Left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) are increasingly implanted in advanced heart failure patients to improve survival and quality of life either as a bridge to transplant, bridge to recovery or as destination therapy. LVAD therapy is often accompanied by a profound lowering of pulmonary artery pressure due to mechanical unloading of the left ventricle. Persistent pulmonary hypertension (PH) after LVAD implantation increases the risk of right ventricular failure (RVF). In this context pulmonary vasodilators have been implemented: a) as a strategy to reduce afterload and wean patients with RVF from inotropes in the early postoperative period, b) as long-term therapy aiming to optimize right heart hemodynamics and prevent late RVF and c) in order to lower persistently elevated pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) after LVAD and enable candidacy for heart transplantation. However, considerable uncertainty exists regarding the risks and benefits of these strategies and practices vary widely among institutions. This article provides an overview of the available evidence and existing recommendations regarding the use of pulmonary vasodilators in LVAD recipients.
