## Resource

On this episode of JHLT: The Podcast, the Digital Media Editors invite first author Ahmet Bilgili , from the University of Florida's Congenital Heart Center, and senior author Eric I. Jeng, MD , from the University of Florida's MCS program. Bilgili and Dr. Jeng discuss their paper, " Optimal pretransplant duration with HeartMate III left ventricular assist device: A contemporary analysis ." The discussion explores: Prior gaps in the literature regarding contemporary HM3 outcomes in relation to transplantation—and the study's potential influence on policy Which length of HM3 support influenced better post-transplant outcomes—and which ages were most influenced How these findings might change standard practice For the latest studies from JHLT , visit www.jhltonline.org/current , or, if you're an ISHLT member, access your Journal membership at www.ishlt.org/jhlt .
