Increased Plasma Concentrations of Extracellular Vesicles Are Associated with Pro-Inflammatory and Pro-Thrombotic Characteristics of Left and Right Ventricle Mechanical Support Devices

Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) allows for functional left and right heart ventricle replacement. MCS induces a systemic inflammatory reaction and prothrombotic state leading to an increased risk of thrombus formation. The extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoparticles released from active/inju...
