An LVAD is a mechanical device that helps people when their heart is too weak to pump blood. An LVAD doesnât replace the heart. It assists the heart in pumping oxygen-rich blood throughout the body so that the organs and muscles can function properly. The LVAD system has parts that work inside and outside the body. Inside, a heart pump is attached to the left side of the heart. Outside, a controller, batteries, and driveline help to power and control the heart pump.
This device helps your heart pump blood to the rest of the body. What is a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)?
