The HeartAttendant programs the controller and sets pump rpm and alarm thresholds. It collects and stores pump parameters when connected to the controller and enables remote monitoring via the Internet. It charges and reconditions the batteries and can provide electrical power from the wall. It eliminates the need for the Clinical Data Acquisition System and the Patient Home Support System. The new controller, in all modes, displays pump flow (L/min), current/amps, power/watts, rpm, and diagnostic and emergency alarms. The HeartAssist 5 is CE-approved in Europe. A new U.S. Food and Drug Administration study of the HeartAssist 5 as a bridge to transplant is being finalized.
“心脏助手”程序对控制器进行编程，并设置泵的转速和报警阈值。连接到控制器时，它会收集并存储泵的参数，并通过互联网实现远程监控。它可为电池充电和进行修复，还能从墙上插座供电。它不再需要临床数据采集系统和患者家庭支持系统。新控制器在所有模式下均显示泵流量（升/分钟）、电流/安培、功率/瓦特、转速以及诊断和紧急报警信息。HeartAssist 5在欧洲已获得CE认证。美国食品药品监督管理局关于HeartAssist 5作为移植桥梁的一项新研究正在收尾。
