Mechanical Circulatory Support for Right Ventricular Failure [PDF]
Cardiac Failure Review, 2022 Right ventricular (RV) failure is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, with in-hospital mortality rates estimated as high as 70–75%. RV failure may occur following cardiac surgery in conjunction with left ventricular failure, or may be ...

Kidney Function Trajectories With Mechanical Circulatory Support [PDF]
Kidney International ReportsIntroduction: Adverse long-term kidney outcomes with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are common but little understood. Creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is used clinically in this setting; however, it is of uncertain ...

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
