Replacing hearts. Restoring lives.
BiVACOR® is a clinical-stage medical device company pioneering the development of a long-term therapy for patients with biventricular heart failure. Under the expert direction of its founder and Total Artificial Heart (TAH) inventor, Daniel Timms, PhD, and the guidance of two luminaries in cardiovascular surgery, William E. Cohn, MD, and O.H. (Bud) Frazier, MD, the BiVACOR TAH is currently undergoing an FDA-approved first-in-human Early Feasibility Study (EFS). Headquartered in Huntington Beach, California, with clinical offices in Houston, Texas, and international offices in Gold Coast, Australia, BiVACOR is committed to addressing the global unmet need of patients with end-stage heart failure awaiting transplant by providing the next generation of life-extending solutions. About the BiVACOR Total Artificial Heart (TAH): The BiVACOR TAH represents a paradigm shift in artificial heart design. The size of the BiVACOR TAH is suitable for most men and women (Body Surface Area >1.4 m2). Despite its small size, the BiVACOR TAH is capable of providing enough cardiac output for an adult male undergoing exercise. Using magnetic levitation technology, the same principle used in high-speed trains, the product features a unique pump design with a single moving part: a magnetically suspended dual-sided rotor with left and right vanes positioned within two separate pump chambers, forming a double-sided centrifugal impeller that propels blood from the respective pump chambers to the pulmonary (lung) and systemic (body) circulations. The TAH has no valves or flexing ventricle chambers, with MAGLEV making pulsatile outflow possible by rapidly cycling the pump's rotor. The non-contact suspension of the rotor via MAGLEV is designed to eliminate the potential for mechanical wear and provide large blood gaps that minimize blood trauma, offering a durable, reliable, and biocompatible heart replacement.
