“…Alternative surgical methods for minimizing infarct expansion by supplementing the mechanical properties of the infarct region include myocardial patches [45] and support devices such as the Acorn passive cardiac support device. This is a mesh-like, implantable device designed to prevent progressive LV dilatation, increase ejection fraction, lower LV wall stress and attenuate LV chamber sphericity [18].…”

“…[16] The clinical data suggesting functional and clinical advantages associated with reverse remodeling have led to the development of innovative mechanical devices such as the Acorn passive cardiac support device [17]. This is a mesh-like, implantable device designed to prevent progressive LV dilatation, increase ejection fraction, lower LV wall stress and attenuate LV chamber sphericity [18].…”
