This retrospective observational study describes the experience of the binational ANZCORS registry involving 376 pediatric patients who required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) following cardiac surgery.
Single-center retrospective study assessing the utility of omentoplasty in patients with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) infections.
This single-center retrospective observational study presents a case series of pediatric patients with cardiogenic shock managed using the Impella device.
Results from the US heart transplant program between 2016 and 2022, analyzing demographic characteristics, mortality, and 30-day readmissions in heart transplant recipients.
Editorial commentary on novel cannulation strategies in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) recently published in the Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, proposing technical alternatives to standard VA or VV-ECMO support. These alternative approaches may be particularly valuable in cases of complex pathophysiology, high cardiac output, right ventricular failure, or when conventional devices are contraindicated.
Visual and annotated summary of a surgical tutorial video on the explantation of the HeartMate 3 during orthotopic heart transplantation, complemented by recent evidence on surgical approaches, explant techniques, and clinical outcomes.
This substudy of the DanGer Shock trial assessed outcomes associated with the use of Impella CP® for the management of cardiogenic shock (CS) secondary to myocardial infarction (MI) according to patient age.
This state-of-the-art document provides an overview of current donor selection strategies in heart transplantation (HT), highlighting how technical advances have enabled an expansion in the donor pool and increased transplant rates.
4th report of the EUROMACS registry by the EACTS with a focus on standardized outcome ratios
Systematic review of observational studies and case series evaluating the use of the Impella® device as hemodynamic support prior to definitive treatment in patients with post-infarction ventricular septal defect (VSD).
