Ryan J. Tedford, MDCertificationsDr. C. Gazes Endowed Chair in Heart Failure; Professor of Medicine/Cardiology; Section Chief, Heart Failure; Medical Director, Cardiac Transplantation University / Hospital AffiliationMedical University of South Carolina AboutDr. Tedford is an internationally recognized clinical researcher and has published over 100 peer-reviewed original research manuscripts, invited expert reviews, editorials and book chapters. His research efforts are focused on hemodynamic assessment of right ventricle function and its interaction with the pulmonary circulation and left heart. This spans the fields of pulmonary hypertension, left heart disease, exercise physiology, systemic sclerosis, cardiac transplantation and mechanical circulatory support. His group is currently investigating the diagnostic and prognostic value of right ventricular reserve and is relation to resting RV-PA coupling.

The 2023 International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation Guidelines for Mechanical Circulatory Support: A 10- Year UpdateIn 2013, the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) published the first official guidelines for implantable mechanical circulatory support (MCS) as commissioned by its Board of Directory. Considering the substantial growth and technological advancement in the MCS field, much of the content of the 2013 report is no longer clinically relevant and new information is needed.
