A Finite Element Study on Variations in Mass Transport in Stented Porcine Coronary Arteries Based on Location in the Coronary Arterial Tree
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Drugeluting stents have a significant clinical advantage in latestage restenosis due to the antiproliferative drug release. Understanding how drug transport occurs between coronary arterial locations can better help guide ...
Optimizing the Porohyperelastic Response of a Layered Compliance Matched Vascular Graft to Promote Luminal Self-Cleaning
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thrombosis and intimal hyperplasia have remained the major failure mechanisms of small-diameter vascular grafts used in bypass procedures. While most efforts to reduce thrombogenicity have used a biochemical surface ...
