This week we review a recent paper on the topic of durable VAD's in congenital heart patients. Who is a candidate for such a device and what are the outcomes with these in this selected patient group? What are the impediments to their use? What role might public reporting have on the use of these devices and transplantation in general on the congenital heart population? We touch on all of these questions and more with Dr. Lauren Glass, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai - NYC where she is Associate Director of Heart Failure and Cardiac Transplantation. doi: 10.1097/MAT.0000000000001041
