Postauricular percutaneous power delivery for permanent mechanical circulatory support

Abstract: For widespread use, permanent implantable circulatory support requires a reliable, user-friendly device with freedom from powerline infection. Our early experience with the Jarvik 2000 heart suggests that rigid fixation and the vascularity of scalp skin promote healing and reduce the risk of driveline infection.

“…The two case series of the Jarvik 2000 LVAD examined adverse events (Table 21 and Appendix 16). [94][95][96][97][98][99][100] Frazier and colleagues' 94 case series of three patients with a Jarvik 2000 LVAD as a BTT found localised infection of the powercable exit site in one patient. There were no device-related medical problems.…”

“…Two case series of the Jarvik 2000 LVAD reported survival to transplantation (Table 17 and Appendix 16). [94][95][96][97][98][99][100] In a case series 94 of three patients, a successful heart transplant rate of 67% was reported with one patient still awaiting transplant. A multicentre case series study, which also assessed patients supported long term with LVAD (see the section 'LVADs as a long-term chronic support' p. 58), reported survival to heart transplantation for 22 patients with the indication of BTT.…”
