Effect of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Material Properties on Simulated Transcatheter Pulmonary Placement
Jalaj Maheshwari, Wensi Wu, Christopher N. Zelonis +9
Finite element (FE) simulations emulating transcatheter pulmonary valve (TPV) system deployment in patient-specific right ventricular outflow tracts (RVOT) assume material properti…
Simulation of Repair on Dynamic Patient-Specific Left Atrioventricular Valve Models
Stephen Ching, Christopher Zelonis, Christian Herz +12
Purpose: To develop and evaluate a dynamic, image-derived patient-specific physical simulation platform for the assessment of left atrioventricular valve (LAVV) repair strategies i…
Integrated Open-Source Framework for Simulation of Transcatheter Pulmonary Valves in Native Right Ventricular Outflow Tracts
Christopher N. Zelonis, Jalaj Maheshwari, Wensi Wu +14
Background - Pulmonary insufficiency is a consequence of transannular patch repair in Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), leading to late morbidity and mortality. Transcatheter native outfl…
Effect of Parametric Variation of Chordae Tendineae Structure on Simulated Atrioventricular Valve Closure
Nicolas R. Mangine, Devin W. Laurence, Patricia M. Sabin +9
Many approaches have been used to model chordae tendineae geometries in finite element simulations of atrioventricular heart valves. Unfortunately, current "functional" chordae ten…
