Vasoplegia is not clearly defined in the literature as it pertains to the LVAD patient cohort. Patients bridged with LVADs appear to have higher rates of vasoplegia, however the aetiology of this is unclear and may be associated with continuous flow physiology or prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass time. A universal definition will aid in risk stratification, early recognition and management. Vasoplegia is not clearly defined in the literature as it pertains to the LVAD patient cohort.

A scaffolding system is required to support seeded cells as vascularization develops. In this study, we examined the effects of hypoxic conditions and oxygen release on cell survival in a synthetic system. We developed a three-dimensional system using CaO2/poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres suspended in a hydrogel. The system material was evaluated using stem cells under hypoxic conditions alongside controls to evaluate its oxygen-generating potential over a period of 21 days. The hydrogel acted as a flexible carrier supporting cell attachment and growth, protecting microspheres, and prolonging oxygen release. The system generated oxygen and supported cell growth, which are together expected to promote stem cell survival and growth in the weeks following implantation
