Intraventricular flow features and cardiac mechano-energetics after mitral valve interventions – feasibility of an isolated heart model

The aim of this work was the development of an isolated heart setup to delineate the interactions between intraventricular flow features, hemodynamic parameters and mechano-energetics after certain mitral valve therapies. Five porcine hearts were explanted and prepared for (i) edge-to-edge mitral va...
