Association of preoperative duration of inotropy on prevalence of right ventricular failure following LVAD implantation

Association of preoperative duration of inotropy on prevalence of right ventricular failure following LVAD implantation

Abstract Aims 20% to 40% of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) device implantations are complicated by right ventricular (RV) failure that results in significant morbidity and mortality. We hypothesized that the duration on milrinone infusion is an independent risk factor for RV failure following...
