About LVAD Gear

I’m Brent and my LVAD was placed in 2012 at age 49. This new addition to my body was the new me and I needed to accommodate it. With my career gone, I focused my energies on making LVAD life easier. Consulting with physical therapists, a world-class clothing designer, and other LVAD recipients, we developed solutions, such as LVAD clothing to make life easier. Fresh solutions for different activities and lifestyles was one of our primary goals. We found ways to reduce the weight, fit the LVAD to your body, and make daily life easier. With our new products that you can find here at LVAD Gear, my LVAD life became sustainably simpler. I started my days using a shoulder bag, then switched to a vest when I dressed for the day. Then I used a sleeping belt at night. I also found several innovative methods to easily carry my emergency gear. Here at LVADGear.com, we are showcasing the products we have developed since 2012. These items were developed with the LVAD user in mind each step of the way. Every day, we strive to make your LVAD life easier. Please feel free to explore the site and pick out items for those you love who live with LVAD each day. We address 3 main problems with LVAD life: Safety, Comfort and Appearance. LVAD is an acronym for Left Ventricular Assist Device. It is a pump that is installed next to your heart. They cut a hole in the bottom of your left ventricle and pump the blood back up to your Aorta. The pump provides the power to circulate blood to the whole body, because your heart didn’t have the strength to do it. For most of us, getting our LVAD was a choice of live or die. We were faced with a choice of live a few weeks or months as we were, or get an LVAD. It’s an emotional journey, and often, the toughest thing we have ever been faced with. At the time we made that choice, we were focused on these two options, not the other aspects of living with an LVAD.
