Abstract:Previous predictive models for postimplant right heart failure (RHF) following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation have demonstrated limited performance on validation datasets and are susceptible to overfitting. Thus, the objective of this study was to develop an improved predictive model with reduced overfitting and improved accuracy in predicting RHF in LVAD recipients. The study involved 11,967 patients who underwent continuous-flow LVAD implantation between 2008 and 2016, with an RHF inciden… Show more
