Patient-specific, echocardiography compatible flow loop model of aortic valve regurgitation in the setting of a mechanical assist device

BackgroundAortic regurgitation (AR) occurs commonly in patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices (LVAD). No gold standard is available to assess AR severity in this setting. Aim of this study was to create a patient-specific model of AR-LVAD with tailored AR flow assessed by Dopp...
