Bond Graph Modeling of Mechanical Circulatory Support Device—Cardiovascular System Interactions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Though mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, such as ventricular assist devices and total artificial hearts (TAH), provide heart failure patients with bridges to heart transplantation or are alternatives to ...
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 ...
Design, Modeling, and Experimental Characterization of A Valveless Pulsatile Flow Mechanical Circulatory Support Device
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, i.e., ventricular assist devices (VADs) and total artificial hearts (TAHs), while effective and vital in restoring hemodynamics in patients with circulatory compromise in ...
In 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 ...
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 ...
