Right ventricular assist device with membrane oxygenator support for right ventricular failure following implantable left ventricular assist device placement [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2015
Cardiogenic shock from refractory right ventricular (RV) failure during left ventricular assist device placement is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The addition of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to RV mechanical assistance may help RV recovery and lead to improved outcomes.We retrospectively reviewed all implanted continuous-flow ...

Left Ventricular Assist Device Support Complicates the Exercise Physiology of Oxygen Transport and Uptake in Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Low-output forward flow and impaired maximal exercise oxygen uptake (VO2 max) are hallmarks of patients in advanced heart failure. The continuous-flow left ventricular assist device is a cutting-edge therapy proven to increase forward flow, yet this ...

Effects of the left ventricular assist device on right ventricular function

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1990
Right ventricular failure is a leading cause of death in patients who require the left ventricular assist device. Previous reports suggested right ventricular functional deterioration during left ventricular assist but lacked a method by which right ventricular function could be quantified adequately. This study examined the effects of left ventricular

Development of a Small Implantable Right Ventricular Assist Device [PDF]

open access: yesASAIO 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

Right Ventricular Temporal Assist Device for Cardiac Recompensation

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2017
Abstract In this case report, we discuss treatment of a 66-year-old patient with right heart failure due to chronic left heart failure caused by ischemic cardiomyopathy. We decided to manage this patient by implanting a temporary right ventricular assist device (Impella RP®) as a novel therapeutic option for acute on chronic right ...

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 (
