Abstract:
Re-transplantation is the preferred treatment for patients with chronic heart transplant failure. If re-transplantation is not a viable option due to the patient's comorbidities, left ventricle assist device can be used as the destination treatment. An interdisciplinary approach with thorough follow-up can help in the early detection and treatment of complications associated with LVAD.
