2022年6月6日 · Prevalence of post-left ventricular assist device (LVAD) right heart failure (RHF) is 24% at 1-month postimplantation but declines and ranges between 8% and 10% up to 36 months thereafter. The later RHF presents, the higher the chance it represents a persistent, rather than a transient, abnormality.

Late right heart failure (RHF) is increasingly recognized in patients with long-term left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support and is associated with decreased survival and increased incidence of adverse events such as gastrointestinal bleeding and stroke.

We sought to assess how the incidence of RHF changes over time after LVAD implantation and to determine the impact of late RHF on survival, subsequent hospitalization, and clinically important adverse events.

Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy is a lifesaving option for patients with medical therapy-refractory advanced heart failure. Depending on the definition, 5–44% of people supported with an LVAD develop right heart failure (RHF), …

Among the most common LVAD-related complications, right heart failure (RHF) after LVAD remains an unresolved challenge that is associated with high morbidity and mortality. This review covers the epidemiology and current definitions of RHF after LVAD implantation.

2024年6月10日 · Right heart failure (RHF) following implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is a common and potentially serious condition with a wide spectrum of clinical presentations with an unfavourable effect on patient outcomes.

2013年10月26日 · Right heart failure (RHF) is a frequent complication following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. The incidence of RHF complicates 20-50% (range, 9-44%) of cases and is a major factor of postoperative morbidity and mortality.

2025年3月7日 · Right heart failure (RHF) is a common manifestation after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement and is associated with a high mortality rate. Historically, RV failure requiring an RVAD at the time of LVAD implantation has been associated with an especially high mortality. However, more recently, some studies have shown reasonable outcomes after LVAD implantation even when an RVAD is ...

Introduction: Right heart failure (RHF) is a well-known complication after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation and portends increased morbidity and mortality. Understanding the mechanisms and predictors of RHF in this clinical setting may offer ideas for early identification and aggressive management to minimize poor outcomes.

2023年8月14日 · 左心室辅助装置 (LVAD)是一种成熟的治疗终末期心力衰竭 (HF)的方法，可提高患者的生存率和生活质量。 然而，尽管技术有所改进，左心室辅助植入后右心室几何形状扭曲和前负荷的增加使得右心衰竭（RHF）的发生率并没有变化。 约三分之一的患者出现RHF，对预后产生重要影响。 事实上，根据机械循环辅助支持机构登记 (INTERMACS)报告显示，需要右心室机械支持的患者1年生存率为58%，而整个队列患者的1年生存率为81%。 在每个候选患者的术前评 …
