Key result
Mechanical circulatory support technology has rapidly progressed from short-term pulsatile devices to durable continuous-flow pumps, extending survival for patients with advanced heart failure.
This review outlines the historical evolution of mechanical circulatory support devices, emphasizing the shift to continuous-flow LVADs and marking the first successful durable LVAD implantation in Bangladesh.
Supports continuous-flow LVAD use in advanced HF; extends device evolution literature but leaves open prospective validation needs.

Anisuzzaman et al. (2022) conducted a review in Advanced heart failure. Mechanical Circulatory Support (MCS) was evaluated. Mechanical circulatory support technology has rapidly progressed from short-term pulsatile devices to durable continuous-flow pumps, extending survival for patients with advanced heart failure.
