The overall survival rate was 79.2% at 12 months following ventricular assist device implant. The comparison of survival rates of the early and later eras shows no significant difference. A focus on specific subgroups showed that survival was less in patients of younger age (<1 year of age; P = 0.01) and lower weight (<20 kg; P = 0.015). Transplant rates at 6 months continue to be low (33.2%).
