Abstract
Background: Surgical Biventricular Assist Devices (sBiVADs) are well-established in end-stage heart failure, while newer and less-invasive percutaneous BiVADs (pBiVADs) are understudied. We report these two approaches in the largest pBiVAD patient series to date METHODS: All consecutive BiVAD-supported patients at our institution from 2014 to 2023 were retrospectively reviewed (n=46). sBiVAD (n=27) and pBiVAD patients (n=19) (defined as Impella 5.5 with Impella RP [n = 4] or percutaneous oxygenated-right ventricular assist device [n = 15]) were compared.
Results: There were no significant differences in preoperative risk factors. pBiVAD patients required fewer intraoperative packed red blood cells (2.0 vs 6.0, p <0.001), fresh frozen plasma (0.0 vs 4.0, p=0.001), and platelet (0.0 vs 4.0, p=0.001) transfusions. pBiVADs had fewer unanticipated returns to the operating room (0.47 ± 0.70 vs 2.22 ± 1.87 per patient, p < 0.001) and fewer postoperative packed red blood cells (8.0 vs 27.0, p<0.001), fresh frozen plasma (1.0 vs 8.0, p<0.001) and platelet (0.0 vs 10.0, p<0.001) transfusions. Thirty-day survival was not significantly different between sBiVADs and pBiVADs (56.6% vs 36.8%, p = 0.341).
Conclusions: We consider pBiVAD a less invasive, viable bridge to transplant, durable left ventricular assist device, or recovery.
