In this project we formulate a model that describes the effect of such a device on the cardiovascular dynamics. We show that data for the pressure-volume relationship within a heart chamber that have been obtained experimentally can be reproduced quite accurately by our model. Moreover, such experimental data can help in calibrating unknown parameters that specify the characteris- tics of the pump. A key parameter turned out to be the extra friction that is encountered by the blood flowing through the heart pump.
