Titanium Surface Chemical Composition Interferes in the Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Formation
Abstract Bacterial adhesion on three different surfaces: untreated Ti, plasma nitriding, and plasma carbonitriding Ti substrates were investigated. The samples were placed in bacterial cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to assess biofilm formation. The correlation between the amount of bacteria attached to the surface after a lapse of time with nanotopography and physicochemical properties was performed. TiN showed the highest capacity to avoid bacterial adhesion, while presenting intermediate roughness and wettability. Although the surface of TiCN had the highest surface roughness and low contact angle (high wettability),...

Peripheral Artery Disease and Continuous Flow Left Ventricle Assist Device: An Engaging Complement Analysis May Help to Guide Treatment
We report the case of a 53‐year‐old man with HF secondary to ischemic cardiomyopathy supported by the HeartWare HVAD as bridge to transplant, who after the implant developed symptoms suggestive of PAD. We describe additional computational flow analysis for the study of PAD‐related hemodynamic disturbances induced by a CF‐LVAD. Flow simulations enhance the information of clinical image data, and may have an application in clinical investigations of the risk of hemodynamic disturbances induced by LVAD implantation.
