Venous Leg Ulcers
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page exploration of this painful condition. The author defines venous leg ulcers and emphasizes that the first step in addressing a leg ulcer is determining the precise kind of ulcer that one is dealing with. Non-venous ulcers might require a different treatment approach than venous ulcers. Malignant ulcers certainly demand a separate treatment regime. Venous ulcers benefit from treatment regimes that include compression. Surgery is also a valid option for treating these disorders. While the symptoms of venous leg ulcers can be quite severe, they can be alleviated to a degree by elevating the legs and exercising as is appropriate. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Some heart patients wear a defibrillator attached to them or a pacemaker implanted within them, others have ventricular assist devices. The purpose here is to discuss some of the ventricular assist devices available for use today and make suggestions for future research. The paper mentions several types of devices, discussing research and experience with left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) and biventricular assist devices (BVAD) in detail.

Ventricular Assist Devices Product Life Cycle
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing where ventricular assistive devices (VADs) currently reside on the product life cycle curve; what factors are likely to affect their growth; and how long producers can expect the product to be an active contributor to revenues. Recently approved by the FDA as an artificial heart, VADs are poised to become an end-goal product rather than only a bridge buying time until a heart can be found for transplant. The paper discusses costs and what producers can expect to gain from VADs over the next several years. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
