Mechanical circulatory support for right ventricular failure.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to explore the clinical utility of a commercially available centrifugal flow pump as a centrifugal flow-right ventricular support device (CF-RVSD) in patients with right ventricular failure (RVF). BACKGROUND RVF is associated with high in-hospital mortality. Limited data regarding efficacy of the CF-RVSD for RVF exist. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed...
متن کاملMechanical Circulatory Support Devices for Acute Right Ventricular Failure.
Right ventricular (RV) failure remains a major cause of global morbidity and mortality for patients with advanced heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, or acute myocardial infarction and after major cardiac surgery. Over the past 2 decades, percutaneously delivered acute mechanical circulatory support pumps specifically designed to support RV failure have been introduced into clinical practice...
متن کاملClinical experience using the Levitronix CentriMag system for temporary right ventricular mechanical circulatory support.
BACKGROUND Short-term mechanical circulatory support may be lifesaving in patients with right ventricular (RV) failure related to post-cardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCCS), cardiac transplantation (CTx), and long-term therapy with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). This study evaluates our clinical experience using the CentriMag (Levitronix LLC, Waltham, Mass) system for temporary mechanic...
متن کاملuse of right ventricular support with a centrifugal pump in post-valve surgery right ventricular failure: a case series
the optimal treatment method for right ventricular failure after valve surgery complicated by a low cardiac output has not been determined, although several case reports have been published on patients with ventricular failure and arrhythmia who were bridged to cardiac transplantation using biventricular or left ventricular assist devices. this case series illustrates successful circulatory sup...
متن کاملTemporary percutaneous right ventricular support using a centrifugal pump in patients with postoperative acute refractory right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device implantation.
OBJECTIVE Acute right ventricular (RV) failure is a life-threatening condition with a poor prognosis, and sometimes the use of mechanical circulatory support is inevitable. In this article, we describe our experience using a centrifugal pump as a temporary percutaneous right ventricular assist device (RVAD) in patients with postoperative acute refractory RV failure after left ventricular assist...
