MEDOS VAD System – one of the leading systems in Europe

The MEDOS VAD-System has been used in over 80 European centres. It was efficiently applied in over 650 cases and helped patients in an extremely life threatening situation.

The MEDOS VAD-System is a heart assist device for short- and medium term application. The use of a mechanical heart-assist-device offers the only chance for the native heart to regenerate and be bridged until the time of transplant, after maximum conventional therapies have proven unsuccessful.

A special feature of the MEDOS VAD-System is the multitude of individual pump chamber sizes, which assures an optimal care for all patients, from infants up to heavy weight adults.

The simplicity and efficiency of the systems in clinical application is of immense importance, as they are not used with routine applications. This is the main reason for the success of the MEDOS VAD-System.Years of experience as well as the competence and personal presence of employees during applications were the main reasons for the systems success.


The story of success continues:

Medos will continue to strengthen its position by introducing new products to the market; like for example our extended cannulae program. Our experience of nearly 10 years will help you to assure your patient the best possible patient care.

MEDOS VAD-System Components

The MEDOS VAD-System consists of a blood-pump, the so called ventricles, a driving system and the corresponding cannulae.

The MEDOS VAD-Ventricles can be obtained in varied patient related sizes. They are used to support one or even both heart chambers and are connected parallel to the heart with corresponding in- and outlet cannulae. The vad ventricles perform according to the principle of displacement and thus create a pulsatil blood transport.

The vad ventricles, which are placed on the abdominal wall, are pneumatically driven and are connected via a pneumatic circuit to the vad drive, a drive- and steering unit.
