Right Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain as a Predictor of Acute and Early Right Heart Failure Post Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

ASAIO journal (1992), 2021
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Early right heart failure (RHF) occurs in up to 40% of patients following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.

Straining With the Ventricular Assist Device and Right Ventricular Function

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
We read with great interest the paper by Grant et al. ([1][1]) in which they provide an analysis to support the use of strain imaging as a unique echocardiographic measure to predict right ventricular (RV) failure in patients undergoing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement.

Clinical implications of late-onset right ventricular failure after implantation of a continuous-flow left ventricular assist device as bridge to transplantation.

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2021
OBJECTIVES The development of late-onset right ventricular failure (LoRVF) that occurs months after a continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is implanted is a clinical problem that warrants investigation.

Right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist devices [PDF]

The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2015
Most patients with advanced systolic dysfunction who are assessed for a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) also have some degree of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. Hence, RV failure (RVF) remains a common complication of LVAD placement. Severe RVF after LVAD implantation is associated with increased peri-operative mortality and length of stay ...

Successful bridge to recovery in fulminant myocarditis using a biventricular assist device: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background Fulminant myocarditis is a life-threatening disease, and myocardial damage expands the right ventricle as well as the left ventricle in some cases.

First‐in‐man successful use of the SPECTRUM percutaneous dual‐stage right ventricle and right atrium to pulmonary artery ventricular assist device

Journal of cardiac surgery, 2022
Over the past decade, several minimally invasive mechanical support devices have been introduced into clinical practice to support the right ventricle (RV). Percutaneous cannulas are easy to insert, minimally invasive, and treat acute RV failure rapidly.

Right ventricular dysfunction in children supported with pulsatile ventricular assist devices [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2014
To describe the incidence and severity of right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in pediatric ventricular assist device (VAD) recipients and to identify the preoperative characteristics associated with RVD and their effect on outcomes.Children bridged to transplantation from 2004 to 2011 were included.
