Mechanical Support Measures of Adjustment and QOL

Completed

Conditions studied: Quality of Life, Heart Failure, Cardiovascular Diseases

In brief

The purpose of this study is to develop a measurement system to assess adjustment to mechanical circulatory support (MCS) (also referred to as a ventricular assist device \[VAD\]) and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with advanced heart failure who receive a VAD. This investigators refer to this measurement system as Mechanical Circulatory Support: Adjustment and Quality of Life (MCS A-QOL).
