| Research Abstract |
Before ventricular assist devices and replacement artificial hearts can be applied clinically, device performance must be evaluated. We developed a tester simulating bio-circulation in order to evaluate the stability of blood pumps across states ranging from resting to active. Automated load testers will prove useful in the development and evaluation of blood pumps, reducing the number of blood tests and animal experiments required.
