    摘要: In one embodiment of the present invention, a cannula for use with a blood circulation device may include the cannula having a longitudinal axis and proximal and distal directions along the longitudinal axis. The cannula may also include a proximal portion having a wall extending around the longitudinal axis and having outer and inner faces, the inner face may define a bore, the proximal portion may have dimensions transverse to the longitudinal axis, and the dimensions may be constant in the proximal and distal directions. Also, the cannula may have a distal portion having an outer face, continuous with the outer face of the proximal portion. The outer face of the distal portion may extend around and along the longitudinal axis, and the outer face of the distal portion may taper distally toward the longitudinal axis. The distal portion may include at least two openings extending from the outer face of the distal portion, which may merge with one another within the distal portion. Then, the openings may communicate with the bore of the proximal portion. One type of blood circulation device may be a ventricular assist device.

    摘要: The invention relates to a container (1, 1', 1") for a heart pump device (4, 8, 12, 17, 18, 19, 26) having a first accommodating space (3) for a compressible and expandable heart pump (4), wherein the first accommodating space (3) is bounded on a plurality of sides, in particular on all sides, by one or more closure elements (5, 5', 6, 6', 6") and is externally closed in order to prevent touching of the heart pump, wherein the closure elements (5, 5', 6, 6', 6") leave open an opening (7) for the passage of a catheter (8) from outside into the first accommodating space (3), wherein the diameter of the opening (7) is dimensioned in such a way that the heart pump (4) can pass through the opening only in a state in which the heart pump is at least partially compressed in comparison with the expanded state. For implantation, the heart pump can first be operated in the container (1, 1', 1") for test purposes while a rinsing liquid is supplied and can then be pulled into a lock element (11) through the opening (7) while being compressed.

    摘要: A ventricular assist device includes a stent for placement within a cardiac artery and arranged for placement, the stent arranged to have an open configuration defining a flow path, a rotor sized to fit within the stent and arranged for percutaneous placement the flow path, the rotor including a surface disposed about a central portion and angled with respect to the flow path and having a first plurality of magnets. A collar is sized for placement about the cardiac artery and includes a stator. A power source is coupled to the stator, and the stator and the rotor are arranged to rotate the rotor about an axis. A timing control module controls a rotational speed of the rotor. Accordingly, the surface of the rotor is arranged to move blood along the flow path in response to rotation of the rotor.
