摘要:
Ventricular assist device (VAD) thrombosis is a devastating, potentially fatal complication suffered by patients requiring mechanical circulatory support. We present a patient with thrombosis of a HeartMate II VAD with concurrent hemolysis and increased carbon monoxide formation. Using a specialized thrombelastographic assay, we detected marked plasmatic hypercoagulability mediated in part by the formation of carboxyhemefibrinogen. ASAIO Journal 2013;59:93-95.
