Parameters of Flow through Paravalvular Leak Channels from Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations—Data from Real-Life Cases and Comparison with a Simplified Model
Background: Shear forces affecting erythrocytes in PVL channels can be calculated with computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The presence of PVLs is always associated with some degree of hemolysis in a simplified model of the left ventricle (LV); however, data from real-life examples is lacking. Metho...
