Diastolic Pulmonary Gradient as a Predictor of Right Ventricular Failure After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Diastolic pulmonary gradient (DPG) was proposed as a better marker of pulmonary vascular remodeling compared with pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and transpulmonary gradient (TPG). The prognostic significance of DPG in patients requiring a

Prophylactic Right Ventricular Assist Device for High-Risk Patients Undergoing Valve Corrective Surgery [PDF]

open access: yesCJC Open, 2019
Background: Right ventricular failure (RVF) after cardiac surgery is associated with poor outcomes. Treatment commonly consists of afterload reduction, contractility optimization, and systemic vasopressors.

Right ventricular failure following left ventricular assist device implantation is associated with a preoperative pro-inflammatory response

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2019
Background Systemic inflammation during implant of a durable left ventricular assist device (LVAD) may contribute to adverse outcomes. We investigated the association of the preoperative inflammatory markers with subsequent right ventricular failure (RVF)

Paracorporeal right ventricular assist device for acute and chronic right heart failure in carriers of durable left ventricular assist devices [PDF]

open access: yesCardiologia Croatica, 2021
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]

open access: bronzeASAIO Journal, 2005
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]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
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 ...
