LVAD is a mechanical pump implanted inside the chest to help a weakened or failing heart pump blood more effectively. It supports the left ventricle, the main pumping chamber of the heart, and helps maintain adequate circulation to vital organs.
LVADs are typically used for patients with advanced heart failure who do not respond to standard medical therapy. The device may serve as a “bridge to transplant” for those awaiting a heart transplant or as long-term (destination) therapy for patients who are not transplant candidates.
During the procedure, the surgeon places the LVAD inside the chest and connects it to the heart and aorta. The device is powered by an external controller and battery pack, which remain outside the body and are connected through a driveline passing through the abdominal wall.
Many international patients choose to undergo LVAD at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh in India, where advanced expertise, modern technology, and world-class patient care ensure excellent outcomes.

Yes. LVAD implantation is considered safe when performed at specialised cardiac centres. However, as it is a major heart surgery, potential risks include infection, bleeding, blood clots, stroke, and device malfunction. These risks are carefully managed with advanced surgical techniques and close post-operative care.
Patients with severe heart failure who do not respond to medications and whose hearts are too weak to pump blood effectively are considered candidates. It may also be recommended for those waiting for a heart transplant or those who cannot undergo a transplant.
Hospital stay is usually 2–3 weeks, including intensive care monitoring. Patients can return to light activities after 4–6 weeks, with full adjustment to the device typically achieved within 2–3 months.
Yes. Many patients live active, fulfilling lives with an LVAD. They can walk, travel, and perform daily tasks while following medical advice and proper care routines for the device and power supply.
