Feasibility of Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Nephroureterectomy in Left Ventricular Assist Device Patient
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have revolutionized management options for patients with advanced heart failure. It is not uncommon for patients treated with these devices to present with noncardiac surgical conditions including urologic problems. Maintaining perioperative hemodynamic and hematologic stability is a special challenge. The minimally invasive surgery provides well-document...
متن کاملRegaining Candidacy for Heart Transplantation after Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy in Left Ventricular Assist Device Patient
Several factors may highlight the relevance of prostate cancer to the pre-heart-transplant population. First, the expansion in candidate selection criteria led to increased number of men over the age of fifty to be considered for heart transplantation. With the introduction of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy, waiting-list mortality has dramatically declined over the past decade. A...
متن کاملImprovement of Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) in Artificial Heart Using Particle Swarm Optimization
In this approach, the Left ventricular assist pump for patients with left ventricular failure isused. The failure of the left ventricle is the most common heart disease during these days. Inthis article, a State feedback controller method is used to optimize the efficiency of a samplingpump current. Particle Swarm Algorithm, which is a set of rules to update the position andvelocity, is applied...
متن کاملLaparoscopic repair of diaphragmatic hernia after left ventricular assist device.
This case report describes a patient with a symptomatic diaphragmatic hernia that developed after orthotopic heart transplantation and explantation of a left ventricular assist device. The hernia was repaired laparoscopically, and at 6-month follow-up, she is without evidence of recurrence.
متن کاملLaparoscopic gastric bypass in a patient with an implanted left ventricular assist device.
CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE (CHF) is a growing health issue, with significant morbidity and mortality. Of the 5.8 million Americans affected by CHF, approximately one third of these suffer from nonischemic cardiomyopathy.1 Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) provide mechanical support to the heart and potentially can reverse the progression of heart failure.2,3 LVAD therapy improves heart fail...
