Proposition of a passive levitation system utilizing thrust and magnetic force for a ventricular assist device
For circulation support in patients with heart disease, a miniaturized implantable ventricular assist device (VAD) is required. However, several issues such as hemolysis and miniaturization need to be addressed. The objective of this study is to develop a passive levitation system for an impeller wi...
