An integrated heart-torso electromechanical model for the simulation of electrophysiological outputs accounting for myocardial deformation

Alfio Quarteroni, Francesco Regazzoni

When generating in-silico clinical electrophysiological outputs, such as electrocardiograms (ECGs) and body surface potential maps (BSPMs), mathematical models have relied on single physics, i.e. of the cardiac electrophysiology (EP), neglecting the role o ...

Hemodynamic effects of a dielectric elastomer augmented aorta on aortic wave intensity: An in-vivo study

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Francesco Clavica, Armando Matthieu Walter, Silje Ekroll Jahren, Lorenzo Ferrari

Dielectric elastomer actuator augmented aorta (DEA) represents a novel approach with high potential for assisting a failing heart. The soft tubular device replaces a section of the aorta and increases its diameter when activated. The hemodynamic interactio ...

An Implantable Inductive Sensor for Direct and Continuous Monitoring of the Pulmonary Artery Cross-Sectional Area

Marco Mattavelli, Catherine Dehollain, Diego Ruben Barrettino, Kerim Türe, Mustafa Besirli

This paper presents a novel method for the measure of the cross-sectional area (CSA) of an artery to be used for the direct and continuous (24/7) monitoring of cardiac output (CO). The method is based on the inductance change of an anchoring loop mounted o ...

Concurrent Evolution of Biomechanical and Physiological Parameters With Running-Induced Acute Fatigue

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Salil Apte, Gaëlle Prigent, Vincent Gremeaux

Understanding the influence of running-induced acute fatigue on the homeostasis of the body is essential to mitigate the adverse effects and optimize positive adaptations to training. Fatigue is a multifactorial phenomenon, which influences biomechanical, ...
