    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Cardiovascular Research
    • Surgical Innovation

    Context:

    • Investigating the feasibility of a new apparatus for thoracic implantation.
    • Utilizing animal models (calves) and human cadavers for adaptation studies.

    Purpose:

    • To assess the adaptability of a novel apparatus for integration into the human thorax.
    • To identify challenges and limitations hindering clinical application.

    Summary:

    • Experiments on calves and human cadavers were conducted to adapt the apparatus.
    • Key challenges identified include the inability to place the extrathoracic driving system within the thoracic cage.
    • Material degradation of the heart chambers poses a significant obstacle.

    Impact:
