Abstract

A novel intra-ventricular assist device (iVAD) was established as a new pulsatile assist device to address various disadvantages, such as bulky configuration and reduced arterial pulsatility, observed in conventional ventricular assist devices. Analyzed the native left ventricular stroke volume (SV) after iVAD support in vitro. The SV of iVAD was examined in a home-designed mock circulatory system (MCS) at different heart rates and drive pressures and the SV of a failure ventricle was examined with iVAD at 75, 90, 120 bpm and 120-180 mmHg drive pressure after iVAD support. Data pertaining to native left ventricular SV before and after iVAD support were compared. The native ventricular SV was improved by iVAD when its drive pressure (DP) was slightly greater than that of the mock system. Conversely, the native ventricular SV was decreased when DP was much greater than that (150 mmHg) of MCS. A high DP had a significant effect on SV. The proposed device improved the dysfunctional native left ventricular SV when DP of iVAD was slightly greater than that of MCS. However, iVAD reduced the SV when the drive pressure was greater than that of MCS.
