ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Temporary RVAD support following HM3 LVAD is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Temporary RVAD support occurs most frequently in INTERMACS 1 or 2 patients and those who require pre‐operative VA‐ECMO. In addition to higher post‐operative mortality, a significantly higher risk of both dialysis and stroke at 1 year post‐implant was observed in ...

MANNITOL AND EXTRACORPOREAL CIRCULATION
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1965 SUMMARY An investigation of the effects of mannitol has been carried out to evaluate its routine use in open-heart surgery. An in vitro study suggested that increased osmolarity produced by the drug reduced mechanical hemolysis. This was not confirmed in a controlled clinical study when mannitol was used in the pump prime.

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Donation after circulatory death (DCD) has emerged as a strategy to increase the donor pool for heart transplantation (HT). Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) patients represent a discrete and unique population. We sought to explore the early outcomes of DCD‐HT compared with donation after brain death (DBD) HT in LVAD patients. Methods

Extracorporeal Photopheresis in Dermatology
Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas (English Edition), 2009 Extracorporeal photochemotherapy or photopheresis is an immunomodulatory therapy that combines leukapheresis with phototherapy. Blood from the patient is processed to give a leukocyte-rich plasma, which is then treated ex vivo with a photosensitizer and ultraviolet A radiation before reinfusion back into the patient.
