Abstract:
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has become an important means in the treatment of end-stage heart failure.The incidence of RVF in LVAD recipientsis as high as 10% to 40%, and the mortality rate is as high as 50%.Therefore, it is important to reduce right ventricular dysfunction and improve prognosis if all relevant factors can be monitored and evaluated before operation and timely intervention and perioperative management can be strengthened. This article will review the predictive factors, management strategies and application of devices for RVF after LVAD operation.
