Paracorporeal right ventricular assist device for acute and chronic right heart failure in carriers of durable left ventricular assist devices [PDF]
Background: Right ventricular (RV) failure is a common complication of left ventricular assist devic- es (LVAD).1, 2 We describe two cases of durable LVAD carriers requiring acute RV mechanical support provided using the ProtekDuo (LivaNova, IT) cannula, implanted via the right jugular internal vein, bypassing the RV by draining blood from the right ...

Development of a Small Implantable Right Ventricular Assist Device [PDF]
The purpose of this program is to design, develop, and clinically evaluate a new, implantable right ventricular assist device (RVAD) that can be used as a component of an implantable biventricular assist device for patients with severe biventricular heart failure. The initial phase of this program resulted in a prototype RVAD, named DexAide, a modified

Temporary Right-Ventricular Assist Devices: A Systematic Review [PDF]
Acute right-sided heart failure (RHF) is a complex clinical syndrome, with a wide range of clinical presentations, associated with increased mortality and morbidity, but about which there is a scarcity of evidence-based literature. A temporary right-ventricular assist device (t-RVAD) is a potential treatment option for selected patients with severe ...
