Computational Simulation of Cardiac Function and Blood Flow in the Circulatory System under Continuous Flow Left Ventricular Assist Device Support during Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is high in heart failure patients supported by a continuous flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD); however, the long term effects remain unclear. In this study, a computational model simulating effects of AF

Pseudomonas aeruginosa left ventricular assist device (LVAD) driveline infection acquired from the bathroom at home [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
We describe a patient with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa acquired at home. The Pseudomonas from the driveline was similar to several surface cultures of the patient's home shower.

Extracorporeal support for right ventricular failure following LVAD implantation in a 5-year-old child: a case report

open access: yesВестник анестезиологии и реаниматологии
Introduction. Postoperative right ventricular failure is a dangerous adverse event in patients after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. The survival rate of such patients is extremely low.

Frank-starling control of a left ventricular assist device [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A physiological control system was developed for a rotary left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in which the target pump flow rate (LVADQ) was set as a function of left atrial pressure (LAP), mimicking the Frank-Starling mechanism.
