Limited donor organs and alternative therapies have led to a growing interest in the use of
blood pumps as a treatment strategy for patients with single functional ventricle. The present …

Limited treatment options for patients having dysfunctional single ventricle physiology
motivate the necessity for alternative therapeutic options. To address this unmet need, we …

Currently, no long‐term mechanical bridge‐to‐transplant or bridge‐to‐recovery therapeutic
alternative exists for failing single ventricles. A blood pump that would augment pressure in …

Currently available mechanical circulatory support systems are limited for adolescent and
adult patients with a Fontan physiology. To address this growing need, we are developing a …

An intravascular axial flow blood pump has suitable hydraulic characteristics for use to
augment pressure in the cavopulmonary circulation in Fontan patients. This study presents …

Failing single ventricle physiology represents an ongoing challenge in mechanical assist
device development, requiring pressure augmentation in the cavopulmonary circuit …

This study investigated the performance of a magnetically levitated, intravascular axial flow
blood pump for mechanical circulatory support of the thousands of Fontan patients in …

An intravascular axial flow pump is being developed as a mechanical cavopulmonary assist
device for adolescent and adult patients with dysfunctional F ontan physiology. Coupling …

To provide hemodynamic support to patients with a failing single ventricle, we are
developing a percutaneously inserted, magnetically levitated axial flow blood pump …

We are developing an intravascular axial flow blood pump to support adolescent and adult
Fontan patients. To protect the blood vessel, this pump has an outer cage with radially …
