Patients With Heart Failure

The diagnosis and management of chronic heart failure are discussed. Medical therapy and indications for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD), left ventricular assist devices (LVAD), and transplantation are presented. Recommendations by the ACC/AHA and ESC on the management of patients with heart failure have been summarized and tabulated.

The third generation of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) has been shown to improve outcome and quality of life in patients suffering from acute and chronic heart failure. However, VAD-associated complications are still a challenge in the clinical practice. Here we report the resolution of a mobile thrombus formation in the proximity of the inflow cannula of a third generation of LVADs (HVAD Pump, HeartWare, Inc.) in a patient with chronic heart failure 4 months after implantation.
