Ce protocole s'adresse à une population spécifique à haut niveau de gravité : les patients atteints d'insuffisance cardiaque avancée (stade D) à fraction d'éjection réduite (HFrEF) qui restent sévèrement symptomatiques malgré un traitement médical maximal dirigé par les recommandations (TMDG) et un traitement par dispositif.

In patients with advanced (stage D) HF refractory to GDMT and device therapy who are eligible for and awaiting MCS or cardiac transplantation, continuous intravenous inotropic support is reasonable as "bridge therapy."
In select patients with advanced HFrEF with NYHA class IV symptoms who are deemed to be dependent on continuous intravenous inotropes or temporary MCS, durable LVAD implantation is effective to improve functional status, QOL, and survival.
For selected patients with advanced HF despite GDMT, cardiac transplantation is indicated to improve survival and QOL.
