Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs) are lifesaving, but complex devices. They are surgically implanted into a patient's heart to assist with blood flow around the body. They have alarms and outputs that can provide significant information on the pathophysiology occurring in a patient presenting with an LVAD. In this video we dive into LVAD alarms and outputs as related to pathophysiologic conditions!
