Partial left ventricular support implanted through minimal access surgery as a bridge to cardiac transplant.
the bilateral axillary arteries had been routinely prepared for selective cerebral perfusion at the Hiroshima University Hospital. The addition of FA-P might be another strategy in other institutions. Because there are unpredictable factors in acute aortic dissection, decisions need to be made stepwise and be based on real-time information at each step. Although our initial assessment was incor...

متن کاملExtracorporeal life support to left ventricular assist device bridge to heart transplant: A strategy to optimize survival and resource utilization.
BACKGROUND The use of extracorporeal life support (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation [ECMO]) as a direct bridge to heart transplant in adult patients is associated with poor survival. Similarly, the use of an implantable left ventricular assist device (LVAD) to salvage patients with cardiac arrest, severe hemodynamic instability, and multiorgan failure results in poor outcome. The use of LVAD...
متن کاملTheoretical Estimation of Cannulation Methods for Left Ventricular Assist Device Support as a Bridge to Recovery
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support under cannulation connected from the left atrium to the aorta (LA-AA) is used as a bridge to recovery in heart failure patients because it is non-invasive to ventricular muscle. However, it has serious problems, such as valve stenosis and blood thrombosis due to the low ejection fraction of the ventricle. We theoretically estimated the effect of the...
متن کاملExtracorporeal life support as a bridge to bridge: a strategy to optimize ventricular assist device results.
OBJECTIVES Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) devices provide temporary mechanical circulatory assistance and are usually implanted under emergency conditions in critical patients. If weaning off ECLS is not possible, heart transplantation or implantation of long-term mechanical circulatory support (LTMCS) is required. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the bridge-to-bridge (BTB) concept....
