Cheney has an LVAD ( left ventricular assist device) which is a pump that is seated in the main chamber of the heart and literally takes over pumping the blood to the body. It is far more serious than a pacemaker
Cheney had a LVAD prior to his heart transplant in 2012. Does he require the LVAD today due to transplant failure?
Maybe that is what I need. After a heat attack in 2003 my left ventricle ejection fraction is only 25 with 40 considered to be heart failure. I had one stent put in last month. I’ll see the cardiologist this afternoon.
Chaney had a heart transplant a couple of years ago.
