Intraoperative LVAD flow measured with an ultrasonic flow probe is approximately 0.5 L/min higher than the device's algorithmic estimation across all speed modes.
Does intraoperative Doppler flow measurement using an ultrasonic flow probe differ from algorithmic flow estimations in patients undergoing durable LVAD implantation?
Intraoperative ultrasonic flow probes measure LVAD flow approximately 0.5 L/min higher than device estimations, providing a valuable tool for hemodynamic evaluation.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
LVAD flow measured with an ultrasonic flow probe shows significantly higher results (approximately +0.5 L/min) compared to the flow estimated by the device. The difference remains constant at different LVAD speed modes. Intraoperative flow measurement employing an ultrasonic flow probe is a valuable tool for hemodynamic evaluation during implantation of a durable LVAD.
