The first randomized trial to compare standard percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), also known as coronary angioplasty, with PCI accompanied by the use of a temporary, miniaturized pump to ...
Heart failure can make your heart too weak to pump out enough oxygen-rich blood to meet your body's needs. That will leave you tired and short of breath. It may be hard to climb stairs, go to work, or ...
Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) today shared new clinical findings from a novel U.S. pilot study of its Abiomed unit’s Impella 5 ...
Catheter-based left ventricular microaxial flow pumps are temporary mechanical circulatory support devices. Surgical insertion is usually done under general anaesthetic. The microaxial flow pump ...
Researchers discovered why ventricular assist devices (VADs) used to support the left ventricle of cardiogenic shock patients can induce right ventricle dysfunction. They also developed a test that ...
Postnatally, the immature left ventricle (LV) is subjected to high systemic afterload. Hypothesizing that LV pumping would change during transition–adaptation, we analyzed the LV in preterm infants ...
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted an expanded indication for a line of percutaneous ventricular-assist devices that now allows their use in the treatment of cardiogenic shock ...
Double inlet left ventricle (DILV) is a congenital heart condition in which the heart chambers and valves are defective. As a result, the heart ventricles are replaced by a single pumping chamber.
Left- and right-sided heart failure can both cause different symptoms. For instance, people with left-sided heart failure may experience trouble breathing, while people with right-sided heart failure ...
Catheter-based left ventricular microaxial flow pumps are temporary mechanical circulatory support devices. Percutaneous insertion is typically done through the femoral artery, under general ...
