A heart assist system having an implantable pump conveying blood between two vascular locations and an extracorporeal system providing power and control signals to the pump. The system also includes a communication link having an implantable portion coupled to the implantable pump, an extracorporeal portion coupled to the extracorporeal system and an isolation portion between the implantable portion and the extracorporeal portion that minimizes the transmission of movement and forces from the extracorporeal portion to the implantable portion. |
