Ein Forschungsteam der Medizinischen Universität Wien, des Universitätsklinikums Hamburg-Eppendorf und der Eidgenössischen Technischen Hochschule Zürich (ETH Zürich) hat eine Miniatur-Blutpumpe zur Behandlung von Kindern mit angeborenen Herzfehlern entwickelt. Diese neue Miniaturpumpe transportiert aktiv Blut aus den Venen des Körpers in die Lunge und ersetzt so funktional den fehlenden rechten Ventrikel. Wenn die Pumpe für den Einsatz am Menschen zugelassen wird, wird sie viele Leben retten.



A research team from the Medical University of Vienna, the University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) has developed a miniature blood pump for the treatment of children with congenital heart defects. This new miniature pump actively transports blood from the body's veins to the lungs, thus functionally replacing the missing right ventricle. If approved for human use, the pump will save many lives.
