An artificial heart is a mechanical device designed to replace the heart&#8217;s pumping action when it fails to do so naturally. The device is surgically implanted in the chest and takes over the heart\u2019s role<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as it replaces t<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">he ventricles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to several <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/total-artificial-heart\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">studies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by the U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), a total artificial heart can replace the damaged ventricles and help pump blood to the lungs and the rest of the body<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This allows<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> patients with severe heart failure to maintain circulation while waiting for a transplant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This device functions as an <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">artificial heart pump<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, helping push blood to the lungs for oxygen and then circulate it throughout the body. For proper blood flow, the system also uses components similar to an <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">artificial heart valve<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By maintaining steady blood circulation, an artificial heart can support patients with severe heart failure while they await further treatment, such as a heart transplant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In certain treatment plans, the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">artificial pacemaker of heart<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may also be used to regulate abnormal heart rhythms and support overall cardiac function.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_an_Artificial_Heart_Work\"><\/span><b>How Does an Artificial Heart Work<\/b><b>?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To understand how this device works will require us to look at how it mimics the heart\u2019s natural pumping process. These are designed to replicate the ventricles&#8217; role and maintain steady blood circulation throughout the body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are a few things it does:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Ventricle_Replacement\"><\/span><b>1. Ventricle Replacement<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a natural heart, the ventricles pump blood to the lungs and the rest of the body. This device replaces these pumping chambers when they become severely damaged. Once an artificial heart is implanted in the chest, it takes over the function of moving blood through the circulatory system.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Controlling_the_Blood_Flow\"><\/span><b>2. Controlling the Blood Flow<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Artificial hearts contain specially designed valves that help regulate the blood flow direction. These artificial valves work in a similar way to natural ones and help open and close themselves with each pump cycle. Different <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">types of artificial heart valves<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are not used as valves are integrated within the artificial heart <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to ensure the blood moves efficiently without flowing backwards.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Powered_By_an_External_Driver\"><\/span><b>3. Powered By an External Driver<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The artificial heart is powered by a machine known as a driver. This device sends pneumatic pressure through tubes connected to the artificial heart, allowing it to pump blood in rhythmic cycles that resemble a natural heartbeat.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Continuous_Blood_Circulation_Process\"><\/span><b>4. Continuous Blood Circulation Process<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With each pump cycle in the device, blood is pushed to the lungs to pick up oxygen, then circulated to the rest of the body through the arteries. Many modern systems use a portable driver, which allows patients greater mobility while the artificial heart maintains continuous blood circulation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Artificial_Heart_Cost_What_Determines_Its_Price\"><\/span><b>Artificial Heart Cost<\/b><b>: What Determines Its Price?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">artificial heart cost<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can be significant because the procedure involves advanced medical technology, specialised cardiac surgery, and intensive post-operative care.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Globally, the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cost of an artificial heart transplant<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can range from $100,000 to over $200,00<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">0, dep<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ending upon the technology used and the complexity of the surgery.
