Design and implementation of a cost-effective, open-source, and programmable pulsatile flow system.
À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ
Design and implementation of a cost-effective, open-source, and programmable pulsatile flow system. HardwareX Herwald, S. E., Sze, D. Y., Ennis, D. B., Vezeridis, A. M. 2024; 19: e00561Abstract
The primary objective of this À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ was to design, implement, and validate a programmable open-source pulsatile flow system to cost-effectively simulate vascular flows. We employed an Arduino-compatible microcontroller combined with a motor driver to control a centrifugal direct current (DC) motor pump. The system was programmed to produce pulsatile flows with an arterial pulse waveform. Validation with Doppler ultrasound and flow measurements confirmed that our Arduino-based system successfully replicated arterial vascular flow. The materials are easily accessible, with a total bill of materials as low as $99. This open-source programmable pulsatile pump platform offers superior cost-effectiveness and adaptability relative to commercial offerings.
