The Modern DeBakey VAD™ To Be Introduced For the First Time in the U.S. : HeartAssist 5™ Pediatric VAD Features Industry Exclusive Direct Blood Flow Measurement System
Date:9/30/2008

92 grams and measures just 2.8 x 1.2 inches. Because of its small size, it is one of the few pediatric VADs that can be implanted above the diaphragm in the pericardial space surrounding the heart, which reduces the risk of complications.

  • DeBakey will be honored multiple times during this week. On the evening of Oct. 1, Dr. Noon and heart assist device leaders will celebrate the grand re-opening of the International Center for Medical Technologies museum and hold an ISRBP presidential reception in honor of Dr. DeBakey

  • following afternoon at the opening session of ISRBP, Dr. Noon and associates will pay tribute to Dr. DeBakey and his lifelong accomplishments in heart surgery and the DeBakey VAD. There will also be a Tribute to Dr. Michael E. DeBakey and Awards Gala on Oct. 3.

  • 1995, with the help of Drs. DeBakey and Noon, MicroMed Cardiovascular was formed to license and commercialize NASA technology. The result of their work was the first human implant of a rotary ventricular assist device, the DeBakey VAD, in 1998.

  • the U.S., the HeartAssist 5™, formerly DeBakey VAD Child, is the only FDA-approved pediatric VAD and a bridge-to-transplant IDE clinical study is underway for adult use. In Europe, the HeartAssist 5™ is CE Mark approved for both adult and pediatric use. The HeartAssist 5™ Straight VAD is CE Mark approved for patients with previous surgeries or complicated anatomies. It is designed to be implanted through the less invasive left thoracotomy.
