Abstract

The dynamics of flow patterns and stresses in the vicinity of a bioprosthetic heart valve under pulsatile flow conditions were determined. The flow pattern information was used to validate an in-vitro fatigue testing system under physiological and accelerated conditions. The study involved pressure and flow measurements taken with a pressure transducer and a flow probe.
