English term or phrase: cardiac replacement device
Mi chiedo se sia sda intendere solo come sinonimo di cuore artificiale o possa includere anche, per es. le valvole artificiali.

valve replacement devices


Explanation:
Nel sito dell'American Heart Association le valvole artificiali venivano indicate con quest'espressione.
Penso che nella terminologia medica la differenza sia chiaramente specificata. E'vero che "cardiac" e' un aggettivo che puo' riferirsi al cuore come complesso.
Indico l'indirizzo web di questo sito, forse puo'aiutare

Explanation:
Ho trovato questo sito che spero possa esserTi utile. Penso che nel caso di cuore artificiale avrebbero indicato "heart".

"Cardiac replacement, either by transplantation or with a mechanical ventricular assist device, is an alternative for select patients with end-stage heart failure when there are no other reasonable options."
