[Comparisons of hemodynamics in 1-way and 2-way CABG]

For the purpose of improving the hemodynamics of CABG, the authors presented a new amelioration measurement of symmetric 2-way bypass graft. The physiological blood flow in 1-way and 2-way bypass graft of coronary is simulated with finite element method, and the data on computational hemodynamics of these two cases were compared. The temporal-spatial distributions of hemodynamics during the cardiac cycle such as flow patterns and wall shear stress in the vicinity of anastomosis were analyzed. The study results showed that 2-way bypass graft was of more rational hemodynamics when compared with 1-way bypass graft, and it could improve the flow conditions and decrease the probability of restenosis.
