart and vessels
Low CFR is associated with poor prognosis, whereas it is a heterogeneous condition according to the actual coronary flow, such as high resting or low hyperemic coronary flow, which should have different physiological traits and clinical implications....
