LVAD and Cardiac rehab - page 2

We also are admitting our first LVAD patient and would like to ask for protocol / care / emergency information please.

Go to Thoratec - Innovative Therapies for Advanced Heart Failure
for manuals, presentations, academic papers and guidelines about the Heartmate II pump.

I've also been looking for protocols for LVAD pts in Cardiac Rehab. I saw your post and wondered if you would be willing to forward your protocol to me as well since we will soon see our first patient. What you wrote originally was very helpful and we would appreciate any other information you have. Thanks

We are also admitting our first LVAD and would love to have your protocol.

Hello, I was wondering if you ever received a protocol for the LVAD pt? Would greatly appreciate it if you could send it to me. Thanks!!

No I never did receive anything. Fortunately we haven't received any of these patients yet.
