Transverse isotropic modelling of left-ventricle passive filling: Mechanical characterization for epicardial biomaterial manufacturing

Abstract: Biomaterials applied to the epicardium have been studied intensively in recent years for different therapeutic purposes. Their mechanical influence on the heart, however, has not been clearly identified. Most biomaterials for epicardial applications are manufactured as membranes or cardiac patches that have isotropic geometry, which is not well suited to myocardial wall motion. Myocardial wall motion during systole and diastole produces a complex force in different directions. Membrane or cardiac patches that … Show more

“…However, these mechanical properties are due to a way more complex organization of myofibers within the heart wall, which can be evaluated at a more microscopic level. In this regard, Jehl et al [ 28 ] characterized the mechanical properties of the myocardial wall of pig cardiac tissue by performing nanoindentation measures on tissue slices of the long axis of the left ventricle. Their results showed variations in stiffness according to the local orientation of myofibers within the myocardial tissue.…”
