CT of Left Ventricular Assist Devices
RadioGraphics, 2010Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have become an increasingly beneficial option for patients with heart failure, especially in light of the insufficient availability of donor hearts. LVADs have been used effectively in end-stage heart failure as a bridge to heart transplantation, as destination therapy for those ineligible for transplantation, or

Implantable Left Ventricular Assist Devices
New England Journal of Medicine, 1998Congestive heart failure affects about 1 percent of adults in the United States1 and is a contributing factor in over 250,000 deaths annually.2 It is diagnosed in 400,000 Americans each year3 and is the primary diagnosis for over 900,000 hospitalizations per year.4 In 1990 the age-adjusted death rate from congestive heart failure was 106.4 per 100,000 ...

Immunobiology of left ventricular assist devices
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2000The increasing use of implanted biomaterial devices has made it evident that no material is biologically inert. As a result of direct contact with elements of the blood circulation, such as during hemodialysis or after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, significant changes in systemic immunologic and thrombostatic functions occur.

Left ventricular assist devices
Heart, 2009Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) insertion in patients with advanced heart failure with deteriorating clinical status is life saving, and LVADs are now being inserted into an increasing number of patients with advanced heart failure. They were initially inserted as a bridge to transplantation, and the decreased availability of donor hearts means ...
