Hyperkalemia in Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Devices

Circulation Reports, 2021
Background: Both hypo- and hyperkalemia are associated with adverse events in heart failure patients. Their effects on patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) remains unknown. Methods and Results: The cohort included consecutive patients undergoing LVAD implantation between 2014 and 2018.

Optimal Hemodynamics During Left Ventricular Assist Device Support Are Associated With Reduced Readmission Rates

Circulation: Heart Failure, 2019
Background: Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy improves the hemodynamics of advanced heart failure patients. However, it is unknown whether hemodynamic optimization improves clinical outcomes.

A non-intrusive data-driven ROM framework for hemodynamics problems [PDF]

, 2020
Reduced order modeling (ROM) techniques are numerical methods that approximate the solution of parametric partial differential equation (PDE) by properly combining the high-fidelity solutions of the problem obtained for several configurations, i.e. for several properly chosen values of the physical/geometrical parameters characterizing the problem.

Optimal haemodynamics during left ventricular assist device support are associated with reduced haemocompatibility‐related adverse events

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2019
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy improves the haemodynamics of advanced heart failure patients. However, it is unknown whether haemodynamic optimization improves haemocompatibility‐related adverse events (HRAEs).

Relationship between device acceptance and patient-reported outcomes in left ventricular assist device (LVAD) recipients [PDF]

, 2019
The number of Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs) implanted each year is rising. Nevertheless, there are minimal data on device acceptance after LVAD implant, and on its relationship with patient-reported outcomes. We designed a cross-sectional study
