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

History of mechanical circulatory support
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2000 End-stage heart failure exerts a tremendous impact on individuals and society in terms of personal and economic suffering. The development of mechanical circulatory support devices has been driven by the shortage of donor organs for heart transplantation. Collaborative efforts in the fields of surgery, medicine, and biomedical engineering, sponsored by
