In  vitro validation of a self-driving aortic-turbine venous-assist device for Fontan patients

The objective of this study was to evaluate the hemodynamic performance of a totally implantable integrated aortic-turbine venous-assist (iATVA) system, which does not need an external drive power and maintains low venous pressure chronically, for the Fontan circulation.
