Cells from amniotic fluid used to tissue-engineer a new trachea
Pediatric surgeon looks to fetal cells to repair birth defectsResearchers at Children's Hospital Boston report using tissue engineering to reconstruct defective tracheas (windpipes) in fetal lambs, first using cells from the amniotic fluid to grow sections of cartilage tube, and then implanting these living grafts into the lambs while still in the womb. The tracheal repair technique is one...Stem cell therapy for developing new trachea using Tissue engineering
Researchers from Children’s Hospital of Boston have reconstructed defective windpipes using tissue engineering in fetal lambs. The researchers used amniotic fluid for growing the sections of cartilage tube // and then implanted these living tissues into lambs, while they were in the womb. This technique of tissue engineering is used for altering birth defects. Undifferentiated stem cell from amni...Cuffed EndoFlex Endotracheal Tube
Description:The Cuffed Endoflex endotracheal tube had a murphy eye, high volume, low pressure cuff. Endoflex endotracheal tubes are individual packaged in sterilized pouches, 10 units per box, 10 boxes per case....
