Abstract

The present application relates to an outlet graft for a blood pump as well as to a system comprising a blood pump and an outlet graft that is connected to an outlet of the blood pump. The outlet graft includes a first end opposite a second end such that a longitudinal axis is formed between the first and second ends. The second end is connectable to a blood vessel and a lumen with a closed cover. A first strip included in the cover extends parallel to the longitudinal axis and is made of a material that is of a higher contrast under x-rays than the cover.
