Influence of patient-specific rehearsal on operative metrics and technical success for endovascular aneurysm repair
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Introduction: Patient-specific rehearsal (PsR) is a recent technology within virtual reality (VR) simulation that lets the operators train on patient-specific data in a simulated environment prior to the procedure. ... -
A probabilistic function to model the relationship between quality of chest compressions and the physiological response for patients in cardiac arrest
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Cardiopulmonary resuscitation quality (CPRQ) parameters can be derived from electric signals obtained during resuscitation. We propose to model a probabilistic relationship between CPRQ parameters and the physiological ... -
