Figure 1 Animal preparation and flow chart of the experimental protocol in the model of right ventricular failure in pigs (n = 10). An LVAD was implanted and a cavoaortic shunt was created from the right atrium (the cannulas into the superior vena cava) to the aorta. LVAD, Left ventricular assist device.
