“…There are significant potential risks with HTx and mechanical circulatory support, as described within the ISHLT and the Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (INTERMACS Registry). 43,48 Perioperative, early postoperative and long-terms risks to transplantation (including risks of antibody and cell-mediated rejection, among others) and risks with VADs (bleeding, the acquisition of von Willebrand syndrome following continuousflow VAD placement, infection (particularly drive-line related), thromboembolic events, VAD thrombosis and the potential for worsening aortic valve insufficiency), must be discussed with patients. It is therefore imperative to seek early involvement from transplantation centres to access advanced HF expertise.…”

The British Society of Heart Failure (BSH) meetings highlight the latest advancements within the field of heart failure (HF) and provide education for training and revalidation for cardiologists and general physicians. This article reviews take-home messages from the 7th BSH HF revalidation and training meeting. It emphasises what every physician needs to know about the latest acute HF guidelines, diagnostics in HF, management strategies (including pharmacotherapeutics and device therapy), and when to consider referring to a transplant centre for mechanical circulatory support or transplantation. It describes the practical challenges faced and provides clinicians with a framework to assist with service development and commissioning of resources to deliver optimal, integrated services that meet the ever-advancing needs of our HF communities.

“…Derzeitige Indikationen umfassen Patienten im Stadium IV nach NYHA oder im Stadium I, II oder III nach der Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (INTERMACS; [10]), die ein hohes Risiko haben, rasch an einem biventrikulären Herzversagen zu versterben. Weiterhin gehören alle Situationen dazu, in denen die Implantation eines univentrikulären -meist linksventrikulären -VAD kontraindiziert ist (.…”

“…The Interagency Registry of Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support has, since its implementation, set a standard for registries in every phase of clinical applicability including patient selection, perioperative management, and clinical follow-up [5]. The registry was created because of the existing limitations and need for improvement of clinical characterization of potential recipients of MCS.…”

With the advances of mechanical circulatory support, the selection of patients has undergone many changes over the last decade. Determining who is suitable for left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is important to understanding the overall risk and outcomes. As devices improve, it is expected that changes will continue in this field. This review describes current state of patient selection, evaluation, and optimization prior to implantation of a long-term circulatory support device.
