This technique is based on the energy absorption by a chromophore with subsequent heating of the underlying tissue. The focus of this thesis was the development of an electrospun solder patch and the exploration of the applicability of the patch for LAVA using medium-sized arteries. Current challenges in the development of a new biomaterial and soldering technique for sutureless LAVA are discussed and can guide future research.<eng> vorgelegt von Annemarie Schönfeld Dissertation Universität Rostock 2018 570 610 42.15 44.85 http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00002299 An electrospun protein- and chromophore-loaded patch--(DE-627)1032980389 urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2018-0131-4 doi: 10.18453/rosdok_id00002299 oclc: 1060603679 ppn: (DE-627)1032526149
