Left ventricular venting in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: A computer simulation study.

Our data suggest that reduction of left atrial pressure is linearly related to the vent, Impella or atrial septal defect flow rate. The preferred vent location is the left ventricle as it avoids stasis in the pulmonary circulation and cardiac chambers.
