Cryoablation Fibroadenoma
The traditional management options available to women diagnosed with a fibroadenoma include surgical excision. In situ cryoablation has been developed and is less invasive than surgical excision.
Autologous Cultured Chondrocytes
The product is a cell therapy product used to repair articular cartilage injuries in adults not responded to a prior arthroscopic or surgical repair. The process involves the removal of healthy chondrocytes from the lesioned joint, cell-culture on a scafold and reintroduction over the lesion.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
A therapeutic fistula in the ilio-femoral region allows blood rich in oxygen to flow from the iliac artery to the iliac vein, thereby increasing the oxygen content of blood returning to the lungs.
Cryoablation Atrial Fibrillation
The safety and performance of a cryoablation system was evaluated in a long-term, prospective, randomized, multi-center study in patients with medically resistant, symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Neurostimulation
Particularly challenging is the management of patients with detrusor instability associated with urge incontinence or frequency-urgency syndrome ...... Equally difficult.... non-obstructive urinary retention.... with sacral neuromodulation, these patients.... regain volitional voiding function.
Neonatal Monitoring
Electronic fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring has evolved into the primary method of intrapartum fetal assessment, not just for high-risk pregnancies, but also for the general population.
AIDS
Because of the way CJC-1295 is engineered its half life had been extended from 7 minutes to greater than 7 days. Consequently, CJC-1295 injected 1-2 times per week results in elevated levels of Human Growth Hormone and IGF-1.
Multiple Sclerosis
MRI Studies.... suggest an organic relationship to chronic cerebral hydrostatic pressure changes associated with stenoses of the extracranial venous drainage system..... the potential value of venous angioplasty as a therapeutic measure in the treatment of MS.
Heart Failure
The concept in cardiac insufficiency involves a modification of the left heart geometry to improve the Frank-Starling characteristics of the myocardium.
Malignant Glioma
Of patients diagnosed with malignant gliomas, about half are alive 1 year after diagnosis, and 25% after two years.... a novel therapeutic approach: stereotaxic placeent of biodegradable 5-flourouricil microspheres in deeply situated non-operable tumors.
