During exercise, cardiac output can increase, as much as eight-fold in world-class endurance athletes. If exercise is performed in the upright position, returning blood to the heart at this rate is challenging because the pull of gravity provides opposition.
Ventricular Assist Device Also known as Heart Pump A ventricular assist device (VAD) is a mechanical pump that supports heart function and blood flow in people who have weakened hearts. Overview These devices can support the function of the left, right, or both heart ventricles. Ventricles are the lower chambers of your heart.
