Pediatric Ventricular Assist Device [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2019
There have been great advances in ventricular assist device (VAD) treatment for pediatric patients with advanced heart failure. VAD support provides more time for the patient in the heart transplant waiting list. Augmented cardiac output improves heart failure symptoms, end-organ function, and general condition, and consequently provides beneficial ...

Ventricular Assist Device Therapy [PDF]

Cardiovascular Therapeutics, 2009
Ventricular assist devices are an important therapeutic option for advanced congestive heart failure. A left ventricular assist device (LVAD) can be implanted as a bridge to transplantation or for the purpose of destination therapy. LVADs improve end‐organ function and reduce morbidity and mortality in appropriately selected patients.
