The question of revascularization in patients with heart failure (HF) and severe left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction is almost as old as the specialty itself. 1 The STICH (Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure) trial did not demonstrate a survival benefit of coronary artery bypass grafting at 5 years in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM). 2 Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been studied in patients with severe LV dysfunction. The REVIVED-BCIS2 (Revascularization for

Durable left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have demonstrated improved survival rates in patients with advanced heart failure (HF) compared with those of pharmacological therapy. 1 Sequential design improvements with each generation have led to the development of the HeartMate 3 (Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, Illinois) LVAD, which is a fully magnetically levitated centrifugal pump that provides frictionless, wide blood-flow passages and intrinsic pulsatility. 2 The MOMENTUM 3 (Multicenter Study
