Abstract:
Pulmonary complications after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation seldom occur; however, if present, they may prove catastrophic. An Oxy-RVAD (oxygenator in right VAD circuit) is a lifesaving technique in such cases and allows freedom of introducing and removing an oxygenator into the RVAD circuit without opening the chest and competing with LVAD flow.
