Total Artificial Heart
A Total Artificial Heart is a medical device designed to replace the function of a failing human heart. It is used in patients with severe heart disease who are not candidates for a heart transplant. The device pumps blood throughout the body, providing essential circulation and oxygen to organs and tissues.
This artificial heart is typically made of biocompatible materials and is powered by an external console. It can be a temporary solution while patients await a transplant or, in some cases, a long-term option for those who cannot receive a donor heart.
