Robert Jarvik / 罗伯特·贾维克

Robert Jarvik / 罗伯特·贾维克 appears in 86.打开一颗心：那美好的仗，我已经打过了 as the artificial-heart figure [[StephenWestaby|Stephen Westaby / 史蒂芬·维斯塔比]] meets in 1995. The episode uses that meeting to move from ordinary cardiac surgery into Artificial Heart Bridge Therapy and left-ventricular assist-pump testing in the United Kingdom.

Jarvik’s role in this source is primarily connective: he marks the device-development lineage that made Westaby’s later artificial-heart and blood-pump cases intelligible. The episode keeps the emphasis on patients such as Ebol, Ralph, Julie, and children waiting for transplant, where mechanical support can extend life while also exposing bleeding, stroke, infection, and ICU-system risk.

Connections

• [[StephenWestaby|Stephen Westaby / 史蒂芬·维斯塔比]] - surgeon whose artificial-heart project the episode follows.
• Artificial Heart Bridge Therapy - concept branch opened through donor scarcity and assist-pump use.
• [[AB180BloodPump|AB180 blood pump]] and Medical Device Clinical Validation - adjacent device and validation frames.
• High-Risk Surgical Innovation - broader source pattern around clinical use before routine certainty.
