A ventricular assist device (VAD) â also known as a mechanical circulatory support device â is an implantable mechanical pump that helps pump blood from the lower chambers of your heart (the ventricles) to the rest of your body. A VAD is used in people who have weakened hearts or heart failure. Although a VAD can be placed in the left, right or both ventricles of your heart, it is most frequently used in the left ventricle.

You may have a VAD implanted while you wait for a heart transplant or for your heart to become strong enough to effectively pump blood on its own.
