ECMO et transplantation cardiaque

P. Leprince, C. D’Alessandro, S. Aubert, S. Varnous, more

ECLS et ECMO > Indications Circulatoires > 137-146

En attente de greffe, l’utilisation de l’ECMO, sur un patient stabilisé sous ECMO, peut permettre la transplantation avec des résultats identiques à ceux obtenus dans les autres situations, à condition d’être suffi samment intransigeant sur la qualité de la stabilisation. L’ECMO est le traitement de référence des formes sévères de défaillance primaire du greffon après transplantation cardiaque. De...

245 Identifying needs in education for children aged 7–8 y and their parents

V. David, P. Leger, F. You, D. Chevalier, more

Journal of Cystic Fibrosis > 2015 > 14 > Supplement 1 > S121

Patient education must be focused on patients’ needs. We want to deeply examine the needs of children aged 7–8 y and their parents in order to propose collective or individual educative sessions, focused on their needs. The establishment of these needs can be obtained by an “educative diagnosis” (ED). For the children, it is a playful and interactive interview, generally conducted by a psychologist...

290 Dietary forcing and conflicts during meals for children suffering from cystic fibrosis: The psychologist's point of view

P. Leger, V. David, A. Le Rhun, D. Chevalier

Journal of Cystic Fibrosis > 2015 > 14 > Supplement 1 > S132

With cystic fibrosis, a good nutritional state is linked to a good breathing condition. The child's weight must be carefully monitored. This might lead to dietary forcing behaviors from the parents. It creates conflicts during the meals, resulting in eating disorders and insufficient weight gains. How to avoid this vicious circle? Collective therapeutic education sessions are offered to parents...

Payment card forensic analysis: From concepts to desktop and mobile analysis tools

T. Souvignet, J. Hatin, F. Maqua, D. Tesniere, more

Digital Investigation > 2014 > 11 > 3 > 143-153

While one would not even consider them alike, payment cards are one of the most valuable and widely used embedded systems. Payment card systems are probably the most attacked and counterfeited. In fact, even though the use of smart cards have introduced high security capabilities, criminal activity has not been deterred and payment card fraud remains a lucrative activity.From low-tech (carding) to...

M. Robinson, C. Collins, P. Leger, J. Carsten, more

2013 8th International Conference on System of Systems Engineering > 153 - 158

2013 8th International Conference on System of Systems Engineering (SoSE)

The Robotic Arm (RA) has operated for more than 200 Martian solar days (or sols) since the Mars Science Laboratory rover touched down in Gale Crater on August 5, 2012. During the first seven months on Mars the robotic arm has performed multiple contact science sols including the positioning of the Alpha Particle X-Ray Spectrometer (APXS) and/or Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) with respect to rocks or...

2013 8th International Conference on System of Systems Engineering > 184 - 189

2013 8th International Conference on System of Systems Engineering (SoSE)

The Mars Science Laboratory Robotic Arm (RA) is a key component for achieving the primary scientific goals of the mission. The RA supports sample acquisition by precisely positioning a scoop above loose regolith or accurately preloading a percussive drill on Martian rocks or rover-mounted organic check materials. It assists sample processing by orienting a sample processing unit called CHIMRA through...

A randomized, controlled, double‐blind prospective trial with a Lipido‐Colloid Technology‐Nano‐OligoSaccharide Factor wound dressing in the local management of venous leg ulcers

Sylvie Meaume, François Truchetet, Frédéric Cambazard, Catherine Lok, more

Wound Repair and Regeneration > 20 > 4 > 500 - 511

Venous leg ulcers (VLUs) are the most prevalent chronic wounds in western countries with a heavy socioeconomic impact. Compression therapy is the etiologic treatment of VLU but until now no wound dressing has been shown to be more effective than another. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of a new dressing in the management of VLU. Adult patients presenting a noninfected VLU and receiving...

