Flow and Pressure Control
What is needed?
Pressure control at the inlet and outlet of the LVAD
What are the specs?
Inlet: -20 to 50 mmhg (-0.39 to 0.97 psi) Outlet: 0 to 150 mmhg (0 to 2.9 psi)

What is the proposed solution?
Integrate a ball valve before and after the LVAD, to be controlled by DC servo motors. A worm drive will also be implemented, and a sensor to aid in validating the valve position.
Flow and Pressure Control
Ball Valves:
• Easy to operate
• Can maintain & regulate flow • High volume
• High temp • High pressure
• Corrosion resistance (Brass/Bronze) • Full Port (Unrestricted Flow)
• Flow through the valve = valve pipe size
Flow and Pressure Control
Worm Drives:
• Increased torque at a decreased speed
• Ideal for small electric motors (high-speed/low-torque)
• Can be “self-locking” (non reversible direction of transmission)
Worm Drive System (mcmastercarr.com)
How will it be implemented?
The handle of the ball valve will be removed and the stem of the valve will be integrated into a worm drive system, powered by the electric motor. There will be a sensor (to be determined) put into place

All input signals will be shared between the two MCU’s. They will handshake With each other and with the Health Monitor. Only one MCU will be allowed to actuate the System at any given moment. The other will remain in sleep mode Until it is required to function. (i.e. if the first MCU fails).

Six Principles
of Heuristic Evaluation
PRINCIPLES
(Offers more specific direction than the more general set of rules when it comes to problem resolution)
1. Visibility
Keeping all needed options and materials for a given task visible without distracting the user with extraneous or redundant information
2. Feedback
Keeping users informed of actions or interpretations, changes of state or condition, and errors or exceptions that are relevant and of interest to the user through clear, concise and unambiguous language familiar to users 3. Structure
Organize the user interface purposefully, in meaningful and useful ways based on clear, consistent models that are apparent and recognizable to users.
Six Principles
of Heuristic Evaluation (Cont.)
4. Reuse
Systems should use language and structure in a consistent fashion Identical terminology should be used for
- Prompts - Menu
- Help screens 5. Tolerance
Reducing the cost of mistakes and misuse by allowing, undoing and redoing while also preventing errors
6. Simplicity
Make simple, common tasks simple to do, communicating clearly and simply in the users own language
Start Panel
Emergency Situations
• In Emergency Situations, the User Interface screen will go RED (also a auditory alert sound of 40-70 dBA) and immediately goes to the
maintenance program with a full and complete description of the problem. • Secondary system will also activate when the emergency situation arises
until the maintenance engineer arrives and deals with the problem.
• The maintenance engineer will have immediate access to all of the UI and have an full and descriptive procedure on screen to fix the problem.
