Biventricular assist support (BVAS) with centrifugal pump was used for the treatment of 48 y/o male patient with cardiogenic shock following coronary bypass surgery. Assist flow was 2 to 4 l/min in LVAS and 2 to 3 l/min in RVAS. RVAS was weaned in the fourth postoperative day and LVAS in the sixth. Cerebral infarction developed in the weaning period of LVAS. Post operative examination revealed good right and left ventricular function. Patient was well and returned to full work in a two years and two months after surgery. BVAS may be useful for the treatment of severe biventricular failure associated with stunned myocardium.

D002498 Centrifugation Process of using a rotating machine to generate centrifugal force to separate substances of different densities, remove moisture, or simulate gravitational effects. It employs a large motor-driven apparatus with a long arm, at the end of which human and animal subjects, biological specimens, or equipment can be revolved and rotated at various speeds to study gravitational effects.
