  1. 1. Teamarbetets betydelse för patientsäkerhet vid hjärtstopp : en litteraturöversikt

    Magister-uppsats, Sophiahemmet Högskola

    Författare :Moa Seve; Frida Vallström; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Cardiac arrest; Cardiopulmonary resuscitation; Teamwork; Patient Safety; Hjärtstopp; Resuscitering; Teamarbete; Patientsäkerhet;

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrund: Hjärtstopp kan drabba vem som helst, när som helst. Varje år drabbas cirka 6000 personer utanför sjukhus och 2500 personer på sjukhus. Behandling av patienter med hjärtstopp sker ofta under press där tid, omhändertagande och interventioner har betydelse för utfallet. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The functional anatomy of the crocodilian heart

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Författare :Jennifer Karlsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Anatomy; Cardiac right-to-left shunt; Cog-teeth-like valves; Crocodilian heart; Foramen of Panizza; Hemodynamics; Left aorta;

    Sammanfattning : Crocodiles are ectothermic, intermittent breathing reptiles with low metabolic rates. Additionally, they are diving animals that can stay submerged for long periods, which poses special demands on their cardiovascular system. The crocodilian heart is four-chambered with completely separated ventricles, making it unique among other reptiles. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Comparison of direct Fick's principle and thermodilution for calculating cardiac output in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.Does the assessment of cardiac index and pulmonary vascular resistance differ depending on which method is chosen?

    Master-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Författare :Gabriella Persson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Pulmonary arterial hypertension; cardiac output; direct Fick´s principle; thermodilution;

    Sammanfattning : Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is an uncommon but serious disease that causes increased pressure in the pulmonary vessels and increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), which in turn leads to right heart failure. At diagnosis, mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) must be >20 mmHg, pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) ≤15 mmHg and PVR >2 Wood units (WU). LÄS MER

  5. 4. Morphological characterization of the muscular ridge in non-crocodilian reptiles

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Författare :Wilma Sohlén; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Adaptation; Anatomy; Function; Haemodynamics; Muscular ridge; Reptiles; Shunting;

    Sammanfattning : The cardiovascular systems in ectothermic reptiles have long been studied and its development represent a transition state between a single- and a double circulation. This literature review focus on the typical-reptilian heart and therefore distinguishes between orders within the class of Reptilia. LÄS MER

  7. 5. BLOOD FLOW DYNAMICS IN IDEALIZED MODEL OF LEFT ATRIUM USING FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Författare :Marwin Haddad; Yonatan Noel Efrem; [2023]
    Nyckelord :finite element analysis; fluid mechanics; blood flow dynamics; cardiovascular anatomy;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular diseases, including heart failure, are a global health concern, necessitating advancements in non-invasive diagnostic tools and treatments. Computational modeling offers an invaluable approach to simulate and understand the intricacies of cardiac flow dynamics. LÄS MER
