Definition
 An artificial heart is the long
term replacement of the
Original heart, if the heart
does not work properly. It is
implanted in human body to
replace the biological heart.
 Also known as “ventricular
assist devices (VADs) or TAH”
 Dr. John Heysham Gibbon
 Heart-lung machine
 Harper University Hospital
(Sep 29, 1903 – Feb 5, 1973)
AbioCor
 The AbioCor is the artificial heart is
developed by Abiomed .The AbioCor heart,
which is composed of titanium and plastic,
connects to four locations:
 Right atrium
 Left atrium
 Aorta
 Pulmonary artery
Jarvik 7

Robert Jarvik, MD is widely
known as the inventor of the first
successful permanent artificial
heart, the Jarvik 7.
In 1982, the first implantation of
the Jarvik 7 in patient Barney
Clark caught the attention of
media around the world.
There are two reasons that we need TAH:
 It
stays you alive while you wait for
transplant.
 You may benefit from a total artificial heart
(TAH) if both of your ventricles don't work
due to end-stage heart failure.
The risks for surgery include:
 Bleeding
 Infection
 Heart attack
 Irregular heartbeat
 Diseases :Cancer, kidney failure, Multi- organ
failure etc.
 If your both ventricles are not working.
 If
you're waiting for a heart transplant, a TAH
can help you survive longer.
 It also can improve your quality of life.

Maintain model of the pump and patient continuously
evaluates the available estimates of variables .

The Machine Evaluate the status and history of Patient,
validity of Information.

Supervisor of the Surgery uses optimization algorithm to
determine the reference speed.

It also estimates the operating status of artificial heart.

It is used to calculate total protein level of patient before,
after and during the implantation of artificial heart. And
also diagnose heart disease through Machine.

Changing the pumping speed of the heart to handle your
changing activity levels

Heart disease has appeared as the main cause of death in Pakistani rural
as well as in urban areas.
These devices are used in Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) .

 On October 27, 2008, French professor and
leading heart transplant specialist Alain F.
Carpentier announced that a fully
implantable artificial heart will be ready for
clinical trial by 2011 and for alternative
transplant in 2013.
