The man who performed this task was named Demikhor. He was know for doing head transplants on dogs. In the 1950's the first artificial heart for humans was invented by Paul Winchell. In the year of 1982 the heat was first placed in a human. Winchell was actually a comedian, with little medical training. Model Jarrik-7 was invented by Robert Jarrik. A dentist named Dr. Barney Clark was the first person to be implanted with the model. From this time the artificial heart grew to be more successful within time. ]]> 2016-06-28 15:54:02 UTC https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115602596 10019317 https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115602997 The current technology for the hearts has recently been invented. The new machine is called "Carmat." It is a machine that uses cow parts to create a working healthy heart. So far the machine has been successful. ]]> 2016-06-28 16:01:18 UTC https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115602997 10019317 https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115603130 Artificial hearts are used to replace the two lower ventricles.

Near the ending where medicine isn't helping. ]]> 2016-06-28 16:03:46 UTC https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115603130 10019317 https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115603291 The cost consists of the surgery to have the heart placed, the device, and surveillance to make sure it is working properly. It is very expensive. The price can range from 100k to 300k per person. ]]> 2016-06-28 16:06:55 UTC https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115603291 10019317 https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115603412 There are other options to turn to, instead of immediately looking towards the artificial heart. You could get a transplant from a deceased donor.  The artificial heart is very expensive and many people are not able to afford the device or the procedure. The artificial is not a life saver, depending on the situation you are in. So you have to always look at all your options before making your final decision.]]> 2016-06-28 16:09:20 UTC https://padlet.com/10019317/8mh4ku038nvp/wish/115603412
