In today’s world – for many programs – your Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) Program patients are your pre-transplant patients. The new allocation system implemented in October 2018 has resulted in more Mechanical Circulatory Support (MCS) patients receiving transplants. In response to the impact of the MCS patient population upon heart transplant programs and transplant outcomes, Guidry & East offers a host of available products in that venue. We have four clinical partners and a cadre of independent consultants with clinical, administrative and financial expertise in this field.
