Abstract:
This study investigated the impact of Paravalvular Leakage (PVL) due to the undersizing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) valve using the Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) approach. A 3D patient-specific aorta model with an annulus diameter of 27.3 mm was constructed using MIMICS software. The TAVI valve identical to Edward SAPIEN XT 26 and 23 size was implanted into the patient’s aortic annulus. The impact of severe aortic stenosis by means of smaller opening of 20% different Geometrical Orifice Area (GOA) was represented in terms of undersizing of TAVI valves in order to investigate the fluid and structure mechanical properties using FSI simulation. TAVI 26 (20% GOA) produced highest and critical value compared to undersize of TAVI 23 (20% GOA) in terms of maximum velocity, highest magnitude of pressure drop, maximum WSS distribution and maximum total mesh displacement. In contrast, the mass flow rate showed that TAVI 23 (20% GOA) produced smaller percentage of uneven mass flow rate distributions at the aorta outlets compared to TAVI 26 (20% GOA). Moreover, the mass flow rate magnitude of PVL complication for TAVI 23 (20% GOA) also showed higher magnitude than TAVI 26 (20% GOA) due to higher area of PVL region
Audience take-away:
- The FSI simulation technique on understanding the blood flow behavior of patient specific case.
- The knowledge hemodynamics on undersizing TAVI valve using FSI simulation.
- To have a clear overview on the impact of undersizing TAVI valve with the help of simulation prior to perform actual operation.
- To facilitate the procedure especially for cardiology to envision more realistically the region of interest for both clinician and patient.
