Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - It will be investigated whether and to what extent physical activity has an influence on LVAD power. For this purpose, LVAD power will be measured at different activity levels. The measurements take place continuously (hourly) over a period of 7 days. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - It will be investigated whether body posture has an influence on LVAD power. For this purpose, LVAD power will be measured at different body positions. The measurements take place continuously (hourly) over a period of 7 days. - It will be investigated whether an ECG can be used to read out LVAD information (especially LVAD power). The measurements take place continuously (hourly) over a period of 7 days. | — |
