Summary

This single-center, observational study evaluated the LVAD index, defined as device-estimated pump flow divided by body surface area, in adult patients supported with continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices. The study included 34 patients with end-stage heart failure who had either an HVAD or HeartMate 3 device and were followed for six months. The study assessed the relationship between LVAD index and selected routine biochemical markers related to hepatic and renal status, including ALT, AST, LDH, BUN, and creatinine. The study also evaluated whether LVAD index was associated with rehospitalization during follow-up.

Conditions
