Age-Associated Changes in Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels Within the Right Atrium Predispose the Elderly to Atrial Fibrillation (2022)
Thesis
Isaac, E. S. (2022). Age-Associated Changes in Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels Within the Right Atrium Predispose the Elderly to Atrial Fibrillation. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4508137

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia worldwide with sufferers of the condition facing significant morbidity and mortality. Ageing alone is identified as the most significant risk factor for developing the arrhythmia. As such...

Entering a new era of surgical training : developing 3-dimensional print models for hands-on surgical training and its introduction into the congenital cardiac surgical curriculum (2021)
Thesis
Hussein, N. (2021). Entering a new era of surgical training : developing 3-dimensional print models for hands-on surgical training and its introduction into the congenital cardiac surgical curriculum. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223672

Congenital heart surgery is a technically challenging subspecialty of cardiothoracic surgery. This is due to a combination of factors including the rarity and variety of pathology and the small patient size. This coupled with the increasing public sc...

In chapter 1, short and long term outcomes were assessed in diabetic phenotypes. The phenotypes have been propensity matched for factors that significantly contribute to outcomes. Tablet controlled diabetics have worse short and long term outcomes co... Read More about Myocardial energy metabolism in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

The differential in vitro effects of clinically used vasoactive drugs on small human pulmonary vessels (2017)
Thesis

Introduction: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an important prognostic factor in cardiac surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The mechanism of the underlying pathophysiology is complex and PH may exist prior to surgery or...

The effect of oxygen, temperature and hydrogen sulphide on the human pulmonary circulation (2014)
Thesis
