Supports proof-of-concept for novel electromechanical TAH in calves; leaves open durability and human translation.
A newly developed electromechanical total artificial heart based on a circular rolling-cylinder mechanism demonstrated feasibility by achieving 96 hours of survival in a calf model.
Min et al. (1990) studied Total heart replacement (animal model) (n=1). Electromechanical total artificial heart (circular rolling-cylinder mechanism) was evaluated on Survival. Implantation of a new circular rolling-cylinder electromechanical total artificial heart in a calf achieved 96 hours of survival.
