Synergistic Model of Cardiac Function with a Heart Assist Device [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The breakdown of cardiac self-organization leads to heart diseases and failure, the number one cause of death worldwide. The left ventricular pressure–volume relation plays a key role in the diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases.

Simulation of dilated heart failure with continuous flow circulatory support [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Lumped parameter models have been employed for decades to simulate important hemodynamic couplings between a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) and the native circulation.

3D printing is a transformative technology in congenital heart disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Survival in congenital heart disease has steadily improved since 1938, when Dr. Robert Gross successfully ligated for the first time a patent ductus arteriosus in a 7-year-old child.

Significance of myocardial tenascin-C expression in left ventricular remodelling and long-term outcome in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aim Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has a variety of causes, and no useful approach to predict left ventricular (LV) remodelling and long-term outcome has yet been established.

Right ventricular failure: Current strategies and future development

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Right heart failure can be defined as a clinical syndrome consisting of signs and symptoms of heart failure resulting from right ventricular dysfunction. Function is normally altered due to three mechanisms: (1) pressure overload (2) volume overload, or (

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Acute Hemodynamic Effects of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Versus Alternative Pacing Strategies in Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Devices

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background The hemodynamic effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are uncharacterized. We aimed to quantify the hemodynamic effects of different ventricular pacing configurations in patients ...

Surgical embolectomy for acute massive pulmonary embolism: state of the art [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) is a severe condition that can potentially lead to death caused by right ventricular (RV) failure and the consequent cardiogenic shock.
