PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Mechanical circulatory support has a progressively increasing impact in the treatment of heart failure. The results of mechanical circulatory support are limited not only by the severity of the disease, which necessitated initiation of support, but also by the serious device-related adverse events. Optimized patient selection, improved patient management, and advanced device technology are interdependent key factors that contributed to the recently improved outcomes. The aim of this article is to summarize the current experience in application of mechanical circulatory support, focusing on the ICU management.
RECENT FINDINGS: Management should aim to prevent rather than treat serious complications and adverse events. Timing of intervention, optimization of the preimplantation patient status, patient and device management to ensure optimal hemodynamics, infection prevention, nutritional support, careful anticoagulation, and vigilance for early recognition and prompt treatment of 'minor' events before progression into major complications are essential elements of successful treatment.
SUMMARY: Critical patient care is a valuable adjunct to successful application of mechanical circulatory support, but it cannot counterbalance a late intervention, neither can it be fruitful in treating irreversible organ damage. Current management includes careful application of treatment protocols adjusted to recent experience, and also individualized care by a specialized team.
