Abstract
This thesis has been an effort to improve the outcomes of patients suffering from end-stage heart failure treated with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy. Moreover, this thesis aimed to assess and thereafter accurately predict the onset of adverse events to aid in future patient selection criteria. Although outcomes following LVAD implantation have greatly improved since its introduction, further research is paramount for the ongoing success of this treatment modality.
