Total Artificial Heart vs Left Ventricular Assist Device and Biventricular Assist Device
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular SurgeryBiventricular heart failure remains a challenging issue in patients with end-stage cardiomyopathy requiring mechanical circulatory support options. Also, the Achilles heel of durable left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) remains right ventricular failure that significantly impacts morbidity and mortality.

Mechanical Devices to Assist the Failing Heart
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1967This is a very timely monograph written by the top investigators in this field. In the welter of publicity that has surrounded initial trials of assisted circulation, the actual status and objectives of investigators in this field may be obscured. This monograph provides sufficient information and background on assisted circulation for both researchers
