A day to remember : 25th of June 2014 The first implantation in man of a HeartMate 3 device ! It was 6 years ago in #Hannover Jan D. Schmitto #EUMS_2020 #LVAD #HeartFailure

Low and high doses of aspirin have similar safety and efficacy during Heartmate 3 support Next step : May aspirin be completely avoided in patients treated by Heartmate 3 ? jhltonline.org/article/S1053-… JHLT #EUMS_2020 #LVAD #Heartfailure

Statin therapy after #LVAD implantation --> Lower rate of and less severe ischemic strokes ! jhltonline.org/article/S1053-… #EUMS_2020 #HeartFailure

Use of PDE-5 is associated with fewer thrombotic events and improved survival in LVAD patients ! ahajournals.org/doi/epub/10.11… Andreas Xanthopoulos Kiyotaka Fukamachi, MD, PhD American Heart Association #EUMS_2020 #LVAD #MCS #Heartfailure

Interesting study by Claudius Mahr et al. on the less invasive "Hannover-VAD-technique": Cost-Effectiveness of Thoracotomy approach: The approach which was established and developed at Hannover Medical School many years ago!

Neurocognitive function, quality of life, and functional capacity improve for patients after LVAD support even among those who suffered from neurologic events ! jhltonline.org/article/S1053-… JHLT Randall Starling #EUMS_2020 #LVAD #HeartFailure

Do Women Have Inferior Outcomes to Men after LVAD Implantation ? According to that study, women seem at least to have increased rates of severe right ventricular failures ! jhltonline.org/article/S1053-… @HKLamba JHLT #EUMS_2020 #LVAD #RVAD #HeartFailure
