Impact of Tricuspid Valve Repair for Moderate Tricuspid Regurgitation at the Time of Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation on the Occurrence of Right Heart Failure

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: Significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients undergoing durable left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation has been associated with increased incidence of right heart failure (RHF). There is great surgical practice variability rela ... Full text Cite

Pre-Formed Donor-Specific Antibodies Impact Long Term Survival of Heart Transplants

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: We previously reported that heart transplant (HTx) recipients with pre-formed, anti-HLA antibodies at low titer had one-year survival that was comparable to patients without any anti-HLA antibodies. As a result, we defined unacceptable HLA antigen ... Full text Cite

Predictors and Outcomes of Hemodynamic and Functional LVAD Non-Responders: An Analysis of the INTERMACS Registry

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: Despite recent advancements in left ventricular assist device (LVAD) technology, there remains a population of patients who experience ongoing signs and symptoms of heart failure during LVAD support. We sought to describe risk factors and outcomes ... Full text Cite

More Money and More Miles: The Hidden Costs of Donor Procurement with the New Heart Allocation System

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: In October 2018, the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) implemented extensive changes to the adult heart allocation policy. These changes were developed to better stratify medically urgent patients and provide more equitable geographic distri ... Full text Cite

Infection-Related Morbidity with Continuous-Flow Left Ventricular Assist Systems: A Comprehensive Analysis of the Randomized MOMENTUM 3 Trial

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: The MOMENTUM 3 trial established superiority of a fully magnetically-levitated HeartMate 3 (HM3) centrifugal pump over the axial flow HeartMate II (HMII) pump on hemocompatibility-related outcomes. Infection-related outcomes were no different betw ... Full text Cite

Assessment of cardiac allograft systolic function by global longitudinal strain: From donor to recipient.

Conference Clin Transplant · May 2017 BACKGROUND: Cardiac allografts are routinely evaluated by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) before and after transplantation. However, myocardial deformation analyses with LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) are more sensitive for detecting impaire ... Full text Link to item Cite

Efficacy and durability of central oversewing for treatment of aortic insufficiency in patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices.

Conference J Heart Lung Transplant · September 2014 BACKGROUND: Aortic insufficiency (AI) in patients supported with continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices (CF-LVAD) results in regurgitant volume returning from the aorta to the left ventricle, increased LVAD pump volume and reduced systemic cardiac ...
