Abstract
Outcomes of pediatric heart transplantation have significantly improved over the last 2 decades. We believe such improvement is, at least in part, attributable to maturation of MCS strategy, characterized by avoiding the use of temporary devices such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a bridge-to-transplant and a more aggressive use of long-term devices.
