Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a temporary lifesaving treatment for critically ill patients with severe respiratory or cardiac failure. Studies demonstrated the feasibility of in-hospital mobilizing during and after ECMO preventing neuromuscular weakness impaired physical functioning. Despite more compact mobile devices, implementation ambulatory remains labor-intensive, complex, challenging. It requires large multidisciplinary team to carry equipment, monitor physically...
Not only the flow of liquid through vasculature, but also external fluid flows can affect organization and maturation vessels.
The impact of fluid flow shear stresses, generated by the movement blood through vasculature, on organization and maturation vessels is widely recognized. Nevertheless, it remains uncertain whether external flows outside vasculature in surrounding tissue can similarly play a role governing these processes. In this research, we introduce an innovative technique called superfusion-induced vascular steering (SIVS). SIVS involves controlled imposition patterns onto vascularized chick...
