RISIn Vitro Evaluation of a Novel Hemodynamically Optimized Trileaflet Polymeric Prosthetic Heart Valve
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Calcific aortic valve disease is the most common and life threatening form of valvular heart disease, characterized by stenosis and regurgitation, which is currently treated at the symptomatic endstages via openheart ...
Thromboresistance Comparison of the HeartMate II Ventricular Assist Device With the Device Thrombogenicity Emulation Optimized HeartAssist 5 VAD
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Approximately 7.5 أ— 106 patients in the US currently suffer from endstage heart failure. The FDA has recently approved the designations of the Thoratec HeartMate II ventricular assist device (VAD) for both bridgetotransplant ...
Comparative Fluid–Structure Interaction Analysis of Polymeric Transcatheter and Surgical Aortic Valves' Hemodynamics and Structural Mechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an effective alternative to conventional surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in high-risk elderly patients with calcified aortic valve disease. All currently ...
Visions of TAVR Future: Development and Optimization of a Second Generation Novel Polymeric TAVR
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tissue-based transcatheter aortic valve (AV) replacement (TAVR) devices have been a breakthrough approach for treating aortic valve stenosis. However, with the expansion of TAVR to younger and lower risk patients, issues ...
