The
raw material of our INCOR® cannulas is purest medical silicone. This
top-quality material guarantees the highest bio-compatibility with
almost indefinite durability. The optimized flow behaviour in all
cannula components also guarantees minimal pressure losses through the
cannulas as well as least possible damage to blood components. The
cannulas' excellent flexibility allows them to follow the movements of
the native heart while the plastic interlinking in the bend area also
makes them extremely resistant. At those places where adhesion of the
surrounding tissue with the cannulas is desired (apex and aorta) velour
is the right solution. The snap-in fasteners permit a quick and
uncomplicated connecting method.
Inflow Cannula
 |
There are two versions of the INCOR® inflow cannula. The models differ in the length of the intraventricular section of the cannula and in the size of the Dacron ring.
This provides the possibility of ensuring that the head of the cannula comes to rest unhindered in the lumen of the left ventricle. Between the bottom edge of the crown structure and the myocardium (trabecula) there should still be a free seam of several millimeters. For implantations we recommend checking the wall thickness at the apex of the left ventricle and selecting the appropriate cannula.
Outflow Cannula
Through its flexible axial sectioning the outflow cannula can be adapted to different anatomical conditions.