Current trends in microsatellite genotyping

E. GUICHOUX, L. LAGACHE, S. WAGNER, P. CHAUMEIL, more

Molecular Ecology Resources > 11 > 4 > 591 - 611

Microsatellites have been popular molecular markers ever since their advent in the late eighties. Despite growing competition from new genotyping and sequencing techniques, the use of these versatile and cost‐effective markers continues to increase, boosted by successive technical advances. First, methods for multiplexing PCR have considerably improved over the last years, thereby decreasing genotyping...

Two highly validated multiplexes (12‐plex and 8‐plex) for species delimitation and parentage analysis in oaks (Quercus spp.)

E. GUICHOUX, L. LAGACHE, S. WAGNER, P. LÉGER, more

Molecular Ecology Resources > 11 > 3 > 578 - 585

Multiplex PCR is a fast and cost‐effective technique allowing increased genotyping throughput of microsatellites. We developed two multiplexes for Quercus petraea and Q. robur, a 12‐plex of EST‐SSRs (eSSRs) and an 8‐plex of genomic SSRs (gSSRs). We studied the origin of allele calling errors at the human reader and software levels. We showed that the robustness of allele identification can be improved...

Effective strategies for real time hybrid simulation of near seismic collapse response of moment resisting frames

M. Leclerc, M. Molinari, N. Bouaanani, R. Tremblay, more

Proceedings of the 2011 American Control Conference > 3307 - 3314

2011 American Control Conference - ACC 2011

Reliable assessment of seismic performance of structural systems requires accurate and robust simulation techniques that can efficiently predict inelastic response in the large deformation range, up to structural collapse. This paper presents a real-time dynamic substructuring (RTDS) test program carried out on steel moment resisting frames (MRF) tested up to near collapse. A single-story, industrial...

Comparison between real‐time dynamic substructuring and shake table testing techniques for nonlinear seismic applications

C.‐P. Lamarche, R. Tremblay, P. Léger, M. Leclerc, more

Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics > 39 > 12 > 1299 - 1320

Results from real‐time dynamic substructuring (RTDS) tests are compared with results from shake table tests performed on a two‐storey steel building structure model. At each storey, the structural system consists of a cantilevered steel column resisting lateral loads in bending. In two tests, a slender diagonal tension‐only steel bracing member was added at the first floor to obtain an unsymmetrical...

Que retenir de la littérature récente concernant les antithrombotiques ?

G. Helft, P. Leger

Annales de cardiologie et d'angeiologie > 2009 > 58 > 4 > 230-235

Le traitement de la maladie thromboembolique par antivitamine K (AVK) pourrait être amélioré par des molécules ne nécessitant pas de contrôle biologique et occasionnant moins d’hémorragies tout en étant efficace. Ainsi, l’idraparinux, dérivé anti-Xa a été comparé au traitement de référence dans la phlébite et l’embolie pulmonaire. Les résultats inattendus ont été meilleurs dans le cadre de la phlébite...

Tei index to assess perioperative left ventricular systolic function in patients undergoing mitral valve repair

N. Mabrouk-Zerguini, P. Léger, S. Aubert, R. Ray, more

British Journal of Anaesthesia > 2008 > 101 > 4 > 479-485

Using echocardiography, perioperative assessment of systolic function by fractional area change (FAC) is questionable in patients suffering from mitral regurgitation (MR). Tei index, an index expressing global cardiac function, has been reported to be unchanged after mitral valve surgery. We tested the hypothesis where the Tei index could be useful in assessing the perioperative cardiac function in...

Analyse des accidents, des moyens de monitorage et de sécurité de la circulation extracorporelle pour chirurgie cardiaque en France en 2005

J.-M. Charrière, J. Pélissié, C. Verd, P. Léger, more

Annales francaises d'anesthesie et de reanimation > 2007 > 26 > 11 > 907-915

Plusieurs enquêtes ont montré que la circulation extracorporelle (CEC) était associée à des complications augmentant la morbidité et la mortalité de la chirurgie cardiaque. En 2004, la Haute Autorité de santé (HAS) et le Collège français de perfusion ont rédigé des recommandations concernant le monitorage et les dispositifs de sécurité de la CEC.Les objectifs étaient de: (i) mesurer, peu après leur...
