Roses are red, violets are blue Here is a simulated heart just for you. Happy Valentine's day, ❤ Ansys.

We promised Victorians that we'd build a dedicated Victorian Heart Hospital. We said it'd be the very first in the country. And today, we opened it.

Fibrin sheath(s) during & after #ECMO run 🩸 white deposits on ML ⚙️ high ML resistances 🩸 severe, persistent (& unexplained) drainage insufficiency Be suspicious & monitor for complications also after decannulation... Just out #FOAMcc on asaiojournal 🔓 bit.ly/43AeJa2

In the #impostersyndrome we discount what we know and inflate what we think other people know. You know more than you think. Others know less than you think. You're not an imposter. #impostersyndrome #phdchat #ECRchat #PhdForum

Effect of flow & position on lighthouse tip #ECMO return cannula: 🩸tilted cannula reinfused larger amount of fluid through side holes on narrow side vs wide, but fraction of reinfused fluid not influenced by flow rate ratio 🩸small recirculating vortexes developed on narrow

Dear friends and colleagues, It is with overwhelming sadness that we share news of the death of our colleague, mentor and friend, Rinaldo Bellomo. During recent days, both he and his family have received dedicated, expert and compassionate care from some of the finest in our ICU

Under development by Cornell Engineering researcher James Antaki for over 30 years, PediaFlow is a device designed to save the lives of infants with heart defects and allow newborns to go home with their families while awaiting surgery or a transplant. But shortly after receiving a $6.7
