Reduction of Brain Shift in Neurosurgery
The accuracy and expertise needed for performing surgery in the cardiothoracic system and the central nervous system are demanding. The possibility of tissue damage while performing these surgeries are high and can lead to a life-threatening situations.
Causes of Brain Stroke in Patients with Heart Pumps
Our researchers analysed the fluid dynamics of the human circulatory system in order to understand what caused brain stroked in patients with heart pumps. Although prior to the implants, patients had low blood pressure, within a few months of getting the pumps. they became hypertensive, increasing their risk of a brain stroke.
