1 Improved Mechanical Reliability of the HeartMate XVE Left Ventricular Assist System 
Francis D. Pagani, MD, PhD, James W. Long, MD, PhD, Walter P. Dembitsky, MD, Lyle D. Joyce, MD, PhD, Leslie W. Miller, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 82, Issue 4, Pages (October 2006) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 The previous inflow graft assembly unit of the HeartMate XVE was modified by the addition of a stitch at the commissure of the inlet valve (arrow) to strengthen the attachment of the valve to the graft material to prevent valve dysfunction and reduce the risk of disconnection.

3 Fig 2 (Left) Original inflow valve housing design. (Right) New inflow valve housing design with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sleeve to reduce suture abrasion and preclotting surface area, titanium cylinder for protection of the tissue valve and conduit, and two-point articulation to protect against tissue valve deformation.
