Fluid Structure Interaction With Contact Surface Methodology for Evaluation of Endovascular Carotid Implants for Drug-Resistant Hypertension Treatment

Drug-resistant hypertensive patients may be treated by mechanical stimulation of stretch-sensitive baroreceptors located in the sinus of carotid arteries. To evaluate the efficacy of endovascular devices to stretch the carotid sinus such that the induced strain might trigger baroreceptors to increas...
