Artificial hearts are mechanical devices that pump blood for someone whose own heart has failed; they are typically used as a temporary measure until a donor heart is found or sometimes as a permanent solution.
I cuori artificiali sono dispositivi meccanici che pompano il sangue quando il cuore di una persona ha fallito, spesso come soluzione temporanea in attesa di un trapianto o, in alcuni casi, come soluzione permanente.
