Patent number: 10398819Abstract: An implantable blood pump includes a control unit storing patient specific settings. The control unit is configured to store patient specific settings. The patient specific settings can be used to determine a target operating speed for the blood pump and/or a target operating mode for the blood pump. The patient specific settings can include at least one of an operating mode for the pump, a set speed for the pump, a lower speed limit for the pump, a patient hematocrit value, a patient hematocrit date, a patient blood density, and a periodic log rate for event and periodic data.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2018Date of Patent: September 3, 2019Assignee: TCI LLCInventors: Denise Angwin, Brian Kimball, Christian Schade, Patrick Kopson

Patent number: 10207039Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for an updatable blood pump are disclosed herein. The blood pump can be part of a mechanical circulatory support system that can include a system controller and the blood pump. The blood pump can include a rotary motor and a control unit that can communicate with the system controller. The system controller can initiate the update process and can provide the update to the blood pump. Upon initiation of the update process, the control unit can stop the rotary motor. While the rotary motor is stopped, the blood pump can be updated. At the completion of the update, the rotary pump can be restarted.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2018Date of Patent: February 19, 2019Assignee: TC1 LLCInventors: Christian Schade, Brian Kimball, Patrick Kopson
