About Realheart

Scandinavian Real Heart AB is developing a total artificial heart (TAH) for implantation in patients with life-threatening heart failure. Realheart® TAH has a patented design that resembles that of the natural human heart.

The artificial heart consists of a four-chamber system (two atria and two ventricles) designed to generate a physiological blood flow pattern that mimics the body's natural circulation. A unique concept in the medical technology world.

The heart should not only save lives, it should also give patients a continued good quality of life where they can continue with work, travel, leisure interests and other valuable things in life. With the vision that no one should die of heart failure.

Realheart is currently in the middle of animal studies and planning clinical studies on patients in 2024. Market launch is scheduled for 2025-2026.

"By supporting the Heart Hackathon, we have the opportunity to share our research and knowledge in the field of artificial hearts and at the same time learn from the new innovative perspectives of young students and researchers"
