 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 11 Left ventricular assist device blood pump in the development of the status quo Keywords:: left ventricular assist device blood pump status A volume-type blood pump In the early development of the total artificial heart and blood circulatory support devices, pumps, since the main simulation of the human heart, so this period was mainly positive displacement pump blood pump. Volumetric flow blood pump is a bag of blood, controlling blood flow in the direction of the valve and power components. One-way valve allows blood from the import side the inflow and outflow from the export side, when the dynamic part of the squeeze blood bags, the bag of blood volume reduction, thus squeezing out the blood, similar to the heart contraction process; when the bag of blood pressure reduction in the blood will flow when the external blood bags, similar to the heart during diastole. Blood pump of the bags according to the structure can be pump into two categories: (1) bags in part by the easy to bend the membrane composition, the composition of the rest from the hard shell, known as diaphragm pumps, such as Toru Masuzawa the development of blood pump [1], Utah-100 total artificial heart in the blood pumps, Millner in the manufacturing of total artificial heart [2]. (2) bags of all is easy to bend the membrane composition, known as the capsule-type pumps, such as the Pennsylvania State University and 3M rehabilitation centers in the joint manufacture of artificial heart blood pump [3], Erik and other manufacturing-wide artificial heart [4]. Sac-type pump has three: ① pneumatic blood pump, relying on gas-driven; pump relatively large size, the power source is usually placed in vitro, a relatively thick tube through the skin. ② liquid driven by the electric pump; ③ depend directly on the DC brushless electric motor-driven pumps. In short, positive displacement pump drawback is bulky, difficult to implant; view of the l
