Left-Ventricular Unloading with a New Pulsatile Assist Device: the HIA-VAD System and its Influence on Myocardial Stunning

Summary To assess the mechanical unloading properties of a new pneumatic cardiac assist device (60 ml Medos® HIA-VAD®) and its possible influence on recovery from myocardial stunning we performed a study in 12 anaesthetized sheep. After left thoracotomy measuring transducers were placed and the assi...
