A Scalable Approach to Determine Intracardiac Pressure From Mechanical Circulatory Support Device Signals

Conclusion: LVEDP can be continuously calculated using device signals without specialized characterization. Calculated LVEDP values improved upon PAC estimations and were found using a scalable and manufacturer-accessible method. Significance: This method improves upon existing LVEDP measures without the need for rigorous characterization, external calibration, or additional intervention; this allows widescale deployment of continuous LVEDP measurement f- r patients on MCS and demonstrates key considerations necessary to translate research-grade technologies.
