Test Bench for Right Ventricular Failure Reversibility: The Hybrid BiVAD Concept.
Vincenzo TarziaMatteo PonzoniDemetrio PittarelloGino GerosaPublished in: Journal of clinical medicine (2023)
The Hybrid BiVAD represents an up-to-date micro-invasive mechanical treatment of acute biventricular failure beyond ECMO. Its rationale relies on more physiological circulation across the lungs, the complete biventricular unloading, and the possibility of including an oxygenator in the circuit. Finally, the independent and differential control of pulmonary and systemic flows allows for more accurate RV function evaluation for isolated durable LVAD eligibility reassessment.
