متن کاملDesign of a continuous flow centrifugal pediatric ventricular assist device.
Thousands of pediatric patients suffering from cardiomyopathy or single ventricular physiologies secondary to debilitating heart defects may benefit from long-term mechanical circulatory support due to the limited number of donor hearts available. This article presents the initial design of a fully implantable centrifugal pediatric ventricular assist device (PVAD) for 2 to 12 year olds. Convent...
متن کاملApical pseudoaneurysm following continuous flow left ventricular assist device placement.
The HeartMate II continuous flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD) (Thoratec Inc) provides circulatory support for patients with medically refractory systolic heart failure as both a bridge to transplantation and destination therapy. Although left ventricular apical pseudoaneurysm has rarely been reported with first-generation pulsatile flow LVADs, this has not been previously reported with...
متن کاملLate Complications Following Continuous-Flow Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
Left ventricular assist devices have become standard therapy for patients with end-stage heart failure. They represent potential long-term solutions for a growing public health problem. However, initial enthusiasm for this technology has been tempered by challenges posed by long-term support. This review examines these challenges and out current understanding of their etiologies.
متن کاملHemolysis and Pulmonary Insufficiency following Right Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
We report a case of severe hemolysis and pulmonary valve insufficiency (PI) following right ventricular support using a paracorporeal pneumatic pump (Abiomed, Danvers, MA, USA). We speculate that the high velocity jet of blood emanating from the outflow cannula caused turbulence above the pulmonary valve, leading to PI and hemolysis. Despite the growing number of implanted ventricular assist de...
