Eligibility:

Brief Summary

The overall objective of this pilot analysis is to characterize the hemodynamic changes that occur during implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in patients with advanced heart failur...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • individuals ≥ 18 years of age with severe heart failure (HF) and who have been approved by the advanced HF selection committee for LVAD implantation.

Exclusion

  • Patients with pre-existing right ventricular (RV) dysfunction/failure, defined as:
  • Imaging evidence of moderate-severe RV dysfunction on echocardiography
  • Hemodynamic evidence of RV dysfunction with:
  • a right-atrial pressure (RAP): pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) ratio of ≥ 0.67 (note: this index compares pressures on the right \[RAP\] and left \[PCWP\] side of the heart;
  • an RAP/PCWP ratio ≥ 0.67 provides hemodynamic evidence of RV dysfunction.
  • Clinical evidence of preexisting RV dysfunction, as indicated by significant (3-4+ peripheral edema) and/or elevated jugular venous pressures on clinical examination.
  • Patients with end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis
  • Patients requiring temporary hemodynamic support prior to LVAD implantation with temporary LVADs, and/or veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenators ("ECMO").
  • Planned concurrent implantation of right ventricular assist device
