Core Tip |
The EVAHEART is an implantable left ventricular assist system .We report the anesthesia management of a 56-year-old male patient with dilated cardiomyopathy undergoing an EVAHEART implantation. The anesthesia and perioperative management of EVAHEART implantation differ from traditional auxiliary devices. The first is the physiological characteristics of the non-pulsating continuous blood flow, which has the best pump function under relatively low average arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance. Second, TEE is used to verify the correct position of the EVAHEART and to verify that the native heart has only partial auxiliary functions. Blood flow through the left ventricular outflow tract is sufficient to open the aortic valve. Third, perioperative TEE is used to guide the volume supplement, the adjustment of vasoactive drugs, and the adjustment of pump speed. With the continuous shortage of heart donors, EVAHEART implantation is the last hope for patients with end-stage heart failure. In the future, increasing numbers of people will receive this kind of surgery, so we hope that this report can help everyone. |
