  2. Endovascular coiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endovascular_coiling

    Endovascular coiling is an endovascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms and bleeding throughout the body. The procedure reduces blood circulation to an aneurysm or blood vessel through the implantation of detachable platinum wires, with the clinician inserting one or more into the blood vessel or aneurysm until it is determined that blood flow is no longer occurring within the space.

  3. Intraventricular hemorrhage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraventricular_hemorrhage

    The lack of blood flow results in cell death and subsequent breakdown of the blood vessel walls, leading to bleeding. While this bleeding can result in further injury, it is itself a marker for injury that has already occurred. Most intraventricular hemorrhages occur in the first 72 hours after birth. [9]

  4. Sweep and prune - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweep_and_prune

    In physical simulations, sweep and prune is a broad phase algorithm used during collision detection to limit the number of pairs of solids that need to be checked for collision, i.e. intersection. This is achieved by sorting the starts (lower bound) and ends (upper bound) of the bounding volume of each solid along a number of arbitrary axes. As ...

  5. Intracerebral hemorrhage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intracerebral_hemorrhage

    Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), also known as hemorrhagic stroke, is a sudden bleeding into the tissues of the brain (i.e. the parenchyma), into its ventricles, or into both. [3] [4] [1] An ICH is a type of bleeding within the skull and one kind of stroke (ischemic stroke being the other).

  6. Emergency bleeding control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_bleeding_control

    External bleeding is generally described in terms of the origin of the blood flow by vessel type. The basic categories of external bleeding are: Arterial bleeding: As the name suggests, blood flow originating in an artery. With this type of bleeding, the blood is typically bright red to yellowish in colour, due to the high degree of oxygenation.

  7. Endovascular aneurysm repair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endovascular_aneurysm_repair

    After a few years, the survival after repair is similar to EVAR or open surgery. This observation may be the result of durability problems with early endograft, with a corresponding need for additional procedures to repair endoleaks and other device-related issues. Newer, improved technology may reduce the need for such secondary procedures.

  8. Subdural hematoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subdural_hematoma

    Chronic subdural bleeds develop over a period of days to weeks, often after minor head trauma, though a cause is not identifiable in 50% of patients. [11] They may not be discovered until they present clinically months or years after a head injury. [25] The bleeding from a chronic hematoma is slow and usually stops by itself.

  9. Bronchial artery embolization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronchial_artery_embolization

    Spinal Cord Infarction after Bronchial Artery Embolization for Hemoptysis: A Nationwide Observational Study in Japan - This study used Japan's DPC healthcare database to determine the incidence of spinal cord infarction after BAE, revealing a rate of 0.19%. The incidence varied depending on the embolic material, with significantly lower rates ...
