Personalised Decision Support for Heart Valve Disease (EurValve)
Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2019,
Valvular Heart Disease currently affects 2.5% of the population, but is overwhelmingly a disease of the elderly and consequently on the rise. It is dominated by two conditions, Aortic Stenosis and Mitral Regurgitation, both of which are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, yet which pose a truly demanding challenge for treatment optimisation. By combining multiple complex modelling ...

VPH-Cardiovascular Simulation and Experimentation for Personalised Medical Devices (VPH-CaSE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2018,
VPH-CaSE is focused on state-of-the-art developments in personalised cardiovascular support, underpinned by simulation and experimentation, building on the foundations of the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH) Initiative. The Individual Research Projects of 14 ESRs provide knowledge exchange across three research clusters (i) Cardiac tissue function and cardiac support(ii) Cardiovascular haemodynam ...

Airway Disease PRedicting Outcomes through Patient Specific Computational Modelling (AirPROM)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2016,
The airways diseases asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease affect over 400 million people world-wide and cause considerable morbidity and mortality. Airways disease costs the European Union in excess of €56 billion per annum. Current therapies are inadequate and we do not have sufficient tools to predict disease progression or response to current or future therapies. Our consortium, Air ...

Real Time Simulation for Safer vascular Stenting (RT3S)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2014,
Vascular stenting is an invasive procedure for the treatment of occlusive vascular diseases; a small wire mesh tube called a stent is permanently placed in the artery or vein to help it remain open. The procedure is called angioplasty. Originally developed to treat sever occlusions of coronary arteries, thanks to its good results, stenting found an expanding indication also for the treatment of o ...

Osteoporotic Virtual Physiological Human (VPHOP)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2012,
Nearly four million osteoporotic bone fractures cost the European health system more than 30 billion Euro per year. This figure could double by 2050. After the first fracture, the chances of having another one increase by 86%. We need to prevent osteoporotic fractures. The first step is an accurate prediction of the patient-specific risk of fracture that considers not only the skeletal determin ...
