We present an acoustic method that detects pump thrombi located on the tilted pad of the HVAD rotor requiring ten times less mass compared to thrombi detected by power consumption alterations used in current detection algorithms. Assuming that pump thrombi are growing over several days, the presented method may detect PT much earlier thereby increasing efficacy of medical therapy and helping to avoid pump exchange.
