The value of Stanford integrated psychosocial assessment for transplantation (SIPAT) in prediction of clinical outcomes following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation
ConclusionIn this single-center retrospective study, SIPAT did not predict cumulative re-admissions. Further study is required to validate SIPAT before clinical implementation.

Blood Pressure Control as a Risk Factor for Stroke in LVAD Patients- Single Center Experience
The ENDURANCE trial suggested an increased stroke (CVA) risk in Heartware HVAD compared to Heartmate 2 (HM2); a risk that could be mitigated with improved blood pressure control as demonstrated in the ENDURANCE 2 supplemental study. We hypothesized that better blood pressure control reduced the stroke risk in all LVAD supported patients.

Clinical Profile of Patients with Late Stroke after Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
Despite advances in left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy, stroke remains a relatively frequent complication and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In the early postoperative period, stroke may be related to patient demographics, operative factors and comorbid conditions. Less is known about strokes that occur greater than six months after LVAD implantation. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical profile of patients with late strokes.

4D Flow MRI in 3D Printed Models of Aorta Grafted With a Ventricular Assist Device Allows Detailed Embolic Trajectory Analysis
Embolic stroke remains an important source of morbidity and mortality in heart failure patients treated with Ventricular Assist Devices (VADs). Decreasing the probability of cranial versus descending aortic embolic trajectory by optimizing the VAD outflow graft position and terminal curvature angle could reduce embolic stroke risk. The goal of this study is to investigate particle trajectories released by a VAD into the aorta, and the effect changes in outflow graft insertion site and terminal curve have on those trajectories.

Stroke Volume Response to Exercise is Dependent on Disease Severity in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
This study aimed to describe changes in stroke volume (SV) during exercise in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) to allow for exercise-based risk stratification.

Laterality of Cerebral Artery Hemodynamics in Continuous-Flow LVAD Patients: A Pilot Study in Relation to Stroke
A predominance of ischemic stroke in the right hemisphere among patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support has been noted. The reasons for this clinical presentation are unknown, though others have hypothesized greater blood flow to the right common carotid artery. Since arterial pulsatility and blood velocity (as a surrogate for flow) have been associated with cerebrovascular complications, we hypothesized that significant differences in the pulsatility and/or Vmax of the left and right middle cerebral artery may be present in LVAD patients.

Utility of Hypercoagulable Work-Up in Predicting Post-Operative Complications in Total Artificial Heart (TAH) Implant Patients
Since 2012, our center has used TAH as bridge to transplant or as destination therapy. Despite antithrombotic prophylactic therapy for the prevention of post implant thromboembolic stroke, the thrombotic causes of adverse events and death remain virtually unknown. In efforts to objectively assess hemostasis, our center uses thromboelastograph platelet mapping (TEG-PM) pre-post implant to guide therapy. The purpose of this study was to assess the predictability of the baseline thrombophilia and TEG-PM work-up parameters with development hematological adverse events after TAH implantation.

Donor Right Ventricular Stroke Work Index (RVSWI) is a Poor Predictor of Primary Graft Dysfunction (PGD) After Heart Transplantation
PGD manifests as ventricular dysfunction of the implanted heart within 24 hours of transplantation. It is the leading cause of 30-day mortality after heart transplantation. Donor risk factors have been identified from several studies. Our aim was to study the association between donor RVSWI and recipient PGD.

Effects of Hollow Fiber Membrane Oscillation on an Artificial Lung.
In conclusion, HFM oscillation is a feasible approach to increasing artificial lung gas transfer efficiency. The optimal design for maximizing efficiency at small fiber displacements should minimize bundle resistance and housing compliance.
