State of the art: implantable ventricular assist devices
Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 2009The first generation of implantable pulsatile ventricular assist devices (VADs) has proven to be successful as bridge to transplantation. Adverse events such as mechanical failure and infections, however, limit their use for long-term support (>1 year) or as alternative for heart transplantation.

Perioperative Echocardiographic Examination for Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2007Ventricular assist devices (VADs) are systems for mechanical circulatory support of the patient with severe heart failure. Perioperative transesophageal echocardiography is a major component of patient management, and important for surgical and anesthetic decision making.

Implantation of a left ventricular assist device in situs inversus
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002A 42-year-old man with situs inversus was referred to our institution because of end-stage ischemic cardiomyopathy. Cardiac arrest occurred after admission, and the patient underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation. An extracorporeal left ventricular assist device (Berlin Heart) was implanted as a bridge to transplantation.

Ventricular Assist Device Implantation: Perioperative Nursing Considerations
AORN Journal, 2016AbstractTreatment for patients in end‐stage heart failure has been revolutionized by the development of the ventricular assist device (VAD), an implantable heart pump used for long‐term mechanical circulatory support. These devices are now small, lightweight, and efficient continuous‐flow pumps that have replaced the larger, heavier, fill‐to‐empty ...
