AAA sac management with persistent growth or endoleak in patient continue to be a challenge. This publication demonstrates the modularity of the ViVitro Labs Pulsatile Flow Pump in building advanced mock circulatory loops, and how the ViVitro Labs systems can be used to assess the impact of an embolization technique on the reduction of AAA sac volume and improve a procedure clinical outcome. "A Vivitro SuperPump (Victoria, BC, Canada) cardiac simulator was connected to both ends of a 30-gallon plastic basin using plastic tubing. The graft model construct was placed into the basin and securely attached proximally and distally to the plastic tubing with circumferential clamps. The basin was filled with water and gel beads for optimal acoustic conditions. Once the model was connected to the flow circuit, water was pumped through the system at 70 beats per minute with an average flow rate of 3.5 L/min."

The main goal of this study is to analyze the phase synchrony of balloon inflation with cardiac frequency using a robotic device and assess its dilatation performance compared to the standard. A pressure sensor was hydraulically connected to the ventricular chamber of a ViVitro Pulse Duplicator (ViVitro Labs, Inc. Victoria, BC, Canada). The ViVitest software enables the analysis of the flow rate and pressures of the aortic and ventricular chambers and the estimation of the effective orifice area. Our method shows better dilatation performance, as evidenced by notable improvements in pressure gradient and aortic valve opening area.

In this study the accuracy of the flow convergence method was assessed in a hemodynamic reproducible in-vitro environment. The frequency of the pump (ViVitro SuperPump, ViVitro Labs, Inc., Victoria, Canada) is adjusted to 80 bpm and the stroke volume of the pump is set to reach a left ventricular pressure of approximately 120 mmHg. The most obvious finding is that the RVol determined by physicians with the flow convergence methods underestimates the RVol for eight out of nine MROPs.

Helical stents have been developed to treat peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the superficial femoral artery (SFA), with the premise that their particular geometry could promote swirling flow in the blood. The aim of this work is to provide evidence on the existence of this swirling flow by quantifying its signatures. The flow setup consisted of a programmable piston pump (Super Pump, Vivitro, Victoria, Canada), to create pulsating flow. The in vitro results show that skewedness is increased due to the helical geometry of the stents.

The ViVitro Labs Pulse Duplicator is used in its standard configuration to assess the hydrodynamic performance of Transcatheter aortic valve prosthesis (TAVI) according to ISO 5840-3:2021 requirements (TAVR). "For the pulsatile flow testing a commercial pulse duplicator system (ViVitro Labs, Inc., Victoria, BC, Canada) was used. Testing was conducted at a heart rate of 70 bpm and a systolic duration of 35% ± 3%. The test fluid was 0.9% saline at a temperature of 37 °C ± 2°C. The cardiac output (CO) was varied between 2.0 l/min, 3.5 l/min, 5 l/min, and 7 l/min. And the mean aortic pressure (MAP) was adjusted to 100 mmHg ±5 mmHg in every measurement"

We assessed the piezoelectric performance of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) films, fabricated using solvent casting and processed using uniaxial stretching and thermal annealing, through tapping, straining, and force- and vibration-sweep tests. The ventricular chamber was connected to a digitally controlled piston pump (Super Pump, ViVitro, Victoria, BC, Canada), which provided pulsatile flow to simulate left ventricular ejection into the aortic root. These results establish the feasibility of PLLA-based sensors for real-time biomechanical feedback during and after cardiovascular surgeries, paving the way for next-generation monitoring technologies that enhance patient outcomes.

Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a congenital disease characterized by the narrowing of the aorta, typically the descending portion after the left subclavian artery. To create a systolic contraction, the compliant LV sac is squeezed inside a fluid-filled plexiglass container using a programmable piston pump (ViVitro Labs Inc, SuperPump, AR SERIES). Our principal finding is that CoA increases cerebral blood flow and harmful pulsatile energy transmission to the brain.

In this study, we used a PSIS scaffold as a testing environment to investigate whether there are any hydrodynamic or mechanical differences between an uncalcified and very mildly calcified valve. PSIS valve functionality was tested using the ViVitro Pulse Duplicator system (ViVitro Labs, Inc., Victoria, BC, Canada), which has the capability for recording flow and pressure data around any valve being tested. Clinically, there is no difference in hydrodynamics between a healthy aortic valve and one that is in the very early stages of CAVD.

Given the prevalence and impact of Paravalvular Leakage, there is a critical need to study and mitigate this issue to improve patient outcomes. The experimental setup replicates the human left heart, featuring a Pulsatile Pump ViVitro, an em-tec flow meter, pressure taps, and a transparent acrylic test chamber housing a heart valve. The results of the experiments indicate that a wall jet forms during diastole, flowing back from the aortic side into the ventricular side.
