Among selected patients receiving temporary right ventricular support, pooled survival to discharge was 60.4%, and separately pooled successful weaning was 60.6%. These descriptive estimates from 106 heterogeneous observational studies, predominantly involving concurrent left‐sided or biventricular support, cannot establish treatment benefit or ...
