Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) as a Bridge to Recovery for Tachycardia-Mediated Cardiomyopathy
J Card Surg.
2015 Nov.
Abstract
A case is described of cardiogenic shock that occurred following use of sotalol in a patient with severe left ventricular dysfunction. The patient required left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement with subsequent myocardial recovery to a degree that allowed eventual device removal following 140 days of support.
