  • the MCS pump When in place, the MCS pump can be driven by an MCS controller to provide up to about 4.0 liters/minute of partial left ventricular support, at about 60 mm Hg. No system purging is needed due to improved bearing design and sealed motor, and the system is visualized fluoroscopically eliminating the need for placement using sensors.
  • the system may further include a sheath, which may be expandable, which allows 8 - 10 Fr initial access size for easy insertion and closing, expandable to allow introduction of 14 Fr and 18 Fr pump devices and return to a narrower diameter around the 8 Fr catheter once the pump has passed.

  • This feature may allow passage of the heart pump through vasculature while minimizing shear force within the blood vessel, advantageously reducing risk of bleeding and healing complications.
  • Distention or stretching of an arteriotomy may be done with radial stretching with minimal shear, which is less harmful to the vessel.
  • Access may be accomplished via transfemoral, transaxillary, transaortal, or transapical approach.

  • an impeller is located at the outflow section of the inlet tube drawing blood from the left ventricle 1114 and ejecting it into the ascending aorta 1116.
  • a motor is mounted directly proximal to the impeller in a sealed housing eliminating the need to flush the motor prior to or during use. This configuration provides hemodynamic support during high-risk PCI, for sufficient time and safety for a complete revascularization via a minimally invasive approach (rather than an open surgical procedure).
  • the system has been designed to eliminate the need for motor flushing, provide increased flow performance up to about 4.0 1/min at 60 mmHg with acceptably safe hemolysis due to a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) optimized impeller that minimizes shear stress.

Therefore, it was observed that to keep the velocity of the motor, e.g. rotational speed of a motor shaft, constant or approximately stable, the current supplied to the motor would need to change based on the pressure differential.
