Advanced Heart Failure Left Ventricular Assist Device Driveline Infection

ClinConnect Summary

1. Background: Driveline infection (DLI) is a major complication of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The CH-VAD is a novel, fully magnetically levitated LVAD designed with an ultra-thin and highly flexible driveline, which may reduce the risk of DLI compared to traditional LVADs. Previous research has indicated that driveline design features, such as diameter and flexibility, are key risk factors for DLI. This study aims to assess the incidence, management, outcomes and risk factors of DLI in CH-VAD patients.Rationale: Under...
