A monitoring device for pressurised-air-driven diaphragm-based artificial heart assist devices [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Physics and Physiological Measurement, 1992
A non-invasive device has been developed to monitor the diaphragm position and the blood flow in artificial heart assist devices equipped with a pressurised-air-driven diaphragm. Light scattering from the diaphragm is used as a mechanism for measuring. Information about the position of several points of the diaphragm can be obtained.

Synergistic Model of Cardiac Function with a Heart Assist Device [PDF]

open access: yesBioengineering, 2019
The breakdown of cardiac self-organization leads to heart diseases and failure, the number one cause of death worldwide. The left ventricular pressure–volume relation plays a key role in the diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases. Lumped-parameter models combined with pressure–volume loop analysis are very effective in simulating clinical scenarios ...
