A deep learning application to approximate the geometric orifice and coaptation areas of the polymeric heart valves under time - varying transvalvular pressure.

Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials
Machine learning and deep learning frameworks have been presented as a substitute for lengthy computational analysis, such as finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, and fluid-structure interaction. In this study, our objective was to ...

Soft robotic in the construction of prosthetic heart valve: a novel approach.

Journal of medical engineering & technology
In this study, we describe the design, fabrication and computational testing of a new prosthetic device for aortic valve replacement. The device is an active stent composed of a silicone rubber during initial prototyping, with adaptation towards a hy...

A Deep Learning Framework for Design and Analysis of Surgical Bioprosthetic Heart Valves.

Scientific reports
Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used as heart valve replacements but they are prone to fatigue failure; estimating their remaining life directly from medical images is difficult. Analyzing the valve performance can provide better guida...

Automated diagnosis of heart valve degradation using novelty detection algorithms and machine learning.

PloS one
The blood flow through the major vessels holds great diagnostic potential for the identification of cardiovascular complications and is therefore routinely assessed with current diagnostic modalities. Heart valves are subject to high hydrodynamic loa...

Antiphospholipid Antibodies and Heart Valve Disease in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

The American journal of the medical sciences
Evaluation of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) and correlation with heart valve abnormalities among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Nested case-control study was conducted with 70 patients with SLE selected from a longitudinal data...

Reliability of Percutaneous Pulmonary Vent and Coronary Sinus Cardioplegia in the Setting of Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement: A Single-Center Experience.

Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia
OBJECTIVES: Evaluating the efficacy of 2 new percutaneous devices specifically designed to be placed through the right internal jugular vein, therefore named "necklines," for achieving retrograde cardioplegia and pulmonary venting in the setting of m...

Development and Application of a System Based on Artificial Intelligence for Transcatheter Aortic Prosthesis Selection.

Brazilian journal of cardiovascular surgery
INTRODUCTION: The interest in Expert systems has increased in the medical area. Some of them are employed even for diagnosis. With the variability of transcatheter prostheses, the most appropriate choice can be complex. This scenario reveals an enabl...

Endothelial Function and Vascular Properties in Severe Aortic Stenosis Before and After Aortic Valve Replacement Surgery.

Revista portuguesa de cirurgia cardio-toracica e vascular : orgao oficial da Sociedade Portuguesa de Cirurgia Cardio-Toracica e Vascular
INTRODUCTION: The degenerative process that results in aortic valve stenosis (AS) has pathophysiological features similar to the atherosclerotic process. We therefore hypothesized that, as in atherosclerosis, endothelial and vascular dysfunction coul...
