Mechanical circulatory support for advanced heart failure.
OPINION STATEMENT Both acute and chronic systolic heart failure can progress to an advanced phase, resulting in stage D heart failure and even cardiogenic shock. Despite significant progress in the treatment of systolic heart failure using medical and device therapies, this terminal phase continues to be prevalent and associated with unacceptably high morbidity and mortality. Given the inabilit...
متن کاملAdvances in Mechanical Circulatory Support Mechanical Circulatory Support for Advanced Heart Failure Patients and Technology in Evolution
After nearly 50 years of clinical development, durable mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices are widely available for patients with advanced heart failure. The field of circulatory support has matured dramatically in recent years, thanks to the advent of smaller, rotary pumps. The resulting transition away from older pulsatile devices has been swift. Accelerated use of continuous-flow le...
متن کاملMechanical circulatory support in heart failure
The increasing number of end-stage heart failure patients eligible for heart transplant and the disproportionately low number of donor hearts have led to increased interest in ventricular assist devices (VAD). These devices can be used as a bridge to decision, bridge to recovery, or bridge to candidacy. The main advantage of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) is the improvement of organ perfu...
متن کاملMechanical circulatory support for end-stage heart failure.
Mechanical circulatory assistance has become a frequent therapeutic option for patients with advanced heart failure. For patients with acute cardiogenic shock and impaired organ function, short-term assistance with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is the leading therapeutic option. It enables a "bridge to decision-making" i.e. withdrawal of the device after myocardial recovery o...
متن کاملCurrent Mechanical Circulatory Support Devices for End Stage Heart Failure
Mechanical circulatory support is necessary when heart failure becomes refractory to medical support. It is typically instituted when organ dysfunction occurs as a result of hypoperfusion. Enthusiasm has recently developed for the role of mechanical circulatory support in the ever-growing population of heart failure patients. Indeed, efforts in developing this technology have allowed for the re...
