End-stage heart failure represents a substantial worldwide problem for the healthcare system. Despite significant improvements (medical heart failure treatment, implantable cardioverters, cardiac resyschronisation devices), long-term survival and quality of life of t ese patients remains poor. Heart transplantation has been an effective therapy for terminal heart failure, but it remains limited by an increasing shortage of available donor organs along with strict criteria defining acceptable recipients. For the last 50 years, mechanical alternatives to support the circulation have been investigated; however, during the early years device development has been marked in general by slow progress. However, in the past two decades, the technology has evolved dramatically. The purpose of this review is to give a short summary on the evolution of ventricular assist device (VAD) therapy and to give perspectives for future treatment of heart failure.

“…35 VAD therapy improves the quality of life of patients with chronic heart failure, which is assessed by different aspects such as physical, psychological, social and general well-being. [7][8]27 A recent casecontrol study analyzed the benefits achieved by VAD in 61 patients with heart failure compared with nine patients without VAD. The results showed that the device promoted improved insulin resistance throughout the body and decreased levels of diacylglycerol and ceramide in the heart muscle.…”

Objective: describing the functioning, benefits and complications associated with the use of ventricular assist devices and identifying the interventions performed by nurses in the care of patients using this device, according to presented evidence.Method: an integrative review of articles collected in health databases conducted in February 2015. The descriptors used were heart diseases, heart-assist devices and nursing. We identified 34 articles, which were then submitted to thematic analysis.Results: ventricular assist devices function as mechanical pumps promoting adequate cardiac output. Their main benefit is hemodynamic stabilization. The most common complication is infection. Health education, emotional support, outpatient care and curative care are the main care actions performed by nurses.Conclusion: evidence confirms improvement in survival rates of patients with severe heart failure with the use of ventricular assist devices, reiterating the importance of expanding this technology in Brazil as a possibility for treatment.DESCRIPTORS: Cardiac disorders. Cardiac insufficiency. Artificial heart. Nursing. Cardiovascular nursing. Nursing care. DISPOSITIVOS DE ASSISTÊNCIA VENTRICULAR E CUIDADOS DE ENFERMAGEM RESUMOObjetivo: descrever o funcionamento, os benefícios e as complicações associadas ao uso de dispositivos de assistência ventricular e identificar as intervenções realizadas por enfermeiros no cuidado ao paciente com este dispositivo, de acordo com as evidências.Método: revisão integrativa, com artigos coletados em bases de dados da saúde, em fevereiro de 2015. Os descritores utilizados foram heart diseases, heart-assist devices e nursing. Identificaram-se 34 artigos, os quais foram submetidos à análise temática.Resultados: os dispositivos de assistência ventricular funcionam como bombas mecânicas promotoras de débito cardíaco adequado. Seu principal benefício é a estabilização hemodinâmica. A complicação mais comum é a infecção. Educação em saúde, suporte emocional, cuidados com sítio de saída e realização de curativo são os principais cuidados realizados por enfermeiros.Conclusão: as evidências comprovam a melhoria da sobrevida de pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca grave com o uso dos dispositivos de assistência ventricular, reiterando a importância da ampliação dessa tecnologia no Brasil como possibilidade de tratamento.
