Guidewire-based pressure measurement is essential for diagnosing coronary artery disease. However, the impact of the guidewire on local hemodynamics and diagnostic outcomes is not fully understood. In this study, we propose a generalized reduced-order model (ROM) to accurately predict the trans-stenotic pressure drop in arteries. A key advantage of this model is that the viscous term does not rely on empirical parameters, making it applicable to both scenarios with and without guidewire insertion, and across varying stenosis severities. The proposed model demonstrates good accuracy compared to 3D idealized numerical models, achieving an average prediction error of 3.61% for cases without a guidewire and 4.53% for cases with a guidewire. Furthermore, when applied to a patient-specific model, it achieves comparable or better results than previously published ROMs. Finally, this ROM is employed to investigate the shifting relative importance of different components of the trans-stenotic pressure drop at various stenosis severities, and to provide further insights into the guidewire\'s influence on FFR measurements.

Supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS) is an aortic malformation characterized by a narrowing of the ascending aorta, resulting in abnormal hemodynamics and pressure drop across the stenosed region. It has been observed that the pressure drops measured from Doppler ultrasound exams often tend to be higher than those obtained from invasive cardiac catheterization. These misleadingly elevated pressure measurements may drive the decision to refer patients for surgical treatment prematurely. Considering this strong clinical association, the purpose of this work is to develop a computational modeling approach using a two-way coupled fluid-structure interaction methodology to determine an accurate prediction of trans-stenotic pressure drop and to further highlight the discrepancy between the SVAS assessment methods. Blood is modeled using Navier-Stokes equations while the aortic wall is simulated by a composite poroelastic structure to represent the three main layers of the arterial wall. The relationship between aortic wall elasticity and the blood flow conditions is examined in varying levels of stenosis, ranging from mild to severe degrees of vessel diameter narrowing. A substantial overestimation of the traditional Doppler pressure drop measurement is observed, especially for severe stenosis levels. The simulation results indicate that elasticity of the aortic wall has a relatively little effect on trans-stenotic pressure drop for the range of mild to moderate SVAS cases, but predicted to have a profound effect for severe SVAS cases. Moreover, significant sensitivity to the pressure drop across the SVAS region from stenosis severity is observed.
