Overview

Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are temporary implantable cardiac devices to sustain a patient (i.e. "bridge" the patient) until cardiac transplantation can be performed. The use of LVADs as a "destination" device (the final treatment) rather than as a bridge is investigational at present.

Wearables and Remote Monitoring (Including Telemonitoring and Device Monitoring) 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Class IIb
"1. In selected adult patients with NYHA class III HF and history of a HF hospitalization in the past year or elevated natriuretic peptide levels, on maximally tolerated stable doses of GDMT with optimal device therapy, the usefulness of wireless monitoring of PA pressure by an implanted hemodynamic monitor to reduce the risk of subsequent HF hospitalization is uncertain. [2][3][4][5](Level of Evidence: B-R) "
Value Statement: Uncertain Value
"1. In patients with NYHA class III HF with a HF hospitalization within the previous year, wireless monitoring of the PA pressure by an implanted hemodynamic monitor provides uncertain value. [5][6][7][8](Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
