Impella RP as a bridge to cardiac transplant for refractory late right ventricular failure in setting of left ventricular assist device

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Right ventricular (RV) failure remains a major complication after surgical implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). While the use of a percutaneous RV assist device has been described as a short‐term bridge to recovery in end‐stage heart ...
