Is eliminating the problems often seen by professionals in the bridge to transplantation periods with left ventricular assist devices and biventriculares.
Among these include the right heart failure, the ventricular thrombus, intraventricular communications, and low blood flows. A new U.S. experience indicates that the introduction of completely artificial heart improved the rate of survival to cardiac transplantation and survival after transplantation.

To obtain the study data were not randomized, prospective five sites, using historical controls.
