The REPAIR project aims to develop innovative cardiac assist devices using liquid crystalline elastomers that enhance heart function. By integrating these materials with light stimulation, the project seeks to create tunable devices that can improve cardiac contractility in patients with heart failure and atrial fibril…
Heart Failure (HF) and Atrial Fibrillation (AF) are both associated with impairment of cardiac mechanical function.
To assist ventricular contractility in HF, left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have been developed and demonstrated able to reduce mortality in patients awaiting transplantation, but enormous disadvantages largely limit their long-term use.
In parallel, promising devices to mechanically assist atrial contractile function have been successfully tested in large animals but never…
