𝐀 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐲 𝐄𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐑𝐀𝐌𝐄 𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐕𝐞𝐢𝐧 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐬 A group of investigators led by Jaroslav Chlupac from the Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine (IKEM) Hospital, Czech Republic, published excellent research on the mechanism of action of FRAME external support. The study compared FRAME-supported autologous internal jugular vein grafts to unsupported vein grafts in a porcine carotid artery interposition model. At a 1-month follow-up, 100% of FRAME-supported grafts were patent, compared to 43% for the controls. FRAME-supported vein grafts also showed significantly fewer areas of stenosis and higher blood flow rates at explantation compared to the controls. 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: "In our porcine model, the external mesh FRAME improved the patency of vein-to-carotid artery grafts and protected them from stenosis, particularly in the mid regions. The mid-graft neo-intimal hyperplasia was two-fold thinner in the meshed grafts than in the controls." https://lnkd.in/ghh57FZh CARDION #ExternalSupport #InnovationInHealthcare

🌟 𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐞𝐰𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞 - 𝐂𝐲𝐩𝐫𝐮𝐬 🌟 We are thrilled to announce that last week at 𝗡𝗶𝗰𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗮 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗼𝘀𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹, the first VEST (VEST - Venous External Support) implantations were successfully performed. The CABG procedure involved three-vessel grafting: LIMA to the LAD, 𝐒𝐕𝐆 + 𝐕𝐄𝐒𝐓 to the RCA and 𝐒𝐕𝐆 + 𝐕𝐄𝐒𝐓 to the OM. Congratulations to our dedicated cardiac surgery team at Nicosia General Hospital for their expertise and commitment to excellence: 𝗗𝗿. 𝗘𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗸𝗶𝘀 𝗘𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗸𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗼𝘀, 𝗗𝗿. 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘀 𝗧𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘀 and 𝗗𝗿. Andreas Paschalis. The adoption of VEST technology in the market marks the advancements made in cardiac surgery. Medelixi LTD #CABG #CardiacSurgery #InnovationInHealthcare

𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑪𝑨𝑩𝑮 𝑵𝒆𝒘𝒔! External Stenting for Saphenous Vein Grafts Reduce Early Postoperative Graft Failure. An elegant, prospective comparative study involving 357 patients and 572 vein grafts has demonstrated for the first time that VEST - Venous External Support reduces early post-operative vein graft failure. A big thank you to the team in Zurich, led by Omer Dzemali, Prof. Dr. med. Dr. h.c., for their groundbreaking work: Stak Dushaj, Achim Häussler, Laura Rings,MD, Dr. med. MSc Vasileios Ntinopoulos, MEBCTS, Prof. Dr. Nestoras Papadopoulos, Dragan Odavic, PD Dr. med. Héctor Rodríguez Biefer. https://lnkd.in/dpFGesF5 #CABG #ExternalSupport #CardiacSurgery

🇪🇸 ¡Viva España! 🇪🇸 What an incredible week it has been for VEST - Venous External Support in Spain! Our journey started in Bilbao with insightful meetings at Hospital Universitario Basurto, followed by a meeting with the new chief, Dr. Alejandro Crespo de Hubsch. MD, at Hospital Universitario Cruces - OSI Ezkerraldea Enkarterri Cruces. Excitingly, Dr. Crespo is ready to perform his first VEST implantation! From Bilbao, we traveled to Barcelona for a department meeting at Hospital Can Ruti (Hospital Universitari Germans Trias i Pujol). It was a pleasure to meet with the new department chief, Dr. Elisabeth Berastegui, and her incredible team. They are enthusiastic about the latest VEST data and are committed to continuing their support, with more implants on the horizon. Immediately after the department meeting at Can Ruti, we rushed to the operating room at Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge, where Dr. Daniel Ortiz Berbel performed an off-pump 4xCABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Graft) procedure. Lima to the LAD and three saphenous vein grafts (SVG's) to arterial targets, all three SVG’s were supported with VEST, and Flow/Pulsatility-Index results were great. Our journey in Spain has been filled with collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to advancing cardiovascular care. We're grateful for the warm welcome and look forward to furthering our partnerships across the country. Mercé V Electromedicina Carlos Sempere Santos Javier Arbona Castano @Maria Jose Landa
