With advanced heart failure and cardiac surgery infrastructure, Fortis Malar Hospital offers Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) Therapy for eligible patients. Established in 1989, the NABH accredited hospital is located in Chennai, India, and has 180 beds.

An LVAD can provide continuous mechanical support to the failing left ventricle, helping improve blood circulation and reduce the workload on the heart. Depending on the patient's condition, it may be used while awaiting transplantation or as longer-term support. Comprehensive pre-operative testing helps determine the most appropriate treatment strategy.
