This study showed that individual pulse duplicator features can have a significant effect on valve's responsiveness. The optimized versatile pulse duplicator replicated physiologic and pathologic aortic valve hemodynamic conditions, serving as a reliable characterization tool for assessing and optimizing aortic valve performance.
