Left Ventricular Assist Device LVAD
A Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) surgery involves the implantation of a mechanical pump to assist the heart in pumping blood to the body in patients with severe heart failure. The LVAD is used either as a Bridge-to-Transplant (BTT) to temporarily support a patient waiting for a heart transplant or as Destination Therapy (DT) for those ineligible for a transplant. The procedure involves placing the LVAD into the left ventricle of the heart to help pump blood to the aorta, improving circulation.
