The objective of this study was to analyze the hemodynamic effects of axillary artery VA-ECMO. To this end, we obtained CT angiographic imaging data of the aorta from a carefully selected heart failure patient with a cardiac output of 2.1 L/min. These data were used to construct a detailed fluid–structure interaction model of the aorta. Axillary artery VA-ECMO was then simulated within this model, maintaining a constant flow rate of 3 L/min. The intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) balloon was simulated to inflate and deflate in synchrony with the diastolic and systolic phases of the cardiac cycle. Hemodynamic effects, including left ventricular (LV) pressure afterload, vessel wall stress, perfusion of vital organs, blood flow pulsatility, and the watershed region, were calculated using fluid–structure interaction analysis. We found that axillary artery VA-ECMO delivers well-distributed, oxygen-rich blood flow but may increase left ventricular (LV) afterload and reduce cerebral blood flow. However, when combined with IABP, it unloads LV pressure and increases cerebral blood flow. Integrating axillary artery VA-ECMO with IABP can promote cardiac function recovery and improve oxygen-rich blood perfusion to the vital organs of heart failure patients.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50349,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering","volume":"41 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143248637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinical studies found that inappropriate portal pressure after TIPS is responsible for poor prognosis; however, there is no scheme to predict postoperative portal pressure. Therefore, this study aims to develop a computational model applied to predict the portal pressure after TIPS ahead of the surgery. For this purpose, a patient-specific 0-3-D multi-scale computational model of the hepatic circulation was developed based on preoperative clinical data. The model was validated using the prospectively collected clinical data of 18 patients. Besides, the model of a representative patient was employed in the numerical experiment to further investigate the influences of multiple pathophysiological and surgical factors. Results showed that the difference between the simulated and in vivo measured portal pressures after TIPS was −1.37 ± 3.51 mmHg, and the simulated results were significantly correlated with the in vivo measured results (<i>r</i> = 0.93, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.0001). Numerical experiment revealed that the estimated model parameters and the severity of possible inherent portosystemic collaterals slightly influenced the simulated results, while the shunt diameter considerably influenced the results. In particular, the existence of catheter for pressure measurement would markedly influence postoperative portal pressure.

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of intra-aortic dual-balloon pump (IADBP) and its impact on aortic hemodynamics compared with an IABP. Three-dimensional finite element models were constructed for the aorta, IABP, and IADBP, followed by numerical simulation using the fluid–structure coupling (FSI) method. Three simulations were conducted: Heart failure patients without assistive devices (Case A), those with IABP (Case B), and those with IADBP (Case C). The study assessed the IADBP's hemodynamic effects by measuring aortic branch blood flow, left ventricular afterload, aortic wall stress, and wall shear stress. IADBP outperformed IABP in enhancing blood flow to the coronary arteries, upper limbs, and brain vessels (left and right coronary arteries: 0.88 vs. 1.27, 1.27 vs. 1.99 mL/beat; brachiocephalic artery, left common carotid artery, and left subclavian artery: 6.08 vs. 12.39, 2.48 vs. 4.97, 2.31 vs. 5.08 mL/beat).

The practical relevance of error estimates for biomechanics problems, especially for soft tissue where the response is governed by large strains, is rarely addressed. In this contribution, we propose an implementation of a posteriori error estimates targeting a user-defined quantity of interest, using the dual-weighted residual (DWR) technique tailored to biomechanics. The proposed method considers a general setting that encompasses three-dimensional geometries and model nonlinearities, which appear in hyperelastic soft tissues. We take advantage of the automatic differentiation capabilities embedded in modern finite-element software, which allows the error estimates to be computed generically for a large class of models and constitutive laws.
