The last four decades of medical engineering have witnessed dramatic strides in mechanical support for heart failure patients, yet the medical literature is sorely lacking a comprehensive, up-to-date examination of these improvements and the current state of the field. Filling this gap, this book covers the clinical, technical, design, and relevant engineering aspects of all currently available mechanical circulatory devices. It offers a short synopsis of the historical development of this life-saving technology and explores future prospects and developments in laboratories around the world.
