Preoperative and perioperative predictors of right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device implantation

open access: yesInternational Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2022
Background: Right ventricular (RV) failure is a serious adverse event for patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). Here, we seek to identify the risk factors which may predict the development of RV failure (RVF).

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

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 ...

A Geometrically Transient Platform for Bioelectronic Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive bioelectronic implants often compromise performance for smaller sizes. To resolve this optimization dilemma, a wireless bioelectronic implant with a transient geometry is introduced (MiFi). The origami‐inspired device miniaturizes up to sixfold for syringe insertion and autonomously unfolds post‐implantation.

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.

From Fiber Bundles to Architected Membranes: Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Architectures for Biohybrid Artificial Lungs

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Additively manufactured triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) membranes offer an architecture‐driven alternative to hollow fiber bundles in artificial lungs. Multiphysics simulations and endothelialized prototypes show that the 3D‐printable membrane architecture improves gas exchange, blood flow distribution, and hemocompatibility, enabling ...

Right ventricular functional assessment by three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography is useful for withdrawal from a right ventricular assist device: a case report

open access: yesJA Clinical Reports, 2017
Right ventricular assist device (RVAD) implantation is one type of surgical treatment used for right heart failure. It is important to assess right ventricular (RV) function precisely when RVAD withdrawal is considered. Although assessment of RV function
