Destination therapy (DT) is the indication to implant a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in a patient with stage D heart failure who is not a candidate for heart transplantation. The implantable LVAD has been utilized in Japan since 2011 under the indication of bridge to transplant (BTT). After almost 10 year lag, DT has finally been approved and reimbursed in May 2021 in Japan. To initiate the DT program in Japan, revision of the LVAD indication from BTT is necessary. Also, in-depth discussion of caregiver issues as well as end-of-life care is indispensable. For that purpose, we assembled a DT committee of multidisciplinary members in August 2020, and started monthly discussions via web-based communication during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a summary of the consensus reached after 6 months’ discussion, and we have included as many relevant topics as possible. Clinical application of DT has just started, and we are willing to revise this consensus to meet the forthcoming issues raised during real-world clinical experience.

Hypervolemic hyponatremia is often complicated with advanced heart failure together with increased excretion of sodium by diuretics. Tolvaptan, an oral vasopressin-2-receptor antagonist, has been previously reported to improve congestion and correct hyponatremia through increased excretion of free water. However, there is little evidence concerning the administration of tolvaptan in patients with stage D heart failure. We experienced 2 patients with stage D heart failure who received 3.75 mg/day of tolvaptan to correct hyponatremia before ventricular assist device implantation. It may be useful, even for patients with stage D heart failure, to administer a low dose of tolvaptan to treat hyponatremia before ventricular assist device implantation to avoid a drastic alteration in serum sodium concentration perioperatively.
