The concomitant use of cavopulmonary anastomosis during LVAD support in a model of severe biventricular failure limited right ventricular overloading and resulted in better hemodynamic performance.
Background: Ischemic preconditioning is a method that prepares and protects cells to tolerate a long period of ischemia with the least possible injury.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
