Assessment of aortic valve pressure overload and leaflet functions in an ex vivo beating heart loaded with a continuous flow cardiac assist device

TL;DR: It is concluded that the deleterious effect of the reduced pulsatile flow on the aortic valve functions and haemodynamics is immediate and such an insult may explain the structural changes of the aORTic valve causing leaflet fusion and/or regurgitation in the chronic phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Essential information on surgical heart valve characteristics for optimal valve prosthesis selection: Expert consensus document from the European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery (EACTS)-The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS)-American Association for Thoracic Surgery (AATS) Valve Labelling Task Force.

TL;DR: This Expert Consensus Document formulates recommendations for providing SHV physical dimensions, intended implant position and hemodynamic performance in a transparent, uniform manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Impact of Biomedical Engineering on the Development of Minimally Invasive Cardio-Thoracic Surgery

TL;DR: In this paper, the boundary conditions for minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) with the aim to reduce procedure-related patient injury and discomfort are described, and the analysis of the MICS work process and its demand for improved tools and devices is followed by a description of relevant sub-specialties of bio-medical engineering: electronics, biomechanics, and materials sciences.
