Journal ArticleDOI
Theory to predict shear stress on cells in turbulent blood flow
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that energy dissipation as opposed to bulk shear stress in laminar or turbulent blood flow dictates local mechanical environment of blood cells and platelets universally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hemocompatibility and Hemodynamics of Novel Hyaluronan–Polyethylene Materials for Flexible Heart Valve Leaflets
David A. Prawel,Harold Dean,Marcio Forleo,Nicole R. Lewis,Justin Gangwish,Ketul C. Popat,Lakshmi Prasad Dasi,Susan P. James +7 more
TL;DR: In vitro hemodynamic testing of prototype HA/LLDPE IPN PHVs was used to assess feasibility as functional HVs, and strong potential for IPNs between HA and polymers as future hemocompatible HV leaflets is demonstrated.
Patent
Glycosaminoglycan and synthetic polymer materials for blood-contacting applications
Susan P. James,IV Harold Dean,Lakshmi Prasad Dasi,Marcio Forleo,Ketul C. Popat,Nicole R. Lewis,David A. Prawel +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a composite of low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylenes (LLDPE) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Hypertension on the Closing Dynamics and Lagrangian Blood Damage Index Measure of the B-Datum Regurgitant Jet in a Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valve
TL;DR: The results provide a better understanding of BDI of the regurgitant b-datum jet and sheds light on the potential importance of blood damage testing under hypertensive conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reynolds shear stress for textile prosthetic heart valves in relation to fabric design.
David Bark,Atieh Yousefi,Marcio Forleo,Antoine Vaesken,Frederic Heim,Lakshmi Prasad Dasi,Lakshmi Prasad Dasi +6 more
TL;DR: This study characterizes flow in multiple textile valve designs with an aim of developing a low profile valve, and found RSS was reduced for low profile valves relative to high profile valves, but was otherwise similar amongLow profile valves involving different fabric designs.
