Is this the right MOMENTUM?—evidence from a HeartMate 3 randomized trial
2019
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are widely used in selected patients suffering from end-stage heart failure (HF). However, their large-scale use has been limited in the past by their adverse events rate. With the development of the third LVAD generation characterized by centrifugal pumps, the role and application of LVADs for treating HF patients has globally increased with improving results, better quality of life and survival. This led to a growing need for scientific evidence supporting the large-scale application of this therapy.
