Abstract

In this article the trends in constructing and modelling of devices supporting the blood flow in the human heart will be presented. The latest Eurotransplant statistics report on the incidence of heart failure and the latest trends in the treatment of the failing heart will be presented in chapter one. Trends in developing ventricular assist devices and the number of implanted device types supporting the dysfunctional heart will be discussed in chapter two. Finally there will be shown a modelling method of the electromagnetic system of pulsatile artificial hearts with the research results.
