Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)
A left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is a battery-operated, mechanical pump used for patients with end-stage heart failure. It helps the left ventricle (main pumping chamber of the heart) pump blood to the rest of the body.
Signs & Symptoms of Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Kidney injury
- Fever
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain
Treatment of Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)
Bridge-to-transplant Therapy
This is a life-saving therapy for patients awaiting a heart transplant. It helps the patient survive until they receive a donor’s heart. In some cases, LVAD is able to restore the failing heart, eliminating the need for a transplant.
Destination Therapy
This therapy is used for patients with heart failure who are not candidates for heart transplant surgery. These patients can receive long-term treatment using an LVAD, which can prolong and improve their life quality.
