Abstract
Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a complex pathology and a significant independent factor in the morbidity and mortality of heart failure.1 For patients on mechanical circulatory support (MCS), RV dysfunction can be an isolated complication of cardiotomy or an additional pathology.2 3 A range of strategies exist to manage RV dysfunction. This project reviews outcomes and therapies for patients in our centre who had RV dysfunction on MCS, including veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and ventricular assist devices (VAD).
