摘要
Objective To review the experience of using left ventricular assist (LVAD) in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods The data of 1 704 CABG cases were analyzed. 25 patients required LVAD after CABG (1. 5% ,25/1704). Results About 78% of 25 patients were weaned off LVAD, and 48% of them were discharged. IABP was used in 88% of patients. The major complications were MOF,lung disease,renal insufficiency/ failure, arrhythmia, coapulopathy, and infection. The causes of death were MOF, pump failure, renal failure, venticular fibrillation, respiratory failure, bleeding. Conclusion LVAD is a very useful tool in salvaging left ventricular failure. LVAD should be used as early as possible. Before weaning, trials should be madeat decreasing flow rates. 11 refs,2 tabs.
