Simulation of Repair on Dynamic Patient-Specific Left Atrioventricular Valve Models. Open
This study demonstrates the feasibility of a dynamic physical simulation platform for preclinical LAVV repair evaluation. Although challenges remain in accurately modeling leaflet closure and chordal mechanics, this proof-of-concept work h…

Integrated Open-Source Framework for Simulation of Transcatheter Pulmonary Valves in Native Right Ventricular Outflow Tracts Open
Background - Pulmonary insufficiency is a consequence of transannular patch repair in Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), leading to late morbidity and mortality. Transcatheter native outflow tract pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) has become comm…

Effect of Parametric Variation of Chordae Tendineae Structure on Simulated Atrioventricular Valve Closure Open
Many approaches have been used to model chordae tendineae geometries in finite element simulations of atrioventricular heart valves. Unfortunately, current "functional" chordae tendineae geometries lack fidelity that would be helpful when …

Introduction of transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair in patients with congenital heart disease at a children's hospital Open
Background Atrioventricular valve regurgitation (AVVR) is a devastating complication in children and young adults with congenital heart disease (CHD), particularly in patients with single ventricle physiology. Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge re…
