| Abstract | This paper intends to define an optimal range for the pump speed of Rotary Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs) that are used in bridge-to-recovery treatments. If the pump is operating within that optimal range, the aortic valve will be working properly (i.e. opening and closing) in each cardiac cycle. The proper operation of the aortic valve is a very important factor in helping the heart muscle recovers. The optimal range varies depending on the severity of the Heart Failure (HF) and the level of activity of the patient. A comparison is shown between the total flow produced as a result of operating the pump within the optimal range and the physiological demand of the patient. The comparison suggests that for cases of mild to moderate HF the flow produced is close to the physiological demand, but in severe cases the flow is significantly less than what the patient requires. Furthermore, our results suggest that data from the pump flow and the left ventricle volume signals can be used to test whether or not the aortic valve is experiencing permanent closure. Also an investigation of the aortic valve opening duration is presented for two cases: first, for mild HF case with varying Heart Rate (HR) and then for fixed HR and mild to severe HF cases. These Simulation results are obtained using a $6^{th}$ order mathematical model of the cardiovascular-LVAD system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
