Mechanical circulatory support in heart failure
The increasing number of end-stage heart failure patients eligible for heart transplant and the disproportionately low number of donor hearts have led to increased interest in ventricular assist devices (VAD). These devices can be used as a bridge to decision, bridge to recovery, or bridge to candidacy. The main advantage of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) is the improvement of organ perfu...
متن کاملMechanical circulatory support for advanced heart failure.
OPINION STATEMENT Both acute and chronic systolic heart failure can progress to an advanced phase, resulting in stage D heart failure and even cardiogenic shock. Despite significant progress in the treatment of systolic heart failure using medical and device therapies, this terminal phase continues to be prevalent and associated with unacceptably high morbidity and mortality. Given the inabilit...
متن کاملAdvances in Mechanical Circulatory Support Mechanical Circulatory Support for Advanced Heart Failure Patients and Technology in Evolution
After nearly 50 years of clinical development, durable mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices are widely available for patients with advanced heart failure. The field of circulatory support has matured dramatically in recent years, thanks to the advent of smaller, rotary pumps. The resulting transition away from older pulsatile devices has been swift. Accelerated use of continuous-flow le...
متن کاملDuration of Heart Failure Is an Important Predictor of Outcomes After Mechanical Circulatory Support.
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) progression results in worsening functional capacity and end-organ compromise. HF may occur acutely or be associated with a chronic presentation. We hypothesized that the duration of HF affects outcomes after mechanical circulatory support. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 10 730 patients registered in Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Supp...
متن کاملMyocardial recovery during mechanical circulatory support: weaning and explantation criteria
For selected patients ventricular assist device explantation is feasible. Freedom from heart transplantation and VAD support for >15 years following VAD removal is possible even if recovery is incomplete and the underlying cause for ventricular assist device implantation was a chronic form of cardiomyopathy. Echocardiography and rightheart catheterization are necessary to assess cardiac recover...
