Abstract
Objective: We aimed to elucidate the effects of the micro-structure of the pyrolytic carbon for artificial heart valves on its hydrodynamic performance.
Methods: Bileaflet mechanical valves of GKS 23 and 29 A were randomly selected. According to ISO5840, mean transvalvular pressure (MPG), regurgitation fraction (RF), and effective orifice area (EOA) of valve were assessed. Then, parallel-groove pattern was constructed by laser etching on leaflet surface, and the valves were subjected again to the same test.
Results: Compared with before patterning at 2, 3.5, 5, and 7 L/min, the MPG of the valves in two specifications were higher, the EOA was larger in 23 A, but smaller in 29 A, and the RF was contrary to EOA. At 5 L/min, the RF in both specifications was lower after etching at 45 bpm. At 70 bpm however, the RF in 23 A decreased, in 29 A increased.
Conclusion: The parallel-groove pattern on leaflet surface affected the hemodynamic performance of the valve prostheses.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
