The SynCardia temporary Total Artificial Heart is the world's first and only FDA, Health Canada and CE (Europe) approved Total Artificial Heart. There have been more than 950 implants of the Total Artificial Heart, accounting for more than 230 patient years of life on the device.
Originally used as a permanent replacement heart, SynCardia's Total Artificial Heart is currently approved as a bridge to transplant for people dying from end-stage heart failure affecting both heart ventricles (biventricular failure).
Similar to a heart transplant, SynCardia's Total Artificial Heart replaces both failing heart ventricles and the four heart valves, eliminating the symptoms and source of end-stage biventricular failure. Unlike a donor heart, the Total Artificial Heart is immediately available at SynCardia Certified Centers and does not require expensive anti-rejection medication, which can cause subsequent complications.
