Mechanical circulatory support using modified TandemHeart ventricular assist device in neonates with CHD.

TandemHeart, an adult ventricular assist device, is also being used in children for mechanical circulatory support. In this case series, we describe our experience using TandemHeart ventricular assist device with a modified circuit to provide mechanical circulatory support in three neonates for multiple indications. TandemHeart ventricular assist device with a modified circuit can be used successfully to provide extracorporeal support to neonates with complex CHD.
