LVAD is a battery-operated, mechanical pump-type device that's surgically implanted
Introduction
.
Goal of LVAD: providing the patient with as close to a normal lifestyle as possible until a donor heart becomes available or, in some cases, until the patient’s heart recovers.

What Is The Problem?What Is The Problem?
An important challenge facing the increased use of these LVADs is the desire to allow the patient to return home.
An appropriate feedback controller for the pump speed
Ability to prevent the suction (which may cause collapse of the ventricle.)
![Page 4: Performance Analysis of a Feedback-Controlled Rotary LVAD](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56816722550346895ddba982/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why Controller?
Wide variation of the patient’s SVR:
varying levels of physical activity emotional changes
Control Approaches
feedback control approach using the heart rate to control the pump speed.
suction problem
using oxygen saturation of the blood for feedback control purpose requires implanted transducers limitations in respond to sudden changes in the patient’s blood demand.
New approach: use of pump flow as a feedback signal for controlling the pump speed

LV MODEL
•A fifth-order lumped parameter circuit model which can reproduce the left ventricle hemodynamics of the heart. (assumption: RV and pulmonary circulation are healthy)

LV MODEL
Preload & Pulmonary Circulations
Mitral Valve Aortic Valve
Aortic Compliance
Afterload
Compliance C(t) is the reciprocal of the ventricle’s elastance E(t).
The elastance describes the relationship between the ventricle’s pressure and volume:

Three! Different Modes Of Operation Of The LV
every mode operation within the cardiac cycle is modeled by a different circuit, and hence a different set of DEs.appropriately modeling : by appropriately modeling the diodes as nonlinear elements, it is possible to write only one set of differential equations, which describes the behavior of the entire model for all three modes. write only one set of DEs.

The solution is oscillatory in nature due to the cyclic nature of the terms C’(t)/ C(t) and 1/C(t)

Development Of Feedback Controller
Speed of rotation : The only available mechanism to control a rotary LVAD is to increase or decrease the speed of rotation of the pump in order to meet certain goals
typically related to the well being of the patient
A major challenge for over 15 years:Providing required cardiac outputSuction does not occur
![Page 19: Performance Analysis of a Feedback-Controlled Rotary LVAD](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56816722550346895ddba982/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Our method in control:
A full state feedback Controller may be developed if the hemodynamic variables can be continuously measured in real-time. However, current implantable sensor technology to achieve this goal does not exist. The pump flow state variable , on the other hand, is the only state variable that
can be measured in real time
In this study the pump speed is increased linearly untilsuction is reached while observing the pump flow signal. Thisdata shows that the onset of suction is characterized by several phenomena which include:
1- sudden large drop in the slope of the envelope of the minimum pump flow signal
2- Sudden change in the signature of the pump flow signal

Controller functions:
The controller consists of three basic functions . The first, labeled “Extract Minimum” will track the minimum value of the pump flow signal within each cardiac cycle.
The second, labeled “Calculate Slope,” will estimate the slope of the envelope of minimum values.
The third function, labeled “Speed Update” provides a mechanism for adjusting the pump speed based on the calculated slope until the maximum of the minimum pump flow signal is reached
