Development of a control unit and power source for an implantable assisted circulation pump is discussed. The device for left ventricle assistance was developed in the Shumakov Federal Scientific Center for Transplantology and Artificial Organs, Moscow State Institute of Electronic Engineering, and BIOSOFT-M, Ltd. The device provides a basis for a safe portable pacemaker meeting the requirements of extracorporeal circulation systems (ECS). The aspects of engineering, structural, and software support of the system are discussed. An implanted axial pump (IAP) of the ECS for artificial left cardiac ventricle (ALCV) is considered.
