Development and Preclinical Testing of the TORVAD Ventricular Assist System in Preparation for First in Human Implantation

PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE Due to the lack of donor hearts, an ever-growing number of patients receive a ventricular assist device each year. The TORVAD(tm) has the potential to address common complications associated with existing ventricular assist devices due to reduced blood trauma made possible by a unique low-shear piston pumping technology. This provides the valveless pulsatile flow TORVAD with the potential to improve patient management and reduce incidence of bleeding, neurological dysfunction, and strokes. (End of Abstract)

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
