A new right ventricular assist device for right ventricular support [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2003
Right ventricular support by mechanical devices for postcardiotomy right heart failure is still associated with a high mortality. We report on the first use of a new paracardiac microaxial blood pump for postcardiotomy right heart failure in two patients undergoing emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (the first patient for a myocardial infarction

Biventricular assist devices and total artificial heart: Strategies and outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
In contrast to the advanced development of the left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy for advanced heart failure, the mechanical circulatory support (MCS) with biventricular assist device (BVAD) and total artificial heart (TAH) options remain ...

PulseCath(R) as a right ventricular assist device [PDF]

open access: yesInteractive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2011
The PulseCath(®) is a pulsatile pump that offers a circulatory support up to 3 l/min. The PulseCath(®) is indicated for patients who require a higher degree of support than that offered by the intra-aortic balloon pump. We describe the first two cases of the use of the PulseCath(®) as a temporary support for the right ventricle after insertion through ...

Hybrid closure of ventricular septal defect and implantation of systemic right ventricular assist device

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2022
A 50‐year‐old female patient was readmitted with refractory systemic right ventricular failure. The patient underwent a Mustard procedure during childhood for transposition of the great arteries.

Successful use of a right ventricular assist device. [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 1987
Right ventricular failure caused by myocardial infarction may be refractory to treatment designed to support the systemic ventricle. A new type of right ventricular assist device driven by an impeller pump was successfully used for 79 hours after emergency revascularisation after right coronary occlusion. Despite renal failure requiring haemofiltration

Supporting the right ventricle in postcardiotomy renal dysfunction: A case series

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical Message Postcardiotomy RV dysfunction is an under‐recognized cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). Insertion of a percutaneous right ventricular assist device (RVAD) reduces central venous hypertension and congestive nephropathy by augmenting ...

Correlation of aortic valve annular plane assessment by on‐table three‐dimensional rotational angiography and preprocedural computed tomography

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1316-1322, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives To assess the correlation between the aortic valve annular plane (AVAP) obtained by preprocedural computed tomography (CT) with on‐table three‐dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA), in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).

The effect of transfusion of blood products on ventricular assist device support outcomes

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims Perioperative blood transfusions are common among patients undergoing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. The association between blood product transfusion at the time of LVAD implantation and mortality has not been described ...

Ventricular and Atrial Pressure—Volume Loops: Analysis of the Effects Induced by Right Centrifugal Pump Assistance

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
The main indications for right ventricular assist device (RVAD) support are right heart failure after implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) or early graft failure following heart transplantation.

Straining With the Ventricular Assist Device and Right Ventricular Function

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
We read with great interest the paper by Grant et al. ([1][1]) in which they provide an analysis to support the use of strain imaging as a unique echocardiographic measure to predict right ventricular (RV) failure in patients undergoing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement.
