Preoperative and postoperative Hemopump support for patients undergoing orthotopic heart transplantation

JM Duncan, RT Baldwin and OH Frazier
Department of Cardiac Transplantation, Texas Heart Institute/St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital, Houston 77225-0345.

The Hemopump (Johnson & Johnson Interventional Systems, Rancho Cordova, CA) can be used successfully as a bridge to cardiac transplantation in patients with advanced cardiogenic shock that proves to be irreversible. Some patients, however, may also benefit from maintaining Hemopump support for a period of time after transplantation. A technique has been developed for continuing Hemopump support after transplantation that does not require repositioning of the device.
