| Abstract | The study focuses on arterial stenoses in arteriovenous fistulae (AVF), the occurrence of which was long underestimated. The objective is to investigate their influence on the hemodynamic conditions within the AVF. A numerical simulation of the blood flow is conducted within a patient-specific arteriovenous fistula that presents an 60% stenosis on the inflow artery. In order to find the vessel shape without stenosis and compare the flow conditions with and without stenosis, the endovascular treatment of balloon-angioplasty is simulated by modeling the vessel deformation during balloon inflation implicitly. Clinically, balloon-angioplasty is considered successful if the post-treatment residual degree of stenosis is below 30%. Different balloon inflation pressures have been imposed numerically to obtain residual degrees of stenosis between 30 and 0%. The comparison of the computational fluid dynamic simulations carried out in the patient-specific native geometry and in the treated ones shows that the arterial stenosis has little impact on the blood flow distribution. The venous flow rate remains unchanged as long as thrombosis does not occur: the nominal flow rate needed for hemodialysis is maintained, which is not the case for a venous stenosis. An arterial stenosis, however, causes an increase in the pressure difference across the stenosed region. A residual degree of stenosis below 20% is needed to guarantee a pressure difference lower than 5 mmHg, which is considered to be the threshold stenosis pressure difference. |

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.
