Fluid dynamic characteristics of the VentrAssist rotary blood pump.

abstract：:The development of a ventricular assist device is depicted. The seven subprograms that make up the project are described briefly. Results obtained during the clinical assay showed that the new design of the input cannula working as a false auricle provides better efficiency, as well as a certain level of autoregulatio...
