Novel Left Ventricular Assist System®: An Electrocardiogram-Synchronized LVAS That Avoids Cardiac Cannulation
AUTOR(ES)
Liotta, Domingo
RESUMO
We propose a Novel Left Ventricular Assist System® (Novel LVAS®) as a bridge to cardiac transplantation and to functional heart recovery in advanced heart failure. This report regards the principles that led to its development. It is our hope that the design of a high-peak-output pump of smaller size will lead to improved functional capacity, when compared with currently available left ventricular assist bridges to heart recovery.
