Sažetak
In recent years, ventricular assist devices (VAD) and total artificial hearts (TAH) had become unrivalled tools for replacing a failed heart. Heart pumps are typically used to bridge the time to heart transplantation, or to permanently replace the heart in case heart transplantation is impossible.Through previous development and implementation, it was observed that pumps with continuous-flow output cause less blood damage and have superior properties than volumetric pumps with pulsating output. Further research aims to improve pump design in order to achieve greater hemocompatibility. Aim of the research is to develop bladeless centrifugal pump design for total artificial heart by adaptation of principles of Tesla pump.
