    Effect of counter-pulsation control of a pulsatile left ventricular assist device on working load variations of the native heart

    When using a pulsatile left ventricular assist device (LVAD), it is important to reduce the cardiac load variations of the native heart because severe cardiac load variations can induce ventricular arrhythmia....
