Vollimplantierbare Blutpumpe

摘要

Due to miniaturisation of drive, control electronics and mechanical system together with the nested design of the connecting rod, dies, drive and mechanical control system in the passage of the approximately annular blood bags, the construction, according to the invention, of a fully implantable blood pump corresponds to an artificial heart (TAH-TOTAL ARTIFICIAL HEART) which permits the affected patient to lead a virtually normal life. Besides the advantages of the implanted part, disclosed in my applications OS DE 3602727, DE 3724810 and DE 3722161, with regard to haemodynamics (atrial, wind kessel and Anrep effects, central blood flow, flow in the same direction in the blood bags and valves, "physiological blood pressure course" and the like) and the advantages such as good fastening in the body of the patient, the construction according to the invention also has the advantage of an "extended Starling's effect" (according to the heart law of Frank Starling). Regulation of the stroke volumes is effected differently for each of the two functional units (50, 51) and hence for the two circulations. This regulation facilitates quick volume compensation between the two circulations (right-left balance).
