HeartMate II left ventricular assist device; early European experience.
OBJECTIVE The novel axial flow left ventricular assist device HeartMate II was introduced into clinical practice in Europe as part of the pilot study and after CE approval in November 2005. In order to get an overview of the use and performance of the device in Europe a group of investigators was founded to compare the initial results. METHODS In a retrospective analysis of the first 101 cons...
متن کاملInfectious complications in patients with ventricular assist device HeartMate II
Results 82 (77.4 %) patients were without infection, 7 (6.7 %) patients developed pump-pocket infection and in 17 (16 %) patients occurred driveline infection. Patients were divided according to driveline technical implantation to three groups: 58 patients with classic/direct technique, 12 patients with „C-shape techniquevelour coated“ and 36 patients with „C-shape technique plastic exit site“....
متن کاملInitial clinical experience with the HeartMate II axial-flow left ventricular assist device.
The redesigned HeartMate II, an axial-flow left ventricular assist device, is simpler, smaller, and easier to operate than are pulsatile pumps. These design characteristics should make the HeartMate II more reliable and durable and broaden the eligible population base. We implanted the HeartMate II in 43 patients (average age, 42 yr). The indication for use was bridge-to-heart transplantation i...
متن کاملAdvanced mechanical circulatory support with the HeartMate left ventricular assist device in the year 2000.
This paper describes the HeartMate left ventricular assist device (ThermoCardiosystems Inc, Woburn, MA) technology, which has been successfully introduced into the clinical arena with more than 2,400 implants as of the year 2000. The review summarizes the clinical experience, and identifies the benefits and limitations of the current state-of-the-art technology of the leading implantable circul...
متن کاملSuccessful catheter ablation of hemodynamically significant ventricular tachycardia in a patient with biventricular assist device support
Introduction Ventricular assist devices (VADs) are playing a large role in the management of end-stage heart failure. Approximately 35% of patients with a VAD have ventricular arrhythmias within the first month of implantation. Electrophysiologic ablations in the setting of a VAD are limited to left VADs (LVADs). To our knowledge, we describe the first report of ablation of a hemodynamically si...
