Non-intrusive PODI-ROM for patient-specific aortic blood flow in presence of a LVAD device [PDF]
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are used to provide haemodynamic support to patients with critical cardiac failure. Severe complications can occur because of the modifications of the blood flow in the aortic region. In this work, the effect of a continuous flow LVAD device on the aortic flow is investigated by means of a non-intrusive reduced ...

Force Plate Monitoring of Human Hemodynamics [PDF]
We show that the recoils of the body caused by cardiac motion and blood circulation provide a noninvasive method capable to display the motions of the heart muscle and the propagation of the pulse wave along aorta and its branches. The results are compared with the data obtained invasively during a heart catheterization.

Ventricular torsional relation to ventricular fiber arrangement [PDF]
Left ventricular torsion from helically oriented myofibers is a key parameter of cardiac performance. Physicians observing heart motion on echocardiograms, during cardiac catheterization, or in the operating room, are impressed by the twisting or rotary motion of the left ventricle during systole.

Deep Metric Learning for the Hemodynamics Inference with Electrocardiogram Signals [PDF]
Heart failure is a debilitating condition that affects millions of people worldwide and has a significant impact on their quality of life and mortality rates. An objective assessment of cardiac pressures remains an important method for the diagnosis and treatment prognostication for patients with heart failure.
