- Abstract
Mechanical circulatory support, with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is used in an increasing number of children for treatment of advanced heart failure as bridge-to-transplant. To date no data are available and no studies have defined the role of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for hemodynamic stabilization during Centrimag Levitronix centrifugal pump implantation in children.
