Outflow monitoring of a pneumatic ventricular assist device using external pressure sensors
BACKGROUND: In this study, a new algorithm was developed for estimating the pump outflow of a pneumatic ventricular assist device (p-VAD). The pump outflow estimation algorithm was derived from the ideal gas equation and determined the change in blood-sac volume of a p-VAD using two external pressur...
