Abstract

Infection in patients supported with left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) is common and it can limit widespread implantation of mechanical assistance as destination therapy (DT). The infection-resistance power delivery system could improve longevity and quality of life. The Jarvik 2000 (Jarvik Heart, New York, NY, USA) driveline design showed a prolonged infection-free survival and a better quality of life compared to those patients supported with traditional LVAD with an abdominal cable. We report a singular driveline complication in a 71-year-old patient supported with a Jarvik 2000. A new retroauricular pedestal was successfully repositioned after the detachement of the first one.
