Evaluation of right ventricular function using liver stiffness in patients with left ventricular assist device†

OBJECTIVES: Although right ventricular failure (RVF) is a major concern after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, methodologies to evaluate RV function remain limited. Liver stiffness (LS), which is closely related to right-sided filling pressure and may indicate RVF severity, could...
