Patients and methods
We modified the TandemHeart Ventricular Assist Device circuit by introducing an oxygenator (Quadrox, Maquet, Rastatt, Germany) on the outflow limb, a hemoconcentrator (Sorin Inc., Arvada, Colorado, United States of America) to the pre-oxygenator tubing and gate clamps in post-oxygenator limb (See Figure 1).
