Endocarditis in left ventricular assist device

Intractable & Rare Diseases Research, 2016
Heart failure is one of the leading causes of death in developed nations. End stage heart failure often requires cardiac transplantation for survival. The left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has been one of the biggest evolvements in heart failure management often serving as bridge to transplant or destination therapy in advanced heart failure.

Modification of a Ventricular Assistance Device for a Hemiplegic Left Ventricular Assist Device Patient

ASAIO Journal, 2019
Neurologic events occur in up to 18% of patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The current form of the LVAD equipment is not suited to serve patients who are impaired by a stroke.
