| What is the AbioCor Replacement Heart? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The
AbioCor Replacement Heart is a battery-powered system for patients
with heart failure or another serious heart disease. The AbioCor System
is intended for patients with severe heart disease who have a high
risk of death, and the disease could not be helped by drug treatment,
surgical treatment or other approved devices. The AbioCor Replacement
Heart is implanted in your body, where it takes the place of your
natural heart to keep the blood flowing normally through your body.
The AbioCor System has four main parts that are implanted inside your
body.
