Mechanical Circulatory and Respiratory Support

Mechanical Circulatory and Respiratory Support is a comprehensive guide to the topic, pulling together information from global experts on the design and use of cardiovascular and respiratory mechanical support devices. The book's content is useful for biomedical engineers designing mechanical support devices, students in this field and clinicians who have an interest in learning more about how these mechanical assist devices operate. A number of chapters focus on the medical management of patients-both with and without mechanical support-providing engineers and clinicians with unique perspectives. It covers ventricular assist devices, ECMO, total artificial hearts, pump design, implementation and medical management, physiological interaction, wearable systems, evaluation and route to market. The technology is covered from the perspective of a stop gap until surgery, and also as a destination therapy. CFD modeling and blood flow analysis are included. Covers a variety of disciplines, from anatomy of organs and evolution of cardiovascular devices, to their clinical applications and the manufacturing and marketing of devicesEngineering and clinical perspectives are provided to assist readers in the design of a market appropriate deviceDiscusses history, design, usage and development of mechanical circulatory and respiratory support systems INDICE: Section 1.
