Exploratory Simulation of Thrombosis in a Temporary LVAD Catheter Pump within a Virtual In-vivo Left Heart Environment
Greg W. Burgreen, Mansur Zhussupbekov, Rodrigo Méndez Rojano +1
Percutaneous catheter pumps are intraventricular temporary mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices that are positioned across the aortic valve into the left ventricle (LV) and…
von Willebrand Factor unfolding mediates platelet deposition in a model of high-shear thrombosis
Mansur Zhussupbekov, Rodrigo Mendez Rojano, Wei-Tao Wu +1
Thrombosis under high-shear conditions is mediated by the mechanosensitive blood glycoprotein von Willebrand Factor (vWF). vWF unfolds in response to strong flow gradients and faci…
Multi-scale simulation of thrombus formation at LVAD inlet cannula connection: Importance of Virchow's triad
R. Mendez Rojano, M. Zhussupbekov, J. F. Antaki
As pump thrombosis is reduced in current-generation ventricular assist devices (VAD), adverse events such as bleeding or stroke remain at unacceptable rates. Thrombosis around the…
