The Liver Knows: Preoperative MELD Score as a Predictor of Outcome in Patients Undergoing Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation. A Single‐Center Retrospective Cohort Study

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Right‐side heart failure (RSHF) jeopardizes left ventricular assist device (LVAD) short‐ and long‐term outcomes. The model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score is an effective means of evaluating liver dysfunction. This study aims to investigate the predictive utilit...
