Man lives 100 days with artificial titanium heart in a first for medical science
An Australian man in his 40s survived 100 days with an artificial titanium heart before receiving a donor heart transplant, making medical history. The BiVACOR heart, developed by Dr Daniel Timms, uses magnetic levitation technology to mimic natural blood flow. This breakthrough offers a promising future for heart failure patients awaiting transplants and has been deemed a game-changer by experts.
