Abstract

The development of intractable congestive heart failure occurs in nearly 400,000 people annually, 1.2 and has a 35% one year mortality.3 An estimated 35,000 people per year could benefit from cardiac transplantation, yet less than 2000 donor hearts are available annually.4 In the remaining 33,000 patients there is a 50% one year mortality rate.5 For these patients, the alternative is an artificial heart, an intra-aortic balloon pump, or different variations of ventricular assist devices, however at this point these devices are temporary. Furthermore, they require percutaneous tubes or wires for transmission of energy from an external power source. Although experiments with a totally implantable assist device are planned for 1992, 6 problems with coagulopathy, strokes and infection still need to be solved.
