Abstract:
Hypotension and bradycardia are the most significant cardiovascular responses resulting from intracarotid injections of hypertonic contrast media (CM). We have assessed both local and systemic vascular responses to the selective intracarotid injections of ionic and non-ionic CM in twelve pentobarbital anesthetized dogs. Alterations in blood pressure, heart rate, and femoral, renal and carotid blood flows were monitored following right common carotid artery injections of ionic contrast media (282–288 mg I/ml), isotonic saline, and iohexol (300 mg I/ml). Ionic CM led to early (0 to 10 s) decreas

Abstract:
The carotid body is now looked at as a multipurpose sensor for blood gases, blood pH, and several hormones. The matter of glucose sensing by the carotid body has been debated for several years in the literature, and these days there is a consensus that carotid body activity is modified by metabolic factors that contribute to glucose homeostasis. However, the sensing ability for glucose is still being pondered: are the carotid bodies low glucose sensors or, in contrast, are they overresponsive in high-glucose conditions? Herein, we debate the glucose and insulin sensing capabilities of the caro

Abstract:
To test the hypothesis that, in response to an increase in placental vascular resistance and progressive fetal asphyxia, the changes in external carotid blood flow waveforms are directly related to changes in external carotid vascular resistance, we embolized the fetal side of the placenta in pregnant sheep and measured cerebral and external carotid artery circulatory changes in relation to changes in external carotid artery flow waveforms. Chronically catheterized fetal sheep at 0.85 of gestation were embolized ( n = 11) in the descending aorta for 6 h, until fetal arterial pH fell to ∼6.90.

The contribution of the splanchnic vascular bed in the carotid sinus baroreceptor reflex control of vascular resistance and capacity was studied in nine pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs. The splanchnic circulation was vascularly isolated in an unopened abdomen and perfused at constant flow and venous pressure. Decreasing carotid sinus pressure from 200 to 50 mmHg resulted in a 72% increase in splanchnic vascular resistance and a decrease in splanchnic blood volume of 4.7 ml/kg. Changes in splanchnic inflow from 0 to 70 ml.min-1.kg-1 resulted in linear changes in splanchnic arterial pressure. In

Dual antiplatelet therapy is needed after carotid artery stenting. Situations where antiplatelet agents also come into play are endovascular procedures associated with procedure-related thrombi.

Using this framework, the hemodynamics of the carotid artery was simulated with the patient-specific clinical data of the arterial geometry, pulsatile blood flow and blood rheology.

Drug-resistant hypertensive patients may be treated by stimulating baroreceptors located in the arterial walls of the internal carotid artery, specifically in the sinus region of the carotid artery bifurcation. To assess the ability of a custom implant design to stimulate baroreceptors by triggering them to fire and thereby reduce hypertension, the design was deployed within a patient based carotid bifurcation and FSI simulations were conducted. Results demonstrate the effect of such an implant on the arterial wall region where the baroreceptors are located. Localized wall contact and pulsatil

Abstract:
This manuscript investigates energy harvesting from arterial blood pressure via the piezoelectric effect for the purpose of powering embedded micro-sensors in the human brain. One of the major hurdles in recording and measuring electrical data in the human nervous system is the lack of implantable and long term interfaces that record neural activity for extended periods of time. Recently, some authors have proposed micro sensors implanted deep in the brain that measure local electrical and physiological data which is then communicated to an external interrogator. This paper proposes a way of p
