• Femoral Nailing in a Porcine Model Causes Bone Marrow Emboli in the Lungs and Systemic Emboli in the Heart and Brain 

      Kristiansen, Steinar; Jarmund, Anders Hagen; Hilmo, Jonas Larsen; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Leth-Olsen, Martin; Nyrnes, Siri Ann; Nilsen, Bent Aksel; Grønli, Renathe Henriksen; Faldaas, Bjørn Ove; Storm, Benjamin Stage; Espenes, Arild; Nielsen, Erik Waage (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)
      Background: Shaft fractures of the femur are commonly treated with intramedullary nailing, which can release bone marrow emboli into the bloodstream. Emboli can travel to the lungs, impairing gas exchange and causing ...
    • Hands-free continuous carotid Doppler ultrasound for detection of the pulse during cardiac arrest in a porcine model 

      Faldaas, Bjørn Ove; Nielsen, Erik Waage; Storm, Benjamin; Lappegård, Knut Tore; How, Ole-Jakob; Nilsen, Bent Aksel; Kiss, Gabriel Hanssen; Skogvoll, Eirik; Torp, Hans; Ingul, Charlotte Ingeborg Björk (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Background/Purpose Pulse palpation is an unreliable method for diagnosing cardiac arrest. To address this limitation, continuous hemodynamic monitoring may be a viable solution. Therefore, we developed a novel, hands-free ...
    • Real-time feedback on chest compression efficacy by hands-free carotid Doppler in a porcine model 

      Faldaas, Bjørn Ove; Nielsen, Erik Waage; Storm, Benjamin Stage; Lappegård, Knut Tore; Nilsen, Bent Aksel; Kiss, Gabriel Hanssen; Skogvoll, Eirik; Torp, Hans; Ingul, Charlotte Ingeborg Björk (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)
      Aim: Current guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) recommend a one-size-fits-all approach in relation to the positioning of chest compressions. We recently developed RescueDoppler, a hands-free Doppler ultrasound ...
