Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is the most important determinant of survival in patients
with pulmonary hypertension (PH). The manifestations of RV dysfunction not only include …

Standard approaches for uncertainty quantification in cardiovascular modeling pose
challenges due to the large number of uncertain inputs and the significant computational …

Ventricular pressure-volume (PV) loops offer unique insights into cardiovascular mechanics.
PV loops can be instrumental in improving our understanding of various congenital heart …

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling
resulting in right ventricular (RV) dysfunction and ultimately RV failure. Mechanical stimuli …

Objective: Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) is regarded as a fundamental index to assess
pulmonary artery stenosis. The application of FFR can increase the accuracy of detection of …

Computing the solution of linear systems of equations is invariably the most time consuming
task in the numerical solutions of PDEs in many fields of computational science. In this study …

Background: Right ventricular (RV) failure is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in
patients with left ventricular (LV) end-stage heart failure (ESHF). Pulmonary artery pulsatility …

Pulmonary hypertension (PH), defined by a mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP)
greater than 20 mmHg, is characterized by increased pulmonary vascular resistance and …

The noninvasive assessment of ventricular function is an ongoing challenge with new tools
and measurements always being considered and tested. The noninvasive assessment of …

Right ventricular (RV) systolic function is an essential but neglected component in cardiac
evaluation, and its importance to the contribution to overall cardiac function is undermined. It …
