Implication

Pump flow pulsatility may guide Starling-like rotary pump control; leaves open clinical translation pending human studies.

Population

Validated numerical model of the cardiovascular system and implantable rotary blood pumps (n=30 simulations)

Intervention

Linear Starling-like controller using pump flow pulsatility as the feedback variable

Comparator

Other pulsatility measures (pump speed, current, and pump head pressure)

Outcome

Relationship between left ventricular (LV) stroke work and pulsatility measuressurrogate

A Starling-like controller using pump flow pulsatility provides a physiologically intuitive and stable method for regulating rotary blood pumps.
