Technical aspects of INCOR implantation for a patient with end-stage heart failure
The rising number of people with heart failure is leading to a corresponding increase in heart failure-related deaths. End-of-life care for these patients involves supplementing standard treatments with therapies aimed at managing symptoms that don't respond to guideline-directed medical care. The INCOR, a lightweight (200 g), implantable, magnetically levitated axial flow pump (providing non-pulsatile flow), is designed for long-term left ventricular support. This video tutorial details the initial single-centre clinical experience with this device.
