Abstract
Severe mitral regurgitation is a complication that reduces the quality of life of those affected and left untreated, it can lead to heart failure and potential death. With the recent success of transcatheter aortic valve replacement surgery reducing the risk associated with open heart surgery, attention has been focused on performing a similar approach for mitral valve replacement. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement has proven to be more challenging; one of the associated complications is the potential misalignment of the mitral valve that alters the flow dynamics occurring in the left ventricle. An in-vitro experiment was performed to study the change in the flow dynamics associated with increasing misalignment severity. Three different valve orientations were investigated: a healthy case to use as a baseline, a slightly angled case such that the valve is aligned with the apical septal wall and a highly angled case that has the valve aligned in the basal septal wall. Each valve orientation was tested over a range of heart rates corresponding to 40, 60, 80, 100 and 120 beats per minute while maintaining a constant stroke volume. A Eulerian analysis was performed on fluid mechanics properties including the kinetic energy, viscous energy dissipation and circulation. The healthy case was determined to minimize viscous energy dissipation and maximize systolic kinetic energy. Circulation in the altered valve orientations had a reversed direction relative to the healthy case. A Lagrangian analysis was completed to quantify the amount of stasis, which was determined to be minimized in the healthy case.
