Ventricular function under LVAD support

, 2012
This thesis presents a finite element methodology for simulating fluid–solid interactions in the left ventricle (LV) under LVAD support. The developed model was utilised to study the passive and active characteristics of ventricular function in ...

Mechanistic assessment and ablation of left ventricular assist device related ventricular tachycardia in patients with severe heart failure

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Aims: Left-ventricular-assist-devices (lvad) are an established treatment for patients with severe heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HF) and reduce mortality.

Socio‐economic inequalities and heart failure morbidity and mortality: A systematic review and data synthesis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 927-941, April 2025.
Abstract Socio‐economic status (SES) has been associated with incident and prevalent heart failure (HF), as well as its morbidity and mortality. However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 839-847, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

Changes in eligibility for a subcutaneous cardioverter-defibrillator after implantation of a left ventricular assist device-A prospective analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2023
BackgroundThe number of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) implanted in patients with end-stage heart failure is increasing. In this patient cohort, subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators (S-ICDs) could be a promising alternative to ...

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1045-1058, April 2025.
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Assessing stress in LVAD recipients: Development of the LVAD Stress Questionnaire

The International Journal of Artificial Organs
Background: Patients receiving left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation can experience significant psychological stress that negatively impacts quality of life and treatment outcomes. Assessment of LVAD stress is critical for providing targeted interventions and advancing the relevant literature.
