Surgical Clinics of North America, 1998
During the latter half of the twentieth century, physicians have had the capability to support the circulation with mechanical devices. This article gives an historical overview of those devices. Various devices and their complications are described and evaluated. Patient selection and clinical results also are discussed.

Annual Review of Medicine, 1978
We reviewed current concepts and techniques of cardiac assistance, including orthotopic and heterotopic cardiac allografting. Whereas intraaortic balloon counterpulsation has had the greatest clinical use, other techniques are now becoming available, including the implantable abdominal left ventricular assistance device, and much effort is being ...

Cardiac assist device infections
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2009Cardiac assist devices have emerged as an increasingly important option for circulatory support in patients with advanced congestive heart failure. Infection has been the leading cause of death with use of ventricular assist devices for the past 25 years, and continues to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality in this population.

Cognitive functioning and quality of life are salient factors in predicting mortality and morbidity in end-stage heart failure patients receiving cardiac assist devices while awaiting cardiac transplantation. This study focused on cognitive functioning and selfreported quality of life, neurological impairment, and depressive symptoms. Of 103 candidates

Left ventricular assist devices decrease fixed pulmonary hypertension in cardiac transplant candidates [PDF]
Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2007 ObjectiveFixed pulmonary hypertension is a contraindication for cardiac transplantation because of the increased risk of donor heart failure. We sought to determine whether left ventricular assist devices improve fixed pulmonary hypertension in cardiac ...

Dynamic computed tomography to determine cardiac output in patients with left ventricular assist devices [PDF]
Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2009 ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to develop and test a novel, noninvasive means of estimating cardiac output in patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices.MethodsBased on the indicator dilution principle, we estimated cardiac ...

Cardiac Assist Devices as a Bridge to Cardiac Transplant
AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1991The number of heart transplants being performed in the United States over the last decade has increased significantly. The supply of human donor hearts has not kept up with the demand. This situation has led to the development of means to support patient’s cardiac function until a human donor heart can be obtained.

A right ventricular cardiac assist device
Journal of Medical Engineering & Technology, 1981A good method of assisting the right ventricle of the heart has, up to the present, not been available. This paper presents a new approach to assisting the right ventricle of the heart which can be utilised independently or during cardiac surgery. Through implementation of this approach, and timed inflation and deflation of several types of balloon ...
