机械循环支架
的 UCSF机械循环支持(MCS)计划 cares for patients with advanced heart failure using various types of mechanical heart pumps. 的se pumps – called left ventricular assist devices, or LVADs – can improve quality of life for patients who are awaiting heart transplant, as well as those with no remaining options aside from end-of-life care. 的y may also be used to allow a failing heart to rest until other treatment options become viable.

When your heart failure symptoms become overwhelming and medications don't seem to be helping any longer, it is time to discuss other options with your cardiologist. Your doctor will talk to you about mechanical circulatory support therapy and can make a referral to our center to meet with the MCS cardiologist or surgeon. A referral is required to make an appointment with our program.
A referral to a different doctor does not mean that you can no longer be seen by your own cardiologist; he or she will follow up with you after your surgery, if it is determined that LVAD therapy is right for you.
如果你还没有这样做的话, 你需要接受几项检查, which the MCS physicians will review to determine whether you are a good candidate for LVAD therapy. 的se tests include 超声心动图, heart catheterization and 肺功能检查. You may need additional testing after you have seen the MCS physicians.
在团队审阅了所有测试结果之后, your MCS physician will contact you to discuss whether LVAD is the best treatment for your heart failure.
