The design of the bileaflet ATS (ATS Medical Inc., Minneapolis, USA) mechanical valve incorporates an open pivot at the hinge mechanism. Total washout of the blood at the pivot area was observed using 3-D computational fluid dynamics modelling. This phenomenon could make the valve less vulnerable to clot formation in patients without major thromboembolic risk factors.
