Abstract

A ventricular assist device (VAD) is a form of mechanical circulatory support that uses a mechanical pump to partially or fully take over the function of a failed heart. In recent decades, the VAD has become a crucial option in the treatment of end-stage heart failure in adult patients. However, due to the lack of suitable devices and more complicated patient profiles, this therapeutic approach is still not widely used for pediatric populations. This article reviews the clinically available devices, adverse events, and future directions of design and implementation in pediatric VADs.

小儿心室辅助装置的现状和未来发展方向。

心室辅助装置（VAD）是一种机械循环支持方式，它使用机械泵部分或完全接管衰竭心脏的功能。近几十年来，VAD 已成为成年患者治疗终末期心力衰竭的重要选择。然而，由于缺乏合适的设备和患者情况较为复杂，这种治疗方法仍未广泛应用于儿科人群。本文回顾了临床上可用的设备、不良事件以及儿科 VAD 设计和实施的未来方向。

期刊介绍： Heart Failure Reviews is an international journal which develops links between basic scientists and clinical investigators, creating a unique, interdisciplinary dialogue focused on heart failure, its pathogenesis and treatment. The journal accordingly publishes papers in both basic and clinical research fields. Topics covered include clinical and surgical approaches to therapy, basic pharmacology, biochemistry, molecular biology, pathology, and electrophysiology. The reviews are comprehensive, expanding the reader''s knowledge base and awareness of current research and new findings in this rapidly growing field of cardiovascular medicine. All reviews are thoroughly peer-reviewed before publication.
