A fully magnetically levitated left ventricular assist device - Final report

TL;DR: Among patients with advanced heart failure, a fully magnetically levitated centrifugal‐flow left ventricular assist device was associated with less frequent need for pump replacement than an axial‐flow device and was superior with respect to survival free of disabling stroke or reoperation to replace or remove a malfunctioning device.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stroke After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation: Outcomes in the Continuous-Flow Era

TL;DR: Stroke while on CF-LVAD support was associated with significant mortality and it is essential to further elucidate risk factors, to optimize anticoagulation, and to further understand the impact of LVAD-related infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preoperative Pectoralis Muscle Quantity and Attenuation by Computed Tomography Are Novel and Powerful Predictors of Mortality After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation.

TL;DR: Pectoralis muscle size and attenuation were powerful predictors of outcomes after LVAD implantation in this data set and outperformed other traditional measures in the data set, including the HeartMate II risk score.
