Artificial organs are human-made bioartificial devices, which are implanted or
integrated into individuals to replace or support natural organs. These include artificial
heart, kidney, pancreas, and cochlear implants. Biocompatible materials such as
polymers (polyurethane, polysulfone, and porous polypropylene), biologics, ceramics,
and metals are used to develop artificial organs. These organs are incorporated with
different technologies like sensors, biomaterials, and innovative delivery systems.
Artificial organs perform the function of the natural organ and help the patient to live a
quality life. In few cases, artificial organs are capable of eliminating the need for organ
transplantation altogether.
