Abiomed BVS 5000
Abiomed · Model BVS 5000
Can be supported by all Abiomed Console technology: AB5000™, BVS® 5000, BVS® 5000i, and BVS® 5000t. Off ers LVAD, RVAD, and BiVAD support. Dual-chamber design allows safe, complete ventricular decompression and continuous, passive, gravity assisted drainage of the heart. The BVS® 5000 Blood Pump connects with all Abiomed Cannulas to facilitate “closed chest transition” to the longer-term AB5000™ Ventricle. Design allows pulsatile flow providing both cardiac and systemic perfusion. Improved reimbursement for recovery Can be used in the following cases. Donor heart dysfunction or donor heart failure after heart transplantation. Right-sided heart failure after placement of a left ventricular assist device. Acute heart attack. Acute heart disorders, such as viral myocarditis. Trauma to the heart. Disease of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy). In patients whose hearts have not recovered after temporary support, the BVS 5000 may be used as a bridge to another device or as a bridge to heart transplantation.
