- Abstract
This article discusses the first-in-human implantation of the CorLog device, a pressure sensor used for postoperative intravascular pressure sensing in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). The CorLog device is implanted through the jugular vein and enables permanent, wireless pressure monitoring of the right atrium or ventricle. The device was successfully implanted in a 61-year-old male patient who underwent LVAD implantation due to terminal heart failure. The device collected a full dataset of right ventricular pressures without any complications, demonstrating its feasibility and safety. The CorLog device offers a viable option for wireless, continuous right heart monitoring in heart failure patients for the first 30 days after LVAD implantation.
