LEFT VENTRICLE UNLOADING BY PERCUTANEOUS TRANSFEMORAL TRANSSEPTAL CANNULATION OF LEFT ATRIUM IN PATIENTS BRIDGED TO HEART TRANSPLANTATION WITH PERIPHERAL VENO-ARTERIAL EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION

LEFT VENTRICLE UNLOADING BY PERCUTANEOUS TRANSFEMORAL TRANSSEPTAL CANNULATION OF LEFT ATRIUM IN PATIENTS BRIDGED TO HEART TRANSPLANTATION WITH PERIPHERAL VENO-ARTERIAL EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION

Aim. Peripheral VA ECMO is effective method of circulatory support in heart transplant candidates with life th- reatening CHF.
