contents Aortic valve stenosis (AVS) presents challenges in asymptomatic detection, resulting in delayed intervention. This study aims to understand how AVS affects pulse wave (PW) morphology. A PW database of 16,038 virtual subjects aged 50 to 75 was created, representing normal physiology and varying AVS degrees. All subjects were simulated using a closed-loop one-dimensional/zero-dimensional blood flow model of the entire cardiovascular system, incorporating a four-chamber heart model capable of simulating different levels of AVS by reducing the orifice area of the aortic valve. Even in cases below clinical significance, distinct PW morphology changes were observed, suggesting potential for early AVS detection using peripheral PWs from non-invasive at-home devices.
