  3. Pharyngeal electrical stimulation for neurogenic dysphagia (HTG709)

    Evidence-based recommendations on pharyngeal electrical stimulation for neurogenic dysphagia. This involves passing a catheter through the nose and into the throat where it is used to deliver small amounts of electrical current. The current travels from the throat to the brain and stimulates the areas involved in swallowing.

  10. Percutaneous image-guided cryoablation of peripheral neuroma for chronic pain (HTG652)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous image-guided cryoablation of peripheral neuroma for chronic pain. This involves using a needle-like probe to freeze and destroy small parts of nerves in neuromas to stop the pain signals.

  11. VA ECMO for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in adults with refractory cardiac arrest (HTG765)

    Evidence-based recommendations on VA ECMO for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in adults with refractory cardiac arrest. This involves using an artificial lung to oxygenate the blood outside the body.

  12. Transcervical extracorporeal reverse flow neuroprotection for reducing the risk of stroke during carotid artery stenting (HTG415)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transcervical extracorporeal reverse flow neuroprotection for reducing the risk of stroke during carotid artery stenting in adults. This involves reversing blood flow away from the brain and filtering the blood to remove any debris.
