Abstract:
The development of implantable ventricular assist devices?in particular, continuous- flow axial and centrifugal pumps?offers hope to many heart attack victims waiting for donor hearts. These autonomous devices are intended as a medium-term bridge to transplant, or, if enough progress is made, even as a permanent clinical solution. One challenge that needs to be addressed in the design phase of blood pumps is the elevated level of shear stress, and the hemolysis response of the red blood cells, w...     »
