Pimobendan in Chronic Right Heart Failure in a Left Ventricular Assist Device Patient

Abstract We report the case of a 76-year-old patient who developed chronic right heart failure 1 year after left ventricular assist device implantation due to ischemic cardiomyopathy. Initial recompensation was achieved through dobutamin, sildenafil, and levosimendan treatment. Yet, discharge was su...
