Title Sampling Technique Research Design Analysis (Non Parametric) Conclution
Experimental Non Parametric To check the data normality, Kruskal- Most samples demonstrated a In conclusion, aortic and Study of Wallis tests have been conducted for nonlinear hyperelastic strain-stress pulmonary artery homografts Anisotropic all the tissue sample stiffnesses response to UTT. Stiffness exhibit hyperelastic mechanical Stress/Strain investigated. A value of = 0.05 is (measured by tangent modulus at characteristic with anisotropic Relationships of taken as the significance level of the different strains) in all orientations effect. The calibrated Holzapfel- Aortic and Kruskal-Wallis test. For all aortic and were compared and shown as Gasser constitutive model can Pulmonary pulmonary artery homografts contour plots. For each vessel be applied in surgical preparation Artery segments, probability distributions segment at all strain levels, stiffness and related simulation to predict Homografts and are the same for anterior and posterior was not significantly different anisotropic biomechanical Synthetic aspects, when comparing all among aspects and orientations. For behavior. The synthetic vascular Vascular Grafts orientations for each region under synthetic grafts, stiffness was grafts are significantly stiffer than true strain of 10%,20%, and 30% significantly different among homografts. The mechanical (p>0.11 in all regions). For all Aortic orientations (p<0.042). Aorta is properties of SVG-GORE-TEX in and pulmonary artery homografts significantly stiffer than pulmonary L orientation are comparable to segments, probability distributions artery at 10% strain, comparing all those of the homografts, and are the same for different orientations orientations, aspects, and regions this characteristic should be (C, D and L), when comparing both (p=0.0001). Synthetic grafts are considered by surgeons when aspects for each region under true significantly stiffer than aortic and performing reconstructive strain of 10%, 20%, and 30% (p>0.10 pulmonary homografts at all strain cardiovascular surgery with this in all regions). For SVG-GORE- levels (p<0.046). Aortic, pulmonary material. These differences TEX, when comparing all the artery, and synthetic grafts exhibit between aortic and pulmonary orientations, probability distributions hyperelastic biomechanical artery homografts and synthetic are the same under true strain of 10% behavior with anisotropic effect. vascular grafts may play a role in (p=0.051), but not the same under Differences in mechanical native neonatal tissue true strain of 20% (p=0.027), and properties among vascular grafts behavior, ventricular/arterial 30% (p=0.027).
