Abstract
System structured to facilitate a movement of a myocardial wall by pushing such wall with a force originated due to energy harvested by the system from a motion of a ventricular chamber without the use of any external energy. The system includes two pliable storage volumes fluidly interconnected by a passage to form a closed circuit that enables a movement of the fluid from one storage volume to another in response to a user input. Optionally, one of the storage volumes is encased in a cover characterized by a spatially-non-uniform distribution of elastic properties. The method of using the system includes juxtaposition of one of the storage volumes with a ventricular chamber and another of the storage volumes with a targeted myocardial wall to enable reversible flow of fluid within the system during a cardiac cycle.
