Cardiac Rehabilitation in Patients with Left Ventricular Assistive Device (LVAD)

Journal of Medicine and Life Science, 2015
For severe heart failure patients who are refractory to medical treatments or who are unable to receive heart transplantationbecause of a shortage of donor organs, left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy could be a valuable option as not onlybridge to transplantation but also destination therapy.

Longer Baseline Left Ventricular Activation Time Is Associated With Lower Mortality and Lower Risk of Heart Failure Hospitalization in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Recipients

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 4, July 2026.
In patients undergoing CRT implantation, a longer pre‐implant LVAT was linked to better clinical outcome (lower risk of heart failure hospitalization and all‐cause mortality), suggesting that LVAT may help refine risk stratification after CRT. ABSTRACT Introduction Many patients do not benefit from cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) with current ...

A case report: corheart 6 biventricular assist device therapy for end-stage heart failure in dilated cardiomyopathy

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
Approximately one-third of patients with end-stage heart failure (ESHF) experience biventricular failure. Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are employed as a salvage therapy for individuals with advanced heart failure.

Patient‐Specific In Silico Prediction of Outcomes of Partial Continuous‐Flow LVAD Treatment in Peripartum Cardiomyopathy

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 6, June 2026.
Partial continuous‐flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD) treatment of peripartum cardiomyopathy provides greater functional improvement for higher than lower disease severity. The left ventricle and LVAD jointly generate ventricular output for mild functional impairment, where the left ventricular contribution decreases with increasing LVAD ...

Does Gastrointestinal Bleeding Increase the Risk of Thromboembolic Events in Patients Supported With CF‐LVADs?

Artificial Organs, Volume 50, Issue 6, Page 886-890, June 2026.
Gastrointestinal bleeding significantly increases thromboembolic risk. Higher risk was also seen in patients aged ≥ 50 years, Black patients, and those with older CF‐LVAD models. ABSTRACT Background Gastrointestinal bleeding is a common complication in continuous‐flow left ventricular assist device (CF‐LVAD) patients. Managing gastrointestinal bleeding
