Interventions

DEVICE

Symphony

The Symphony system has been developed for superficial implantation without the need to enter the chest. It allows for complete patient mobility and provides counter pulsation therapy for up to 30 days in hospitalized patients.

PROCEDURE

The operative approach is limited to an infraclavicular incision similar to that used for placement of a pacemaker

The vascular graft is surgically attached (anastomosed) to the subclavian artery. The symphony device is implanted into a pocket below the pectoralis muscle on the anterior chest and attached to the graft. The driveline is tunneled out through the skin and attached to the drive console.
