Infection-Related Morbidity with Continuous-Flow Left Ventricular Assist Systems: A Comprehensive Analysis of the Randomized MOMENTUM 3 Trial
The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation(2020)
Abstract
Infection is the commonest adverse effect in patients implanted with contemporary continuous-flow pumps with most such events presenting as events unrelated to the pump components. Whether mechanical circulatory devices confer an immunosuppressive effect leading to propensity for infection warrants closer scrutiny to understand and ameliorate this morbidity. (Funded by Abbott; MOMENTUM 3 NCT02224755).
