Great presentation on the vad weaning registry by Dr. Snehal Patel. Almost 90% survival in explanted patients but are we optimizing medical management after explant? @ajith1230 @ISHLT #ISHLT2023

Humbled to see Lakeisha Brown who courageously underwent a HeartMate III LVAD implant in January 2022. She has done extremely well and is now an advocate for patients with Stage D Heart Failure in need of timely LVAD evaluation. #ACC2023 @AbbottNews @BCMAdvStrlHeart @Texas_Heart
