Advances computational modeling of mitral valve dynamics; leaves open human validation before clinical translation.
Paeme et al. (2011) studied Ischemic mitral insufficiency (simulated). Updated multi-scale cardiovascular system model with progressive mitral valve dynamics vs. Previously validated closed-loop CVS model with Heaviside functions was evaluated on Pressure-volume (PV) loops, transmitral flow evolution, and mitral valve aperture area evolution. The updated cardiovascular system model incorporating progressive mitral valve opening dynamics successfully simulated healthy and ischemic mitral insufficiency conditions.
