摘要
Bypass graft failures are linked to hemodynamic disturbances resulting from poor design. Several studies have tried to improve graft patency by modifying conventional graft designs. One strategy being employed is to induce spiral flow in bypass grafts using an internal ridge which has been proposed to optimize blood flow. However, there is still no study focusing on how the anastomosis angle can affect the hemodynamics of such a design despite its huge influence on local flow fields. To fill this gap, we aimed to understand and optimize the relationship between anastomosis angle and ridged spiral flow bypass graft hemodynamics to minimize disturbances and prolong graft patency. Steady-state, non-Newtonian computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of a distal, end-to-side anastomosis between a ridged graft and idealized femoral artery was used to determine the anastomosis angle that would yield the least hemodynamic disturbances. Transient, pulsatile, non-Newtonian CFD analysis between a conventional and ridged graft at the optimal angle was performed to determine if such a design has an advantage over conventional designs. The results revealed that smaller anastomosis angles tend to optimize graft performance by the reduction in the pressure drop, recirculation, and areas in the host artery affected by abnormally high shear stresses. It was also confirmed that the modified design outperformed conventional bypass grafts due to the increased shear stress generated which is said to have atheroprotective benefits. The findings of the study may be taken into consideration in the design of bypass grafts to prevent their failure due to hemodynamic disturbances associated with conventional designs and highlight the importance of understanding and optimizing the relationship among different geometric properties in designing long-lasting bypass grafts.
