Bridge to Transplantation with a Left Ventricular Assist Device
A 61-year-old female patient was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy with severe left ventricle dysfunction. Two days after admission, continuous renal replacement therapy was performed due to oliguria and lactic acidosis. On the fifth day, an intra-aortic balloon pump was inserted due to low cardiac output syndrome. Beginning 4 days after admission, she was supported for 15 days thereafter w...
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 کاملBridge to transplantation with a Thoratec left ventricular assist device in a 17-kg child.
A Thoratec left ventricular assist device (LVAD) was used to support a 7-year-old 17-kg boy with viral cardiomyopathy for 23 days before heart transplantation. The boy is still living more than 1 year posttransplant, and functional except for some spastic paresis of the left hand, a residual from a stroke during device support. He is the smallest person to be supported with this device. We disc...
