Increased pulsatility index is associated with adverse outcomes in left ventricular assist device recipients
Abstract Aims Recipients of left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) are exposed to increased risk of adverse clinical events. One of the potential contributing factors is non‐pulsatile flow generated by LVAD. We evaluated the association of flow patterns in carotid arteries and of increased arterial...
