DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.13234
Abstract: Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) results in substantial improvement of prognosis and functional capacity. Currently, duration of MCS as a bridge to transplantation (BTT) is often prolonged due to shortage of donor hearts. Because long‐term results… read more here.
