A Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) is a mechanical pump implanted inside a person's body to help his/her weakened heart pump blood.
Unlike an artificial heart, the LVAD doesn't replace the heart, but it just helps it do its job. LVADs are used for terminally ill people whose conditions make it impossible for them to get a heart transplant. With this innovative technology and experienced doctors, LVAD has become a trendy choice amongst heart failure patients. It will help you to lead a better quality of life as you experience it.
There are risks involved, as with any surgery. Talk to your surgeon regarding the risks of this procedure.
