Numerical prediction of thrombus risk in an anatomically dilated left ventricle: the effect of inflow cannula designs

BACKGROUND: Implantation of a rotary blood pump (RBP) can cause non-physiological flow fields in the left ventricle (LV) which may trigger thrombosis. Different inflow cannula geometry can affect LV flow fields. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of inflow cannula geometry on intraven...
