2 Heart Transplantation is the gold standard treatment for CHF albeit its inability to serve to the current demand.

3 imbalance between supply and demand The increasing routine use of ventricular assist devices (VADs) to keep patients alive until heart transplantation paved the way to their clinical use as an established treatment for end-stage heart failure (DT).

6 The Destination Therapy SAGA

7 Extracorporeal systems The pump and the source of energy were placed outside of the patient body Para-corporeal systems The power source was external and the pump was fixed to the patient s external surface (smaller compressors) => out of bed and walk around Intra- corporeal systems Totally implantable pulsatile-flow pumps, fed first via pneumatic systems, and subsequently electrically (LVAD). The implant, due to its size, must be placed in the abdominal cavity (intra- or extra-peritoneal).

8 Pulsatile / Volume Displacement Varying the rate can increase flow/output and change ventricular dimension and volume

9 First-generation devices: pulsatile-volume displacement pumps The quality of life was significantly improved at one year in the device group. The frequency of serious adverse events in the device group was 2.35 times that in the medical-therapy group, with a predominance of infection, bleeding, and malfunction of the device.

10 Survival improvement J Am Coll Cardiol 2007;50:741 7 QoL improvement The frequency of serious adverse events in the device group higher than in the medical-therapy group, First-generation devices: pulsatile-volume displacement pumps with a predominance of neurologic events, infection, bleeding.

Intermacs was established as a joint effort of : National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Clinicians, Scientists, Industry representatives.

32 Ann Thorac Surg 2014;97: Between 2004 and October 2012, 12,969 Heart-Mate II pumps were implanted worldwide. The incidence of percutaneous lead dysfunction was 1,418 events occurring in 1,198 pumps (9.2% of pumps) over a cumulative support period of 13,932 patientyears.

53 Acta Clin Belg 2014:69;165 Direct transplantation without bridging is the most cost-efficient treatment. The cost per patient per year for DT is similar to HTX considering its bridging activity

54 Conclusions DT represents an increasing LVAD application and currently accounts for one third of overall MCS activity. Evolution from pulsatile to continuous flow technology has dramatically improved 1- and 2-year survivals. Important subsets of DT patients now enjoy survival that may be competitive with heart transplantation out to about 2 years. Future studies will focus on transplant-eligible subsets who may benefit from informed discussions about MCS as an alternative long-term option. Patient selection and timing.
