Problems solved by technology

The continuous axial flow design pumps blood into the aorta throughout the cardiac cycle, which can easily cause aortic valve regurgitation and induce heart failure.
In addition, vascular anastomosis must be performed after cardiac arrest with the support of extracorporeal circulation, the surgical operation will cause damage to the heart itself, the implantation process is relatively complicated, and the maintenance cost of equipment is expensive. These are the shortcomings that the current LVAD cannot be widely used clinically.

Abstract

The invention discloses an external left ventricular auxiliary device, which relates to the field of medical equipment. The ventricular auxiliary device comprises a heart stent, a heart extrusion filmand an inflating and deflating device, wherein the heart stent is used for sleeving the surface of the heart and is made of an elastic material; the heart extrusion film is arranged on the inner wallof the heart stent, and the heart extrusion film is provided with a plurality of shielding area non-extrusion parts covering a coronary artery running area of the heart and a plurality of expandableor contractible extrusion parts; and the inflating and deflating device is used for driving each extrusion part to expand or contract. The external left ventricular auxiliary device can be implanted into epicardium through a minimally invasive surgery to achieve the effect of assisting ventricular contraction, can be removed through interventional surgery or a thoracoscope without damaging an original anatomical structure, and can avoid complications generated by the traditional left ventricular auxiliary device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of medical equipment, in particular to an extraventricular left ventricular assist device. Background technique [0002] Chronic heart failure (CHF) poses a serious medical and economic burden worldwide. Although advances in medical therapy and cardiac resynchronization therapy have improved CHF symptoms and quality of life and reversed some myocardial remodeling, many patients eventually develop medically intractable end-stage CHF even while receiving optimal medical therapy . The best treatment option for end-stage CHF is heart transplantation, however the shortage of donor organs requires alternative treatment strategies. The left ventricular assist device (Left Ventricular Assist Device, LVAD) as a bridge to transplantation or the ultimate goal of treatment has become an increasingly acceptable treatment strategy for these patients. [0003] LVADs have grown considerably over the past few decades and ...
