Cardiovascular Dynamics Laboratory

Within the Cleveland Clinic Foundation's Department of Biomedical Engineering, the Cardiovascular Dynamics laboratory is pioneering treatments for heart failure.  We are investigating heart assisting devices such as left ventricular assist devices and an implantable total artifical heart. Advanced heart valves, devices that improve the heart such as the "Coapsys" and novel gene therapies are under development.

We strive to improve the health of patients with heart desease. Working with the support of the N.I.H., The Cleveland Clinic Heart Center, and industry we are advancing the treatment and understanding  of heart failure.
