Episode Description

This episode is an encore presentation of "Living Well with Heart Failure: All About LVAD," which originally premiered in February 2025.

A left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is a mechanical pump that is placed at the bottom of your heart and helps a weak left ventricle pump blood to your aorta and throughout your body. Pavan Bhat, MD, and Michael Tong, MD, discuss its use as a bridge between treatment and a heart transplant, or as a destination therapy that continues to provide improved outcomes.
