Byline: ANI Washington, Aug 18 (ANI): In a revolutionary surgery, cardiac surgeons at Heidelberg University Hospital for the first time implanted the HeartAssist 5 ventricular assist device, the modern version of the DeBakey VAD in July this year. Patients appeared less likely to survive following a combined heart and kidney transplant if, before surgery, they had peripheral vascular disease, were older than 65, had heart failure not caused by blocked or narrowed arteries, were dependent on dialysis or were placed on a ventricular assist device as a bridge to transplantation. |
