    Tears or ruptures of the right ventricular outflow tract may occur during the procedure, especially if the tract is already heavily calcified. [4] This is reported to occur in up to 9% of procedures. [4] Most cases are manageable by using a covered stent and do not lead to severe bleeding. [4] Infective endocarditis occurs at a rate of about 1% ...

    The HeartWare HVAD could be implanted through limited access without sternotomy, however in 2021 Medtronic discontinued the device. [47] [44] In a small number of cases left ventricular assist devices, combined with drug therapy, have enabled the heart to recover sufficiently for the device to be able to be removed (explanted).
