Numerical fluid–structure interaction (FSI) methods have been widely used to predict the
cardiac mechanics and associated hemodynamics of native and artificial heart valves …

Purpose Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive treatment for
high-risk patients with aortic diseases. Despite its increasing use, many influential factors …

Background Recent trials indicated a further expansion of clinical indication of transcatheter
aortic valve replacement to younger and low-risk patients. Factors related to longer-term …

Purpose The understanding of the optimum function of the healthy aortic valve is essential in
interpreting the effect of pathologies in the region, and in devising effective treatments to …

Introduction: Increasing applications of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) to
treat high-or medium-risk patients with aortic diseases have been proposed in recent years …

Computational fluid dynamics has become an important tool for studying blood flow
dynamics. As an in-silico collection of methods, computational fluid dynamics is noninvasive …

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly being considered for use in
younger patients having longer life expectancy than those who were initially treated. The …

Heart valve diseases are common disorders with five million annual diagnoses being made
in the United States alone. All heart valve disorders alter cardiac hemodynamic …

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease in developed countries. High-
fidelity preclinical models can improve AS management by enabling therapeutic innovation …

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a milestone for the
management of aortic stenosis in a growing number of patients who are unfavorable …
