Abstract

ReliantHeart (ReliantHeart Inc., Houston, TX, USA) HeartAssist5 (HA5) left ventricular assist device (LVAD) system is a miniaturized, implantable, second-generation axial-flow pump capable of long-term circulatory support in patients with end-stage heart failure. The device results to be the first continuous-flow LVAD ever implanted in human being. This compact axial-flow pump has been in development since 1988 named as MicroMed DeBakey [1] (MicroMed Cardiovascular Inc., Houston, TX, USA) whose design belongs to the second-generation pump category [2, 3].
