Multi-scale simulation of red blood cell trauma in large-scale high-shear flows after Norwood operation
The central shunt is more hemolytic in comparison to the modified Blalock-Taussig shunt. Between the two mBTSs, the smaller diameter is slightly more prone to hemolysis. Spatial damage maps produced based on the studied metrics, highlighted hot zones that match the clinical images of shunt thrombosis, demonstrating their potential to enhance cardiac surgery outcomes.
