Usefulness of Proximal Coronary Wave Speed for Wave Intensity Analysis in Diseased Coronary Vessels [PDF]
Background: Wave speed is needed to separate net wave intensity into forward and backward traveling components. However, wave speed in diseased coronary arteries cannot be assessed from hemodynamic measurements obtained distal to a stenosis.

Noninvasive pulmonary artery wave intensity analysis in pulmonary hypertension.
Pulmonary wave reflections are a potential hemodynamic biomarker for pulmonary hypertension (PH) and can be analyzed using wave intensity analysis (WIA). In this study we used pulmonary vessel area and flow obtained using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)

The Use of Maximum Entropy to Enhance Wave Intensity Analysis: An Application to Coronary Arteries in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background: Wave intensity analysis is useful for analyzing coronary hemodynamics. Much of its clinical application involves the identification of waves indicated by peaks in the wave intensity and relating their presence or absence to different ...

Feasibility of Wave Intensity Analysis from 4D Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging Data [PDF]
Congenital heart defects (CHD) introduce haemodynamic changes; e.g., bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) presents a turbulent helical flow, which activates aortic pathological processes.

Wave Intensity Analysis Combined With Machine Learning can Detect Impaired Stroke Volume in Simulations of Heart Failure [PDF]
Heart failure is treatable, but in the United Kingdom, the 1-, 5- and 10-year mortality rates are 24.1, 54.5 and 75.5%, respectively. The poor prognosis reflects, in part, the lack of specific, simple and affordable diagnostic techniques; the disease is ...

Assessment of Ventriculo‐Arterial Interactions in Early and Undifferentiated Pulmonary Hypertension Using Wave Intensity Analysis [PDF]
Background Pulmonary wave intensity analysis uses pressure and velocity data to assess the intensity, direction, type, and timing of waves. Its application in early and undifferentiated pulmonary hypertension (PH) to characterize right ventricular (RV ...

Wave Intensity Analysis of Right Ventricular Function during Pulsed Operation of Rotary Left Ventricular Assist Devices. [PDF]
Changing the speed of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) cyclically may be useful to restore aortic pulsatility; however, the effects of this pulsation on right ventricular (RV) function are unknown.
