TRANSCUTANEOUS MAGNETIC ENERGY TRANSFER DEVICE

摘要

Transcutaneous magnetic energy transfer to drive a VAD or other implanted medical device can be supplied through two spinning (or otherwise moving) permanent magnets, or a moving permanent magnet and a moving ferric material, or a moving permanent magnet and a coil or an array of coils, One part is implanted under the patient's skin, so that the skin does not have to be broken for a connection to take place.
