The Role of Patients' Treatment Expectations in Ventricular Assist Device Support: Results From a Convergent Mixed Methods Study

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This mixed methods study aimed to: (i) identify treatment expectations held by individuals with a ventricular assist device (VAD), (ii) assess the extent to which these expectations have been met, and (iii) examine how treatment expectations relate to VAD‐specific health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) ABSTRACT Objectives Treatment expectations ...

Shaping the Flow: Impact of Blade Shape on Performance and Hemocompatibility in Rotodynamic Blood Pumps

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Blade shapes (leading‐edge geometry and thickness) in rotodynamic blood pumps were systematically evaluated. Thinner blades improve pump efficiency by reducing blockage effects, while neither blade thickness nor leading‐edge geometry shows clear hemocompatibility benefits. Overall, blade shape has a limited impact on hemocompatibility, indicating it is

National Practice Patterns of VA ECMO and Left Ventricular Mechanical Unloading for Cardiogenic Shock

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Consensus surrounding the management of VA ECMO and left ventricular mechanical unloading for cardiogenic shock (CS) is limited. We thus conducted a national survey of practice patterns in the treatment of CS to characterize such variability, finding large heterogeneity in CS diagnosis, VA ECMO initiation, and LVMU strategies.

When Machine Perfusion Falls Short: Identifying Risks of Liver Graft Failure After Normothermic Machine Perfusion

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Analysis of 4928 normothermic machine perfusion liver transplants reveals that recipient factors, particularly MELD ≥ 35, surgical complexity, ICU status, and functional impairment are stronger predictors of graft failure than donor characteristics, emphasizing the continued importance of clinical judgment in patient selection.

An Optimized Multi‐Stage Drainage Cannula Design for Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study utilized an extensive optimization involving n = 540 design of experiments to produce a superior drainage cannula design. Compared to the clinically used Maquet model, our optimized design demonstrated reduced blood stagnation volumes, increased cannula tip velocities, and higher upper body drainage, potentially minimizing risk of thrombosis

Geometry‐Related Technical Complications After LVAD Implantation: Impact on Device Dysfunction and Clinical Outcomes

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Preventable geometric failure modes, such as outflow graft kinking and inflow malposition, frequently cause HeartMate 3 dysfunction. This study identifies these complications as key drivers of device‐related morbidity, highlighting the importance of optimized surgical positioning to ensure long‐term device performance and improved clinical outcomes ...
