Helical Flow Component of Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs) Outflow Improves Aortic Hemodynamic States

BACKGROUND: Although LVADs are confirmed to have strong effects on aortic hemodynamics, the precise mechanisms of the helical flow component of LVAD outflow are still unclear. MATERIAL/METHODS: To clarify these effects, 3 cases – normal case, flat flow case, and realistic flow case – were designed a...
