| description | Coronary rotational atherectomy is an effective technique for treating cardiovascular disease by removing calcified tissue using small rotary grinding tools. However, it is difficult to analyze the stress force on vessel walls using experiments directly. Using computational fluid dynamics is a better way to study the stress force characteristics of the burr grinding procedure from a fluid dynamics perspective. For this purpose, physical and simulation models of atherosclerotic plaque removal were constructed in this study. The simulation results show that smaller ratios between the burr and arterial diameter (B/A = 0.5) result in a more stable flow field domain. Additionally, the pressure and stress force generated by the 4.5 mm diameter grinding tool reach 92.77 kPa and 10.36 kPa, surpassing those of the 2.5 mm and 3.5 mm grinding tools. The study has demonstrated the use of computational fluid dynamics to investigate wall shear stress characteristics in medical procedures, providing valuable guidance for optimizing the procedure and minimizing complications. |
