Transcatheter Left Ventricular Restoration in Ischemic Heart Failure and Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ischemic heart disease is the leading global cause of death and frequently progresses to ischemic heart failure (IHF) after myocardial infarction through adverse left ventricular (LV)remodeling. Surgical LV restoration improves ventricular geometry and function but is limited by invasiveness and inconsistent outcomes.

Heart phantom with electrical properties of heart muscle tissue

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2018
The weakened heart is supported by a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) to supply the heart muscle with oxygenated blood. In case the heart muscle recovers during LVAD therapy, the patient has to be weaned from the device.
