Brushless DC motors may enable smaller implantable hearts; leaves open LPM viability via velocity optimization for nonpulsatile designs.
To reduce the volume of linear totally implantable artificial hearts, the drive velocity of linear pulse motors must be increased, potentially through application to nonpulsatile artificial hearts.
Yamaguchi et al. (1996) studied this question.
