Quantification of the Phenomena Affecting Reflective Arterial Photoplethysmography

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a widely emerging method to assess vascular health in humans. The origins of the signal of reflective PPG on peripheral arteries have not been thoroughly investigated. We aimed to identify and quantify the optical and biomecha ...

Assessment of Stiffness of Large to Small Arteries in Multistage Renal Disease Model: A Numerical Study

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Vasiliki Bikia, Patrick Segers

Arterial stiffness (AS), as assessed via pulse wave velocity (PWV), is a major biomarker for cardiovascular risk assessment in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the mechanisms responsible for the changes in PWV in the presence of kidney ...

Considerations for analysis of endothelial shear stress and strain in FSI models of atherosclerosis

Lydia Aslanidou, Fotios Savvopoulos

Atherosclerosis is a lipid driven chronic inflammatory disease that is characterized by the formation of plaques at predilection sites. These predilection sites (side branches, curved segments, and bifurcations) have often been associated with disturbed sh ...

In situ photopolymerizable hydrogels for intracranial aneurysms treatment

Oriane Poupart

Intracranial aneurysm is a cerebrovascular disease characterized by an artery dilation in the brain. An aneurysm is prone to rupture, which causes a life-threatening subarachnoid hemorrhage. The major drawbacks of the current treatments, open surgical clip ...

Bistable Puncturing Tool for Retinal Vein Cannulation

Yves Bellouard, Simon Nessim Henein, Charles Baur, Lisa Anaïs Jeanne Bonnefoy

An innovative surgical tool prototype dedicated to safe puncturing has been developed for the treatment of retinal vein occlusions (RVOs). The tool is manufactured monolithically by femtolaser printing in fused silica. It consists of a programmable bistabl ...

Mapping the site-specific accuracy of loop-based local pulse wave velocity estimation and reflection magnitude: a 1D arterial network model analysis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers

Objective: Local pulse wave velocity (PWV) can be estimated from the waterhammer equation and is an essential component of wave separation analysis. However, previous studies have demonstrated inaccuracies in the estimations of local PWV due to the presenc ...

On the importance of the nonuniform aortic stiffening in the hemodynamics of physiological aging

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Mathematical models of the arterial tree constitute a valuable tool to investigate the hemodynamics of aging and pathology. Rendering such models as patient specific could allow for the assessment of central hemodynamic variables of clinical interest. Howe ...

A 1D computer model of the arterial circulation in horses: An important resource for studying global interactions between heart and vessels under normal and pathological conditions

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers

Arterial rupture in horses has been observed during exercise, after phenylephrine administration or during parturition (uterine artery). In human pathophysiological research, the use of computer models for studying arterial hemodynamics and understanding n ...

A computational fluid-structure interaction analysis of coronary Y-grafts

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara

Coronary artery disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The stenotic coronary vessels are generally treated with coronary artery bypass grafts (CABGs), which can be either arterial (internal mammary artery, radial artery) or venous (saphen ...

Numerical simulation of left ventricular assist device implantations: comparing the ascending and the descending aorta cannulations

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Adelmo Cristiano Innocenza Malossi, Jean Bonnemain, Matteo Lesinigo, Ludwig Von Segesser

In this work we present numerical simulations of continuous flow left ventricle assist device implantation with the aim of comparing the ascending and the descending aorta anastomosis of outflow cannula. Despite the fact that the second approach is less in ...
