Abstract：
Infections remain a significant concern in patients receiving mechanical circulatory support (MCS), encompassing both durable and acute devices. This consensus manuscript provides updated definitions for infections associated with durable MCS devices and new definitions for infections in acute MCS, integrating a comprehensive review of existing literature and collaborative discussions among multidisciplinary specialists. By establishing consensus definitions, we seek to enhance clinical care, facilitate consistent reporting in research studies, and ultimately improve outcomes for patients receiving MCS.
摘要：
在接受机械循环支持（MCS）的患者中，感染仍然是一个重要的问题。包括耐用和急性装置。这份共识手稿提供了与耐用MCS设备相关的感染的最新定义，以及急性MCS感染的新定义。整合现有文献的全面审查和多学科专家之间的合作讨论。通过建立共识定义，我们寻求加强临床护理，促进研究中一致的报告，并最终改善接受MCS的患者的预后。
