  1. ECE 640: Intro to Biomedical Engineering -Guruprasad A. Giridharan

  2. Human Circulatory System • The Heart • Natural Control • Nervous • Humoral • Local • Failing Heart • Why it happens? • Effects

  3. Why Model? • Learning tool • Inexpensive research tool • First step of device design • Predict effects and deepen understanding • Play GOD !! (idealizations, assumption, know true values)

  4. Modeling:Human Circulatory System Utah Circulation Model (UCM)

  5. Modeling Assumptions • Physical parameters are linear and lumpable • Blood flow is influenced only by pressure, resistance and compliance • Blood is a Newtonian fluid • Ideal valves • Resistance and compliance remains constant for any block (except heart)

  6. Modeling:Active and Passive blocks

  7. Modeling:Human Circulatory System

  8. Modeling:Valves P P 1 2

  9. Modeling:Failing LH, during rest

  10. Modeling:Failing LH, during exercise

  11. Ventricular Assist Device • What is a VAD • Axial & Centrifugal Flow VADs • How does it help? • VAD Control • Objectives • Adequate perfusion • Avoiding Suction • Low rpm oscillations • Sensor Issues • Previous strategies

  12. The DeBakey/NASA VAD

  13. Modeling:Ventricular Assist Device • VAD Model • Equations & Assumptions • RPM • Torque • Flow

  14. Modeling:Ventricular Assist Device

  15. Modeling:Model Integration

  16. Modeling: Axial Flow VADModel Integration

  17. Modeling:Model Integration

  18. Modeling:Model Integration

  19. Control • Control Objective • RPM constraint • Why P setpoint ? • Equations • PI VAD controller • Simulation Results

  20. Control:Constraints and Objective function

  21. Control:Control Schematic with 3 sensors

  22. VAD Control:Weak LH, Centrifugal VAD, at rest

  23. No VAD:Weak LH, during rest

  24. Performance of the PI VAD Controller

  25. Sensor Issues • Required 3 sensors (2 pressure, 1 rpm) • Pressure sensors unreliable • Data Noise • Estimate pressure using rpm and current • Extended Kalman filter for estimation

  26. 1 Sensor (rpm sensor only)Weak LH with VAD, during rest

  27. 1 Sensor (rpm sensor only)Weak LH with VAD, during rest

  28. Performance of the PI VAD Controller with P Estimator

  29. Artificial Vasculature Device (AVD) • Conceptual recovery directed device. • No damage to the left ventricle. • Ability to alter the impedence seen by the LV. • Increase coronary perfusion by counter-pulsation.

  30. Design and In-vivo setup

  31. Artificial Vasculature Device (AVD)

  32. Modeling of the AVD

  33. Reduce resistance and increase cardiac output

  34. Reducing Resistance

  35. Controller action
