Implication

May inform coronary biomechanical models; hypothesis-generating for human translation and should not yet change practice.

Structured PICO

Population

Six tubular segments of porcine left circumflex artery

Intervention

Application of various levels of simultaneous transmural pressure and axial force encompassing the physiological range of loading

Outcome

Pseudoelastic behavior of the coronary wall and fit of three strain energy functions (Fung's exponential function, a combined polynomial-exponential form, and a neo-Hookean plus exponential expression)

The passive mechanical properties of porcine coronary arteries exhibit high non-linearity and can be accurately modeled using standard strain energy functions.
