Re: EN>IT stent-related terms

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I think " workhorse " may mean that it serves a broad range of purposes --

not just simple lesions or complex lesions. Sort of a " stent for all

seasons " .

Just my guess,

EN>IT stent-related terms

Sorry,

Another word that I just can't find on dictionaries or other resources...

What do they mean by " workhorse " in the following???

" From simple lesions (TAXUS I & II), to workhorse (TAXUS IV) to complex

lesions (TAXUS V & VI), the

TAXUS results have shown consistency and durability in all trials "

Many thanks,

Stefania

Workhorse would be the kind that are done the most often, the most common.

I would imagine that the Taxus IV is the model most often used, or their highest

volume product. Not particularly special in any way, just used a lot.

hi,

taxus measurement shows us grade of the lesion. workhorse is a private name

for the lesion type. This grade is not smiple but also not complex a middle

grade definition for the lesion type.

Dear Lee, , Hakan and ,

Thank you very much for your help on " workhorse " , you have all been very useful!

However, I have not yet come up with a satisfying solution for " overhang " and

" foreshortening " (The system allows precise placement of stent through very

short balloon overhang (0.5 mm), and low foreshortening (3%)), so if any of you

has any idea how to translate them into Italian, I would be extreeeeeeemely

grateful! :-)

Good night!

I believe that foreshortening refers to the loss of length with expansion of

the stent (it's introduced collapsed, then expanded). Balloon overhang or

overlap may refer to the precision of the balloon fit to stent size (either

length or diameter). Can't help you with the Italian.

Hi Stefania,

Here is a paragraph that may help with stent foreshortening:

The foreshortening of the stent was tested to determine the amount of length

reduction the stent may experience after it is expanded to the rated burst

pressure.  The foreshortening is calculated by subtracting the expanded length

from the crimped length.

www.tcd.ie/bioengineering/documents/ IntroductiontoStentingD..pdf has a

diagram of foreshortening.

Best wishes,

Aydin

If it may be of some help, " foreshortening of a stent " means, in French,

" raccourcissemen du stent. E. g. here, in EN/FR for a duodenal stent, but

whatever is the type of stent, the same terms are used :

Dear , Aydin and Barbara,

The translation has been delivered a few hours ago, however I really thank

you for your inputs because you are confirming that I have used the right

words to translate those terms!!! :-)

Thanks again to everyone who contributed to this thread!
