One end of the Left Ventricular Assist Device is attached to the apex of the left ventricle; the other end of the device connects to the ascending aorta. The Left Ventricular Assist Device diverts blood from the weakened left ventricle and propels it to the aorta. A small external computer, the System Controller, monitors system operation. A driveline, which passes through the patient s abdomen, connects the implanted pump to the System Controller. The system is powered by a Power Module or Mobile Power Unit (MPU) that is connected to an AC electrical outlet, or by two HeartMate 14 Volt Lithium-Ion batteries.
