Left ventricular assist device for right side assistance in patients with transposition

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002
Right (systemic) ventricular dysfunction is well described after Senning operations for transposition of the great arteries, and patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries. Transplantation remains the only definitive therapy for refractory heart failure, however patients may deteriorate clinically prior to the availability

Asssessment of Timing Right Ventricular Assist Device Withdrawal Using Left Ventricular Assist Device Filling Characteristics

ASAIO Journal, 1997
Right ventricular assist devices (RVAD) are often needed on a short term basis in patients who develop RV failure after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. The purpose of this study was to use LVAD filling characteristics to help determine the timing for weaning a patient from RVAD support.

Timing of Temporary Right Ventricular Assist Device Insertion for Severe Right Heart Failure After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

ASAIO Journal, 2013
Data on how the timing of a temporary right ventricular assist device (RVAD) insertion affects outcome are limited in patients receiving left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Of the 282 patients who underwent LVAD placement between January 2000 and November 2010, 40 (14%) required concomitant (n = 26) or delayed (n = 14) RVAD insertion as temporary ...

Management of Right Ventricular Failure in the Era of Ventricular Assist Device Therapy

Current Heart Failure Reports, 2011
The increasing incidence of patients with advanced heart failure, limited donor availability, and continued advancements in the field of mechanical circulatory support have made implantation of left ventricular assist device therapy (LVAD) an attractive option for patients with end-stage heart failure.

Right Ventricular Recovery Induced by Temporary Right Ventricular Assist Device Support

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 2015
Background: Right ventricular failure is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. The potential for right ventricular recovery induced by mechanical assistance and exact guidelines for right ventricular assist device (RVAD) weaning still need to be defined.
