Abstract :
The present contribution deals with the development of a new concept of pulsatile magneto-activated pump devoted to mechanical circulatory support. On the bases of theoretical results, a functional demonstrator has been designed and built at the laboratory. Tests of this demonstrator are detailed showing the flow/pressure characteristics.
