Arbeitsschwerpunkte

  • Koronarrevaskularisierung ohne Einsatz der Herz-Lungen-Maschine (OPCAB)
  • Komplett arterielle Revaskularisation der Herzkranzgefäße
  • Mitral- und Aortenklappen-Chirurgie unter Berücksichtigung rekonstruktiver und minimal-invasiver Operationstechniken
  • Sondenexplantation mit Excimer-Laser. Transvenöse und epimyokardiale Schrittmacher- und Defibrillator-Implantation (inkl. biventrikulären und komplexeren Systemen).
  • Projekt B01: Wissensbasiertes Assistenzsystem für die rekonstruktive Herzklappenchirurgie.
  • Entwicklung einer computergestützten Operationsumgebung zur rekonstruktiven Chirurgie der Herzklappen und der großen Gefäße.
    Durch die Verknüpfung von modernen 3D diagnostischen Verfahren mit Wissen zur Pathophysiologie wird ein prädiktives Feedback über die operativen Ergebnisse ermöglicht.
  • Die rekonstruktive Herzklappenchirurgie erfordert die präzise Erfassung und Interpretation der komplexen Geometrie und Funktion der Herzklappe. Ziel des Projekts ist ein wissensbasiertes Assistenzsystems, das dem Chirurgen ständig relevantes geometrisches und funktionelles Wissen als neue, quantitativ fundierte Entscheidungshilfe zur Verfügung stellt. Hierzu werden 3D-Parameter zusammen mit klinischen Parametern prä- und intraoperativ erfasst, mit den postoperativen Ergebnissen korreliert, in die Wissensbasis des SFB überführt und von dem Assistenzsystem interpretiert.
