Haemodynamic Effects of Sildenafil on Subpulmonic Morphological Left Ventricle in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of Arteries After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

Haemodynamic Effects of Sildenafil on Subpulmonic Morphological Left Ventricle in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of Arteries After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

Postoperative right ventricular failure is a major cause of postoperative mortality and morbidity after implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD).1 The morphological right ventricle (RV) is more sensitive to afterload than the morphological left ventricle (LV). In patients with conco...
