In vitro modeling of the left heart relies on accurately replicating the physiological conditions of the native heart. The targeted physiological conditions include the complex fluid dynamics coming along with the opening and closing of the aortic and mitral valves. As the mitral valve possess a highly sophisticated apparatus, thence, accurately modeling ...

PURPOSE: Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the second most common valve disease in industrialized countries. Despite its high prevalence, little is known about its impact on the flow dynamics in the left ventricle (LV). Because of the interdependence between valvular function and hemodynamics in the heart chambers, an exploration of the dynamics in the LV coul ...
