Use of fusion imaging in safe, rapid, and accurate placement of percutaneous right ventricular assist device in the management of acute post‐surgical right ventricular failure

Abstract

AbstractFusion imaging (FI) technology using EchoNavigator that integrates live transesophageal echocardiogram and overlays on real‐time fluoroscopy. We present our experience placing a right ventricular (RV) support device, a ProtekDuo, in our patient with post‐operative RV failure using FI to guide the implantation.
