Bridge to Transplant with the SynCardia Total Artificial Heart
Similar to a heart transplant, the SynCardia temporary Total Artificial Heart replaces both failing heart ventricles and the four heart valves, eliminating the symptoms and source of end-stage biventricular failure. The immediate, high volume of safe blood flow provided by the Total Artificial Heart helps speed the recovery of vital organs, making patients better transplant candidates.
