Fifteen years of the first Brazilian Centrifugal Ventricular Assist Device for long term Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support

Abstract: More than simply being a review paper and telling the story of the development of a ventricular assist device, this paper aims to critically review changes in technical nomenclature and scientific positioning, taxonomy and its applications, therapeutic indications and the results of its application in patients. After 15 years of the first Brazilian Centrifugal Ventricular Assist Device, many things have changed for the better. Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support is a therapy consolidated as a safe and ef… Show more

“…Following similar principles of design and operation of the Spiral Pump, but aiming intracorporeal implantation, a new blood pump was developed to work as a long-term LVAD. The implantable centrifugal blood pump was conceived in 2006, being considered the first Brazilian centrifugal VAD, consisting of a conical shape ( Figure 2B ), and producing an axial profile to the resulting flow [ 11 ] . The axial component of the blood flow proved to be advantageous by avoiding areas of stagnation inside the pump, thus preventing the formation of thrombi and providing greater assistance.…”

“…The axial component of the blood flow proved to be advantageous by avoiding areas of stagnation inside the pump, thus preventing the formation of thrombi and providing greater assistance. The implant consisted of connecting the inlet cannula to the left ventricular (LV) apex and the outlet cannula to the descending aorta, with the pump being positioned inside the thoracic or abdominal cavity [ 11 , 12 ] .…”
