HeartMate III

The HeartMate III is a mechanical circulatory support device, known as a ventricular assist device (VAD), used to help pump blood in patients with severe heart failure. It functions as a reliable, implantable pump that takes over the job of the weakened heart's ventricle, ensuring blood flows effectively throughout the body. Designed with advanced technology, it offers improved durability, reduced risk of blood clots, and allows for greater patient mobility. The HeartMate III can serve as a bridge to heart transplant or as a long-term solution when transplantation isn't an option, significantly enhancing quality of life for patients with advanced heart disease.
