Núcleo de fisiología y cirugía cardíaca del ratón The Mouse Cardiac Surgery and Physiology Core supports Einstein investigators in delineating the impact of genes, drugs and metabolites on cardiac function. The core employs multiple approaches to analyze cardiovascular structure and function in wild-type and genetically manipulated mice. The technically experienced staff of the core performs the analyses and provides the data to the investigator. When possible, training is also offered. Contact core staff to determine the availability of new surgical and measurement services being developed. Servicios Procedures/measurements currently offered: Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion to induce myocardial infarction in vivo Permanent coronary artery occlusion to induce myocardial infarction in vivo Quantification of myocardial infarction size Echocardiography (M-mode and two-dimensional) for cardiac chamber size, wall thickness and function Insertion of arterial (e.g., carotid) and venous (e.g., jugular) catheters for blood pressure and drug Infusion Tail vein injections Implantation of osmotic minipumps for drug infusion (e.g., Alzet) Related Shared Facilities instalaciones no relacionadas Center Affiliations afiliados sin centro Publicaciones Seleccionadas Sin publicaciones Location and Contacts Mouse Cardiac Surgery and Physiology Core Forchheimer G45 Nikolaos G.
