Lvad?

Try http://www.heartcenteronline.com

They have teaching information regarding the LVAD. I used to work in a unit where we had many patients on them. Fascinating piece of technology

Thank you bunches :) That site looks very helpful! (off to spend hours reading now!)

You are most welcome :)
