“…[4] Mechanical circulatory assistance was initially used for post-cardiotomy cardiogenic shock, [5][6][7][8] but more recently it has been used for temporary cardiac support, bridge to recovery (BTR), until a donor heart becomes available for transplantation or "bridge to transplantation" (BTT). [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Destination therapy (DT) refers to the use of some of these pumps permanently to support the heart in patients who are not transplant candidates. The use of all these devices has continued to increase in recent years [16] and DT could become a major area where these devices are utilized.…”
