Abstract
Durable mechanical circulatory support options for patients with biventricular failure are limited. One emerging strategy is the use of 2 fully magnetically levitated durable ventricular assist devices (HeartMate 3s) in a biventricular configuration. The use of a HeartMate 3 as a right ventricular assist device (RVAD) requires several complex technical modifications. Here, we provide step-wise detailed figures and a comprehensive description of bilateral HeartMate 3 insertion, with a particular focus on right atrial inflow cannulation for the RVAD. Potential pitfalls and solutions are also described.
期刊介绍：
Operative Techniques in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery provides richly illustrated articles on techniques in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery written by renowned surgeons. Each issue presents cardiothoracic topics in adult cardiac, congenital, and general thoracic surgery. Each specialty of interest to the thoracic and cardiovascular surgeon is explored through two different approaches to a specific surgical challenge. Each article is thoroughly illustrated with original line drawings, actual intraoperative photos, and supporting tables and graphs.
