This syndrome is associated with other diseases affecting humans as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, multiple scleros…
Heart failure is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in many countries. Despite the increasing evolution in drug therapy capable of modifying its natural evolution, the time course of the disease is inevitable. The definitive treatment still remains heart transplantation, which is, however, limited by the shortage of donors. Ventricular Assist Devices (VAD) can be used in this scenar…
