A multidisciplinary group has designed, fabricated, and evaluated an artificial heart. The heart consists of two smooth-surfaced sac-type pumps, two pneumatic power units, and an electronic control system. The artificial heart has been employed in 22 calves.

Over the past 50 years, significant advances have been made in the development of total artificial hearts (TAH). These advances have most recently led to a clinical trial of a unique, transcutaneously powered TAH.

AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1991
In the early 1800s, an awareness of potential ventricular failure stimulated interest in artificial heart replacement. In 1937 the first total artificial heart (TAH) was implanted into the chest of a dog by Russian physicians. The primary driving force for mechanical cardiac assistance developed from the necessity for circulatory assistance in order to

Physiology of the Artificial Heart
Biomaterials, Medical Devices, and Artificial Organs, 1975Numerous deviations from normal physiology formerly ascribed to artificial heart pumping actually resulted from experimental artifacts. Recent results indicate that infection, thromboembolism, pulmonary pathology, and renal deterioration could be considered mostly nonspecific artifacts of mechanical heart implantation.

The Artificial Heart Juggernaut
The Hastings Center Report, 1989The Artificial Heart Juggernaut In May 1985 a panel of experts urged the National Institutes of Health to resume funding to develop a totally implantable permanent artificial heart: Fully implantable ventricular assist systems, in which an auxiliary pump takes over the function of the diseased ventricle, may be beneficial for some patients; for other ...

Artificial hearts. Permanent and temporary
Health Policy, 1986A little more than three years ago, at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Dr. William DeVries implanted a Jarvik-7 artificial heart in a 61-year-old patient named Barney Clark. The patient lived 112 days with the device before succumbing to renal failure, infection, and pseudomembranous colitis.1 His stormy clinical course had been marked by ...

A significant medical event is expected in 1992: the first human use of a fully implantable, long-term cardiac assist device. This timely volume reviews the artificial heart program--and in particular, the National Institutes of Health's major investment--raising important questions.The volume includes: Consideration of the artificial heart versus ...
