Abstract
Electroactive Polymer-Based Cardiac Assist Device
E-CAD is an implantable electroactive polymer-based cardiac assist device that supports heart function via biomimetic, nonblood-contacting compression. Wrapped around the heart, it enhances contraction, consumes under 0.3 W, and uses a 0.3 mm driveline to reduce infection and thrombotic risk. Its energy efficiency and driveline design may address limitations of conventional support systems, including bulky power leads and thrombotic risk. More details can be found in article number 10.1002/202500076 by Si-Hyuck Kang, Amy Kyungwon Han, and co-workers.
