Abstract

Robotic Cardiac Compression Device In article number 2300464, Thanh Nho Do, Phuoc Thien Phan, and co-workers introduce a robotic cardiac compression device made from fluid-driven soft artificial muscle filaments for the treatment of heart failure. The proposed device can be wrapped around the failing heart and simultaneously produces radial, axial, and torsional movements, potentially augmenting the pumping function of the failing heart.
