Pulmonary arterial elastance after LVAD implantation as a predictor of late right ventricular failure beyond six months of support

Late right ventricular failure (LRVF)—either de novo beyond the early postoperative period or persistent from earlier phases—remains a major complication after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality compared with resolved early RVF. The right ve...
