摘要
The physiological response of the right ventricle (RV) following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is difficult to predict. We aimed to investigate RV geometric and functional changes after LVAD insertion and their effects on clinical outcomes.We retrospectively reviewed 188 patients who underwent HeartMate 3 implantation at our center between November 2014 and September 2021. The RV end-diastolic diameter (RVEDD) and RV end-diastolic area (RVEDA) were measured on preoperative and predischarge transthoracic echocardiography. The nonadapted group included patients with increased RVEDD and RVEDA at discharge. The composite outcome was defined as death or readmission due to worsening right heart failure.There were 82 patients (44%) who had a nonadapted and 106 patients (56%) who had an adapted RV. Preoperatively, the nonadapted group had smaller RVEDD (46 vs 49 mm, p < 0.001) and RVEDA (27 vs 31 cm2, p < 0.001). At discharge, the nonadapted group had larger RVEDD (51 vs 43 mm, p < 0.001) and RVEDA (33 vs 27 cm2, p < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated worse 3-year survival (77% vs 91%, p = 0.006) and freedom from composite outcome (58% vs 85%, p < 0.001) in the nonadapted group. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards model showed that nonadaption (hazard ratio [HR] 3.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.29-7.40, p = 0.01) and age (HR 3.73, 95% CI 1.42-9.77, p = 0.007) were independent predictors of composite outcome.Acute RV dimensional changes after LVAD insertion may represent intrinsic RV function and may be a useful prognostic marker.
