Para-aortic blood pump device

A para-aortic blood pump device, comprising:

• a blood pump, comprising a pump housing, a blood sac, and a pressure sensor, the blood sac disposed in the pump housing, and the pressure sensor being installed in the pump housing for monitoring blood pressure inside the blood pump to generate an electrical blood pressure signal;
• an aortic adapter, being a T-manifold shaped conduit, coupled to the blood pump, and provided for integrating the blood pump with human aorta;
• a driveline, coupled to the pump housing of the blood pump, for transmitting the electrical blood pressure signal received from the pressure sensor;
• a driver, coupled to the driveline for receiving the electrical blood pressure signal, and comprising an electro-mechanical actuator to generate a pressure pulse according to the electrical blood pressure signal, and providing the pressure pulse to the blood pump through the driveline;
• a coupler for coupling the blood pump to the aortic adapter;
• wherein the coupler comprises a flange base, a pair of collars, and a hinge assembly that join together the collars with the flange base.
