Abstract
The shortcomings of expense, power requirements, infection, durability, size, and blood trauma of current durable LVADs have been recognized for many years. The LVADs of tomorrow aspire to be fully implantable, durable, mitigate infectious risk, mimic the pulsatile nature of the native cardiac cycle, as well as minimize bleeding and thrombosis. Power draw, battery cycle lifespan and trans-cutaneous energy transmission remain barriers to completely implantable systems. Potential solutions include decreases in pump electrical draw, improving battery lifecycle technology and better trans-cutaneous energy transmission, potentially from Free-range Resonant Electrical Energy Delivery. In this review, we briefly discuss the history of LVADs and summarize the LVAD devices in the development pipeline seeking to address these issues.
期刊介绍：
The aim of the Journal of Artificial Organs is to introduce to colleagues worldwide a broad spectrum of important new achievements in the field of artificial organs, ranging from fundamental research to clinical applications. The scope of the Journal of Artificial Organs encompasses but is not restricted to blood purification, cardiovascular intervention, biomaterials, and artificial metabolic organs. Additionally, the journal will cover technical and industrial innovations. Membership in the Japanese Society for Artificial Organs is not a prerequisite for submission.
