    Abstract: A biventricular cardiac prosthesis has a flow balance control system to balance blood flow through the left and right sides of the prosthesis to maintain a patient's left atrial pressure within physiologic bounds. The prosthesis can be configured to have flow characteristics so that a signal representative of the difference in hydraulic pumping pressures on the left and right sides of the prosthesis is representative of the difference between left and right atrial pressures of a patient having the prosthesis implanted. This signal can be used as a control signal to drive the prosthesis so that left atrial pressure is approximately equal to right atrial pressure, and within physiologic bounds. A specific prosthesis includes left and right pumping sections, each having a blood pumping chamber and a hydraulic fluid chamber, with a reciprocating hydraulic pump driving systole alternately on the right and left sides. A hydraulic balance chamber is hydraulically coupled to the right hydraulic fluid chamber and an adjustable occluder varies flow resistance through the hydraulic coupling. The occluder can be adjusted based on the control signal to adjustably derate right side blood flow to achieve the desired pressure balance, or the occluder can be adjusted based on fluid communication with sources of pressure in the prosthesis that are representative of right and left atrial pressures.

    Abstract: Blood purification apparatus comprises a dead-end system in which blood from the patient is allowed to flow through one or more purification modules (4), such as a dialyser, a haemofilter, a haemoperfusion column and an oxygenator, into a resiliently walled reservoir (6), which is conveniently a standard blood bag. The direction of flow of the blood is then reversed by exertion of sufficient pressure on the bag (6) to push the blood back through the purification module (4) to the patient's circulation. Thus, since the reservoir is of variable capacity, being of resilient material for example, the capacity of the apparatus remains equal to the volume of extra-corporeal blood.

    Abstract: A method of optimizing a mechanical cardiac pumping device includes modeling the circulatory system of the patient who will receive the mechanical cardiac pumping device and identifying an operating condition of the native heart to which the device will respond. The model is used to determine the required blood volume to be ejected from the device and an initial estimate of the power required to be provided to the mechanical cardiac pumping device is provided in order to provide the required ejected blood volume. The resultant ejected blood volume is evaluated with data obtained from the model and the estimate of the power requirement is then updated. The above steps are iteratively performed until the power required to obtain the necessary ejected blood volume is identified. Possible variations of power and pumping rate that allow the mechanical cardiac pumping device to provide the required volume are determined and the variation that best matches the physiological constraints of the patient and minimizes the power required by the mechanical cardiac pumping device is selected. The steps are iteratively performed until the mechanical cardiac pumping device is optimized to respond to each desired operating condition of the native heart.
