概括
现在对隔离右心室辅助器件 (iRVAD) 的结果有了更好的理解. 虽然iRVAD的存活率低于左心室辅助装置 (LVAD),但对于孤立的右侧心力衰竭患者来说是可行的.
科学领域:
- 心脏病学 心脏病学
- 机械循环支持 机械循环支持
- 心脏外科手术 心脏外科手术
背景情况:
- 使用用于左心室辅助器件 (LVAD) 设计的与隔离右心室辅助器件 (iRVAD) 的结果没有得到充分记录.
- 右心室衰竭通常需要机械循环支持.
研究的目的:
- 将接受iRVAD的患者的临床特征和结果与接受LVAD和双心室辅助器件 (BiVAD) 的患者进行比较.
- 评估iRVAD在孤立右侧心力衰竭患者的可行性和生存率.
主要方法:
- 来自机械辅助循环支持 (INTERMACS) 机构间注册表 (2006-2017) 的患者的回顾性分析.
- 将iRVAD结果与LVAD和BiVAD患者队列进行比较.
- 评估的主要结局是2年生存率.
主要成果:
- 共有26名患者接受了iRVAD (20,789名患者中的0.13%),其中有17名脉动流和9名连续流器.
- 大多数iRVAD患者是INTERMACS型号1 (46%) 患者,需要大量支持,包括体外膜氧化 (19%) 和机械通风 (50%).
- iRVAD (41.3%) 的两年生存率与BiVAD (45.2%) 类似,但明显低于LVAD (69.0%).
结论:
- 对于患有孤立右侧心力衰竭的患者,长期支持iRVAD是可行的.
- 对于特定的患者群体来说,iRVAD提供了一个潜在的机械循环支持选择.
- 进一步的研究可能会优化iRVAD的使用并改善右心室衰竭的结果.

Mitral Regurgitation I: Introduction
Mitral regurgitation is characterized by the backward circulation of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium during systole, a phase of the cardiac cycle when the heart contracts and pumps blood out of the chambers. This abnormal flow occurs primarily due to the dysfunction of the mitral valve or its supporting structures, which include the mitral leaflets, chordae tendineae, annulus, and papillary muscles.Etiology and Mechanisms:Primary Mitral Regurgitation: This type arises from...
Heart Failure VI: Adjunct Therapies
Additional therapies for treating patients with heart failure (HF) may include procedural interventions, supplemental oxygen, the management of sleep disorders, and nutritional therapy.Procedural InterventionsImplantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator: For patients at risk of life-threatening arrhythmias due to severe left ventricular dysfunction, an Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) can detect and terminate these arrhythmias, preventing sudden cardiac death and improving survival rates.
Cardiomyopathy II: Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Dilated cardiomyopathy, or DCM, is a progressive myocardial disorder characterized by ventricular chamber dilation and contractile dysfunction.EtiologyVarious factors can cause DCM, including hypertension and heavy alcohol intake, which contribute to the weakening and enlargement of the heart muscle. Viral infections, such as Coxsackievirus B, adenoviruses, and influenza, can lead to DCM by causing inflammation and damage to heart tissue. Certain chemotherapeutic agents, including daunorubicin,...
Cardiomyopathy III: Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or HCM, is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by asymmetric left ventricular hypertrophy without ventricular dilation. It is more common in men and is typically diagnosed in young, athletic adults.EtiologyHCM is primarily genetic and is caused by mutations in genes encoding sarcomeric proteins. Researchers have identified over 1400 mutations across at least 11 different genes. Among these, the most frequently occurring mutations are found in the...
Cardiomyopathy V: Interprofessional Care
Managing cardiomyopathy involves addressing underlying or precipitating causes, treating heart failure with medications, and implementing dietary changes and a balanced exercise and rest regimen.Lifestyle ModificationsCardiomyopathy patients should adopt a low-sodium diet to reduce fluid retention and manage heart failure. A personalized exercise and rest plan helps maintain physical fitness without overstraining the heart. Avoiding alcohol and tobacco is essential to prevent further damage to...
