Puthettu M, Vandenberghe S, Balafas S, Di Serio C, Singjeli G, Pagnamenta A, et al.
PLoS One . 2024 Jan; 19(1):e0292669. PMID: 38194426
Although CO2 field-flooding was first used during cardiac surgery more than 60 years ago, its efficacy is still disputed. The invisible nature of the gas and the difficulty in determining...

Vandenberghe S, Singjeli G, Demertzis S
J Cardiothorac Surg . 2022 Jun; 17(1):164. PMID: 35733212
Objective: Space limitations during minimally invasive cardiac surgery impede consistent use of CO field-flooding. We compared different gas delivery methods, flow rates and the effect of patient inclination. Methods: A...

Puthettu M, Vandenberghe S, Bagnato P, Gallo M, Demertzis S
Cureus . 2022 Mar; 14(2):e22310. PMID: 35350483
Air emboli are reported to enter the cardiovascular system during cardiac surgery despite air-bubble filters in the arterial line of the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). A potential association with stroke, covert...

Kummer T, Rossi S, Vandenberghe S, Demertzis S, Jenny P
Cardiovasc Eng Technol . 2022 Mar; 13(5):764-782. PMID: 35292915
Purpose: External cardiac assist devices are based on a promising and simple concept for treating heart failure, but they are surprisingly difficult to design. Thus, a structured approach combining experiments...

Puthettu M, Vandenberghe S, Demertzis S
Cureus . 2022 Feb; 14(1):e21099. PMID: 35165558
Carbon dioxide (CO) field-flooding during cardiac surgery is a prevention technique to avoid blood-air contact and subsequent embolization. Although it was first used more than 60 years ago, there is...

Spirito A, Quagliana A, Coiro M, Melaku G, Vandenberghe S, Leibundgut G, et al.
EuroIntervention . 2022 Jan; 18(3):242-252. PMID: 34992050
Background: There is no established technique for managing large thrombus burden (LTB) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Aims: The aim of this study was to assess the safety...

Puthettu M, Vandenberghe S, Demertzis S
J Cardiothorac Surg . 2021 Jun; 16(1):181. PMID: 34162399
Background: During cardiac surgery, micro-air emboli regularly enter the blood stream and can cause cognitive impairment or stroke. It is not clearly understood whether the most threatening air emboli are...

Vandenberghe S, Iseli D, Demertzis S
J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg . 2019 Jun; 159(3):958-968. PMID: 31200936
Objective: Carbon dioxide field flooding during open-heart surgery is intended to avoid blood-air contact, bubble formation, and embolism, and therefore potential neurologic and other ischemic complications. The inert gas is...

Conti M, Vandenberghe S, Marconi S, Ferrari E, Romarowski R, Morganti S, et al.
Cardiovasc Eng Technol . 2018 Oct; 10(1):124-135. PMID: 30341729
Introduction: Endovascular treatments, such as transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), carry a risk of embolization due to debris dislodgement during various procedural steps. Although embolic filters are already available and...

Kamat P, Vandenberghe S, Christen S, Bongoni A, Meier B, Rieben R, et al.
PLoS One . 2016 Dec; 11(12):e0168541. PMID: 28002439
Calcium and iron overload participate in the mechanisms of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury during myocardial infarction (MI). Calcium overload induces cardiomyocyte death by hypercontraction, while iron catalyses generation of reactive oxygen...
