Bivairudin is associated with lower mortality AND is cost effective when compared to heparin in pediaatric VAD management. Congrats @jen_conway1! @ACTION4HF @phts #LVAD #pedshf https://www.jhltonline.org/article/S1053-2498(22)02172-6/fulltext

Heartmate 3 #LVAD can be used safely in pediatric patients through cannulation of the atrial septum as an alternative method for placing a left ventricular assist device to treat restrictive cardiomyopathy.

Durable #LVAD use ~30%β¬οΈ in new vs old π«allocation era, with similar waitlist results in patients bridged w/HM3. Predictors of post-tx mortality: old age, ischemic HF, β¬οΈfunctional status, β¬οΈcreatinine, pulmonary HTN, obesity @VeliKTopkaraMD @NirUrielMD

@BrettSperryMD Welcome to #MedMastodon! hope you find it as fruitful as I have. It iss very well run by @nick , the admin, who has also made available a bunch of #medicalEmojis. Not sure if he has an #LVAD emoji yet though.
