Open Surgical Insertion of TandemHeart Device for Left Ventricular Unloading
ASAIO journal (American Society for Artificial Internal Organs : 1992)(2023)
摘要
TandemHeart (Cardiac Assist Inc., Pittsburgh, PA) is a valuable mechanical circulatory support (MCS) device that provides left atrial to femoral artery bypass and directly unloads the left ventricle. The device is inserted under fluoroscopic guidance in the cardiac catheterization laboratory without requiring invasive surgical exposure. However, this device is unique because it directly unloads the oxygenated blood from the left atrium and may be needed for postoperative support in patients undergoing various open cardiac surgeries. In this article, we provide a detailed description of the open surgical insertion of a TandemHeart device.
