Mechanical circulatory support for destination therapy [PDF]
Swiss Medical Weekly, 2016 Patients with chronic heart failure who are not eligible for heart transplant and whose life expectancy depends mainly on the heart disease may benefit from mechanical circulatory support. Mechanical circulatory support restores adequate cardiac output and organ perfusion and eventually improves patients' clinical condition, quality of life and life ...

Mechanical Circulatory Support [PDF]
Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2021 Abstract The definition of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) refers to a group of mechanical devices which can be added to the physiological circulation providing support or replacement of the heart and/or the lungs. This allows adequate blood flow and oxygenation in situations where pharmaceutical support is insufficient. To establish MCS we have

Mechanical circulatory support [PDF]
Organogenesis, 2011 Currently, almost five million Americans and 23 million people worldwide are living with congestive heart failure (CHF), with 2 million new cases diagnosed each year. The etiology is mostly ischemic, idiopathic, or viral, and more than $36 billion is spent each year on the care of congestive heart failure patients.
