Minimally invasive implantation of left ventricular assist device HeartWare HVAD

Original language description

Introduction: Long-term left ventricular assist devices are nowadays part of standard therapy for patients in terminal phase of heart failure. Lower invasiveness of implantation might have the potential to enhance results of these high risk patients. Theaim of this study is to introduce our minimally invasive approach to the implantation of left ventricular assist device of the latest generation HeartWare ventricle assist device (HVAD) and our initial experience with this method. Methods: In our department we implanted HVAD between November 2013 and November 2014 in 8 patients as a bridge to heart transplantation. All patients were male with average age 59.5 6.4 years. Basic diseases were dilated cardiomyopathy in 6 patients (75%), ischemic cardiomyopathy in 2 patients (25%). The mean value of left ventricular ejection fraction was 10 3.6%, right ventricular ejection fraction was 35 5.6%. Access to the left ventricular apex was reached by left-sided thoracotomy of approximately 8 cm.
