Implementation of an epicardial implantable MEMS sensor for continuous and real-time postoperative assessment of left ventricular activity in adult minipigs over a short- and long-term period

The sensing of left ventricular (LV) activity is fundamental in the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular health in high-risk patients after cardiac surgery to achieve better short- and long-term outcome. Conventional approaches rely on noninvasive me ...

Effect of the structural modification of Candesartan with Zinc on hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Augusto Martins Lima, Valeria Romina Martinez

Hypertension is the most common cause of left ventricular hypertrophy, contributing to heart failure progression. Candesartan (Cand) is an angiotensin receptor antagonist widely used for hypertension treatment. Structural modifications were previously perf ...

Design and computational optimization of compliance-matching aortic grafts

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia

Introduction: Synthetic vascular grafts have been widely used in clinical practice for aortic replacement surgery. Despite their high rates of surgical success, they remain significantly less compliant than the native aorta, resulting in a phenomenon calle ...

Biomechanics of diastolic dysfunction: a one-dimensional computational modeling approach

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Diastolic dysfunction (DD) is a major component of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Accordingly. a profound understanding of the underlying biomechanical mechanisms involved in DD is needed to elucidate all aspects of HFpEF. In this ...

Hemodynamics of ageing, ventricular-arterial coupling and noninvasive assessment of key hemodynamical and cardiac quantities

Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Ageing is a natural process that affects both the anatomical and functional properties of the cardiovascular system and alters the coupling characteristics between the heart and the aorta. These alterations may predispose the cardiovascular system in the d ...

Noninvasive Stroke Volume Monitoring by Electrical Impedance Tomography

Fabian Braun

In clinical practice it is of vital importance to track the health of a patient's cardiovascular system via the continuous measurement of hemodynamic parameters. Cardiac output (CO) and the related stroke volume (SV) are two such parameters of central inte ...

Divergent patterns of atrial ECG organization during catheter ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation revealed by adaptive harmonic frequency schemes

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

Introduction: We hypothesized that organization indices based on the analysis of atrial ECG harmonic components may help identify patients (pts) with persistent AF (pAF) unresponsive to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and left atrial (LA) ablation. Using ad ...

Thermodynamically consistent orthotropic activation model capturing ventricular systolic wall thickening in cardiac electromechanics

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Toni Mikael Lassila, Simone Rossi, Adélia Sequeira

The complex phenomena underlying mechanical contraction of cardiac cells and their influence in the dynamics of ventricular contraction are extremely important in understanding the overall function of the heart. In this paper we generalize previous contrib ...
