Canary in the cardiac-valve coal mine. Flow velocity and inferred shear during prosthetic valve closure –predictors of blood damage and clotting
2022-06-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Objective</h4> To demonstrate a clear link between predicted blood shear forces during valve closure and thrombogenicity that explains the thrombogenic difference between tissue and mechanical valves and provides a practical metric to develop and refine prosthetic valve designs for reduced thrombogenicity. <h4>Methods</h4> Pulsatile and quasi-steady flow systems were used for testing. The...
