I would like to extend a moment of memory and gratitude for Barney Clark, the work of drs. Jarvik & Devries, I thank you on behalf of all the additional people with AHF who survived and are living because of your efforts & courage! @StavrosDrakos @KevinShahMD @TomHanffMD

On this day in 1982, a team led by Dr. William C. DeVries implanted the Jarvik-7, the first artificial heart, into Barney Clark. Unfortunately, Clark spent his last 112 days in the hospital and suffered considerably from complications and discomfort. He died on March 23, 1983.

Excellent #ICCAC webinar today given by @chrystine_l on CPR in #MCS/#LVAD #patients. Does your center do CPR? If so do you use the Lucas devise? Excellent reference on outcomes. #more #research needed!
