Hemodynamic Design Optimization of a Ventricular Cannula Applying Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
Nowadays, a Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) is a hope of clinic solution to patients with heart failure. This study presents the design of the “trumpet mouth” ventricular cannula (TMVC) connected to a pediatric VAD, optimized to reduce the conditions that generate blood damage. The flow through the...
