The EACTAIC Education Committee has organized the seminar episode in collaboration with the IRCCS Policlinico di Sant’Orsola.

The IRCCS Policlinico di Sant’Orsola Bologna, Italy, supported this seminar episode.

What’s in it for me?

After participating, you will better understand the following:

  1. The importance of tailoring a mechanical circulatory support for a specific patient
  2. The importance of a cardiogenic shock multidisciplinary team
  3. The role of LV unloading, alone or in combination with other short-term MCS
  4. How and when to wean from a LV unloading device.
