Right ventricular assist devices (RVADs) typically require groin cannulation or sternal re-entry which can be avoided by direct pulmonary artery implantation with an Impella. We report the first use of the Impella LD as a directly implanted RVAD.
右心室辅助装置(RVADs)通常需要腹股沟插管或再次开胸,而使用Impella直接植入肺动脉可避免这些操作。我们报告了首次将Impella LD作为直接植入式右心室辅助装置使用的情况。
