VHVI LVAD/Transplant/Advanced Heart Failure Registry: Mary Keebler (Head of VAD for CV Medicine) / Simon Maltais (CV Surgery) / Mary Beth Davis (Research Coordinator) / Nicole / Nick Haigland (Fellow)

Advanced heart failure (HF) patients with a left ventricular assist device. REDCap database includes patients form Vanderbilt, Michigan, and Mayo Clinic. More centers may be added. Main study interests are to define risk factors related to poor outcomes, e.g. death and pump thrombosis. Hui Nian has worked with the group. Data are collected intra-operatively, post-op, 1w 3w 6w 12m 18m 2y 3y. 13 abstracts were just submitted. VAD registry began Oct 2012. The main heart registry began at VU in 2009. There are 108 patients in the VAD registry as of 2013-11-21. An area of interest is acquired von Willebrand factor deficiency. Two types of LVAD are in play: axial flow (Heart Mate) and centrifugal flow (HeartWare, the newer one).

  4. Dr.Maltais, Dr.Haglund, Mary Beth Davis - grant application: Blood products utilization in VAD patients at pre-op, intra-op, post-op, and outpatients care. For BTT pts, post-transplant data will also be collected. Potential control group is heart-transplant pts without VAD. Also interested in finding demographic , baseline or lab measures associated blood utilization at any time points. Suggest using data reduction, or redundancy analysis before fitting model. Four types of blood products, each one has utilization measure in integer units. n=50 VAD, 30 go on to transplant. Some patients are not candidates for VAD because of congenital abnormality or patient decision. Main predictors may be pre-op labs: coagulation and CBC. Casecading time periods for modeling: pre; pre + intra; pre + intra + post. --- 12/18/2013 -
