Novel Acoustic Biomarker of Quality of Life in Left Ventricular Assist Device Recipients
Background Although technological advances to pump design have improved survival, left ventricular assist device (LVAD) recipients experience variable improvements in quality of life. Methods for optimizing LVAD support to improve quality of life are needed. We investigated whether acoustic signatur...
