It’s a LEFT VENTRICLE ASSIST DEVICE. My ejection fraction is only 15% so this device will be put in my heart. A line will come out of my abdomen and go into a battery pack and this will constantly pump blood from my heart. I have appointment on March 15th. Google the LVAD it’s really amazing. Thanks for inquiring.
