    Abstract: The present invention provides a cardiac assist device which exerts pressure against the epicardial surface to assist the heart in pumping blood. The device may form a pumping space adjacent to an epicardial ventricular surface and/or an epicardial atrial surface. The cardiac assist device may permit the fluid to come into direct contact with the epicardium. The cardiac assist device may include a flexible jacket which at least partially collapses when fluid is withdrawn from the pumping space.
