Ventricular assist devices

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2013
Despite major advances in the treatment of heart failure over the past two decades, improving the natural history of this condition, heart failure continues to be a major source of morbidity and mortality. Although availability of heart donor for transplantation has declined over the past several years, innovations in ventricular assist device (VAD ...

The prognostic value of clinical frailty scale and outcomes in older patients undergoing left ventricular assist device implantation

AGING MEDICINE, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 257-263, December 2022., 2022
The main finding in our study is that Clinical Frailty Scale‐defined frailty status was predictive of 1‐year post‐interventional mortality after left ventricular assist device implantation. Abstract Objectives Heart failure impacts patients’ functional capabilities, ultimately leading to frailty.

A Sensorless Control System for an Implantable Heart Pump using a Real-time Deep Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2021, 2021
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are mechanical pumps, which can be used to support heart failure (HF) patients as bridge to transplant and destination therapy. To automatically adjust the LVAD speed, a physiological control system needs to be designed to respond to variations of patient hemodynamics across a variety of clinical scenarios. These
