Direct Cardiac Compression Devices to Augment Heart Biomechanics and Function by Bonnemain, Jean, del Nido, Pedro J., Roche, Ellen T.

“…However, current MCS devices are inherently blood contacting and can lead to potential complications including pump thrombosis, hemorrhage, stroke, and hemolysis. Attempts to address these issues and avoid blood contact led to the concept of compressing the failing heart from the epicardial surface and the design of direct cardiac compression (DCC) devices. …”
