Heart Valve Biomechanics and Underlying Mechanobiology.

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, 2016
Heart valves control unidirectional blood flow within the heart during the cardiac cycle. They have a remarkable ability to withstand the demanding mechanical environment of the heart, achieving lifetime durability by processes involving the ongoing ...

Speaking from the heart: a mathematical point of view [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The mechanics associated with a living entity dictates its ability to survive or perish. Similarly, heart valve function relies on its mechanical properties and structural integrity. A compromise in these leads to diseased valve states.

Joint Modelling of Longitudinal and Survival Data with Applications in Heart Valve Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
__Abstract__ The heart is one of the most important organs in the entire human body. Specifically, it is a pump composed of muscle which pumps blood throughout the blood vessels to various parts of the body by repeated rhythmic contractions.

Jefferson Surgeon Performs Minimally Invasive Robotic Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Routine physical exams often reveal the presence of a heart murmur, which can be the first sign of mitral valve prolapse. Typically diagnosed with an echocardiogram, mitral valve prolapse is a condition in which the valve separating the upper and lower ...

Mathematical Modeling of Mitral Valve Dynamics: Nonlinear vs Linear Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
A tractable mathematical model of the valve dynamics is developed for the real time computations and in silico planning of the biomechanically consistent surgery on the ruptured chordae of the mitral valve.
