Abstract
GAL PUMP. Ventricular support with a centrifugal pump (CFP) has been used increasingly for the treatment of cardiogenic shock. However cannulae and tubes for CFP are those of pneumatic ventricular assist system or usual extracorporeal circulation, being not proper to CFP. We developed new cannulae for ventricular support using CFP (BP-80). The new cannulae have inner diameter of 6 mm and maintain a pump flow of 2.0-4.2 L/min at pump speed of 1500-2750 RPM. The new cannulae may be useful to quick introduction of ventricular assist and stable maintain of a pump flow.
