 Total Artificial Heart (TAH) By:Jessica Blandin

Heart Failure (Congestive Heart Failure)  It is estimated that about 5 million Americans have congestive heart failure. There are about 550,000 new cases each year.  It occurs when the heart is unable to provide sufficient pump action to distribute blood flow to meet the needs of the body.  Treatments for it includes: dietary changes, exercise, medication. And sometimes it needs to be treated with a heart transplant.

Heart Transplant  Due to the increase of patients needing a heart transplant and the limited amount of organ donors it is difficult to obtain a heart transplant right away.  For patients with really critical conditions waiting for a heart donator is hard because they can die during that time span.  A total artificial heart can be a good option for them in while they wait for a heart donor.

What is a TAH? The TAH is used to bridge the time to a heart transplant. SynCardia CardioWest TAH

How does it work?

How does it work? (cont.)

How effective is it?  Statistics of post TAH transplant show that 75% of the patients are able to walk or move about and about 60% are able to walk a 100ft after two weeks following the implantation. In a study the overall survival to transplantation was achieved in 79% of patients receiving the TAH in contrast to 46% of the control group (control group had these qualifications: patients eligible for transplant, NYHA CHF Class IV, BSA range , and hemodynamic insufficiency).

Cost Effective  It is estimated that the cost of an artificial heart includes: are the surgical procedure, device and console, and continued medical surveillance. The estimated amount ranges from a low $100,000 to a high $300,000
