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.

Prediction, prevention, and management of right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device implantation: A comprehensive review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are increasingly common across the heart failure population. Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a feared complication that can occur in the early post-operative phase or during the outpatient follow-up.

Mechanical circulatory support in the UK [PDF]

BMJ, 2007
In June the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) published welcome but bewildering guidelines for short term circulatory support with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) as a bridge to cardiac transplantation or recovery.1 Welcome because the guidelines will support funding of these devices but bewildering because few, if ...

Hemodynamics of Mechanical Circulatory Support

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2015
An increasing number of devices can provide mechanical circulatory support (MCS) to patients with acute hemodynamic compromise and chronic end-stage heart failure. These devices work by different pumping mechanisms, have various flow capacities, are inserted by different techniques, and have different sites from which blood is withdrawn and returned to
