Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A total artificial heart system includes at least one artificial ventricle coupled to (or capable of being coupled to) a chamber or a vessel of a human heart and at least one drive system coupled to the artificial ventricle. The drive system contains at least one implanted in a chest cavity electric motor. The drive system causes the artificial ventricle to contract and/or expand in a specific fashion dependent on a value inversely proportional to a rotational speed of a rotorcam and/or a height of the cam follower of the heart system.
