Ever since the adoption of the newest heart allocation system in the
Fall of 2018, clinicians have grappled with the safest method of
utilizing temporary mechanical circulatory support to get patients
successfully to transplantation. In unique patients that do not have a
durable left ventricular assist device as a therapeutic option and have

attractive solution.30 Aug 2021Submitted to Journal of Cardiac Surgery 30 Aug 2021Submission Checks Completed
