RBTS engineering has been instrumental in design,development, prototype manufacturing, and testing of advanced technology systems for medical applications, such as implantable human heart-assist blood pumps.
Victor Obeid (RBTS) and Robert Jarvik, MD.
RBTS has worked on over a dozen mechanical circulatory support device programs ranging in size from infant to adult applications. RBTS activities range from bearings design and rotordynamics on LVAD devices to subassemblies design, fabrication, prototyping and testing of LVADs and the Fontan Pumps.
Recent advances in manufacturing technologies and material science present opportunities for improved designs eliminating thrombosis,and reducing hemolysis from existing pump designs,while providing higher efficiency and cooler operation.
