Myocardial recovery during mechanical circulatory support: weaning and explantation criteria
For selected patients ventricular assist device explantation is feasible. Freedom from heart transplantation and VAD support for >15 years following VAD removal is possible even if recovery is incomplete and the underlying cause for ventricular assist device implantation was a chronic form of cardiomyopathy. Echocardiography and rightheart catheterization are necessary to assess cardiac recover...
متن کاملMyocardial oxidative metabolism and protein synthesis during mechanical circulatory support by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) provides essential mechanical circulatory support necessary for survival in infants and children with acute cardiac decompensation. However, ECMO also causes metabolic disturbances, which contribute to total body wasting and protein loss. Cardiac stunning can also occur, which prevents ECMO weaning, and contributes to high mortality. The heart may spec...
متن کاملLeft ventricular remodeling and myocardial recovery on mechanical circulatory support.
BACKGROUND Myocardial recovery after ventricular assist devices (VAD) is rare but appears more common in nonischemic cardiomyopathies (NICM). We sought to evaluate left ventricular (LV) end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) for predicting recovery after VAD. METHODS AND RESULTS NICM patients receiving long-term mechanical support between 1996 and 2008 were reviewed. Subjects were divided into 3 grou...
متن کاملMechanical Circulatory Support
The role of mechanical circulatory device therapy has progressed rapidly over the last 2 decades, from supporting the failing heart in hospitalized patients awaiting heart transplantation to permanent or “destination” outpatient therapy in individuals with end-stage systolic heart failure (HF) for whom transplantation is not an option. Over this period, devices themselves have evolved through s...
متن کاملPediatric Mechanical Circulatory Support
Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in the pediatric heart failure population has a limited history especially for infants, and neonates. It has been increasingly recognized that there is a rapidly expanding population of children diagnosed and living with heart failure. This expanding population has resulted in increasing numbers of children with medically resistant end-stage heart failure. T...
