Heart pump device is the mechanical device that supports the functioning of heart and flow of blood in patients with weak heart. This device obtains blood from the lower chamber of heart and aids pumping it to the crucial organs. This process is the same as the tasks undertaken by a healthy heart. One of the popularly used health pumping device is the ventricle assist device (VAD). This device can be used in either one chamber of the heart or both the lower chambers of the heart, the cases wherein the ventricle do not perform healthily. Ventricles do not work properly.
These devices can be used during surgery or after the surgery until the heart recovers, till the time of surgery like heart transplant, or of the patient's body is not eligible for heart transplant, the device can prove to be a long term solution to assist the heart to perform better. The different types of ventricular assist device include left ventricular assist device (LVAD), right ventricular assist device (RVAD). Both of these devices if used simultaneously, is known as biventricular assist device (BIVAD). The left ventricular assist device is most widely used type of VAD, whereas right ventricular assist device is majorly used for short term-support to the right ventricle after heart surgery or LVAD surgery.Major Key Players of the Heart Pump Device Market are:
Abbott Laboratories, Abiomed, Terumo Europe NV, Medtronic PLC, SynCardia Systems LLC. Teleflex Incorporated, Berlin Heart Gmbh, Jervik Heart Inc., Reliant Heart Inc., and Cardiac Assist Inc., among others.
