pubmed:abstractText |
Traditional left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation requires extensive dissection and use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Potential adverse effects of CPB in very ill end-stage heart failure patients include right ventricular dysfunction, end-organ injury, and bleeding. We sought to evaluate the feasibility and outcome of LVAD insertion without CPB.
