Risk Factors Predictive of Right Ventricular Failure After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
Stavros G. Drakos,Stavros G. Drakos,Stavros G. Drakos,Lindsay Janicki,Lindsay Janicki,Benjamin D. Horne,Abdallah G. Kfoury,Abdallah G. Kfoury,Bruce B. Reid,Bruce B. Reid,Stephen E. Clayson,Kenneth Horton,Francois Haddad,Dean Y. Li,Dale G. Renlund,Dale G. Renlund,Patrick W. Fisher +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a risk score for right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, which was defined by the need for inhaled nitric oxide for ≥48 hours or intravenous inotropes for >14 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Mechanical Unloading on Microvasculature and Associated Central Remodeling Features of the Failing Human Heart
Stavros G. Drakos,Abdallah G. Kfoury,Abdallah G. Kfoury,Elizabeth H. Hammond,Bruce B. Reid,Bruce B. Reid,Monica P. Revelo,B.Y. Rasmusson,Kevin J. Whitehead,Mohamed E. Salama,Craig H. Selzman,Josef Stehlik,Stephen E. Clayson,Michael R. Bristow,Dale G. Renlund,Dale G. Renlund,Dean Y. Li +16 more
TL;DR: New insights into the effects of LVAD unloading on microvasculature and associated key remodeling features might guide future studies of unloading-induced reverse remodeling of the failing human heart.
Journal ArticleDOI
End-of-life decision making and implementation in recipients of a destination left ventricular assist device
Sally Brush,Deborah Budge,Rami Alharethi,Ashley J. McCormick,Jane E. MacPherson,Bruce B. Reid,I.D. Ledford,H.K. Smith,S. Stoker,Stephen E. Clayson,John R. Doty,William T. Caine,Stavros G. Drakos,Abdallah G. Kfoury +13 more
TL;DR: A multidisciplinary team approach with protocols involving DT patients and their families in EOL decision making allows for continuity of care and ensures dignity and comfort at EOL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity and left ventricular assist device driveline exit site infection
Ashley L. Raymond,Abdallah G. Kfoury,Corey J. Bishop,Erin Davis,Kimberly M. Goebel,S. Stoker,Craig H. Selzman,Stephen E. Clayson,H.K. Smith,Cris G. Cowley,Rami Alharethi,Deborah Budge,Bruce B. Reid +12 more
TL;DR: Results may warrant increased measures to prevent and treat infection in the preimplant and postimplant periods, and implications for clinical practice may include the provision of nutrition and exercise counseling for patients undergoing LVAD therapy, especially if overweight.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving outcomes with long-term "destination" therapy using left ventricular assist devices.
James W. Long,Aaron H. Healy,B.Y. Rasmusson,Cris G. Cowley,Karl E. Nelson,Abdallah G. Kfoury,Stephen E. Clayson,Bruce B. Reid,Stephanie A. Moore,Douglas U. Blank,Dale G. Renlund +10 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that long-term destination therapy can be improved well beyond the pioneering experience of the Randomized Evaluation of Mechanical Assistance for the Treatment of Congestive Heart Failure trial.
