Weaning from Impella and mobilization of Impella patients [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal Supplements, 2021
AbstractWeaning of patients from Impella is complex and includes evaluation of the underlying disease, which is essential for estimating the potential for heart recovery. Monitoring during the weaning phase with echocardiography and pulmonary artery catheters will be discussed, as well as the use of intravenous and oral heart failure drugs.

Complications Leading to Death in Patients Supported by the Impella 5.5: Analysis From the FDA MAUDE Database. [PDF]

open access: yesCatheter Cardiovasc Interv
ABSTRACT Background The Impella 5.5 is increasingly being used in patients with cardiogenic shock, but experience with the device remains limited, and severe complications, including death, have been reported. This study aims to investigate causes of Impella 5.5‐related deaths.

Impella insertion for residual aortic dissection [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2021
Acute aortic dissection with coronary malperfusion is a life-threatening disease, resulting in demanding postoperative management. We report a successful insertion of percutaneous heart pump Impella through the intact true lumen in a patient with residual aortic dissection after the graft replacement and its recovery from the post-cardiotomy ...

A Review of the Impella Devices

open access: yesInterventional Cardiology: Reviews, Research, Resources, 2022
The use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) to provide acute haemodynamic support for cardiogenic shock or to support high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (HRPCI) has grown over the past decade. There is currently no consensus on best practice regarding its use in these two distinct indications.

Thrombocytopenia with Impella: Not a HIT

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2023
Key Points The Impella percutaneous microaxial ventricular assist device provides significant ventricular unloading, but at the cost of increased major bleeding, hemolysis, and thrombocytopenia. The present study shows that nearly all patients develop thrombocytopenia within 7 days of Impella insertion with 81% having a >50% decrease.

Percutaneous Salvage of an Impella Pretzel

open access: goldJACC: Case Reports, 2019
This report describes a case in which bedside manipulation of an Impella CP led to device entanglement in the aorta. Using a snare and counter-traction, we were able to untangle and re-deliver it into the left ventricle to restore normal device support. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Impella-Supported Cardiac Surgery [PDF]

open access: yesInterventional Cardiology, 2020
Background: Impella left ventricular assist devices are useful tools for the treatment of cardiogenic shock. The peri-operative use of Impella in patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) undergoing cardiac surgery, can be valuable for cardiac surgeons to prevent postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock. Methods: From September 2018

A case of left ventricular free wall rupture after insertion of an IMPELLA® left ventricular assist device diagnosed by transesophageal echocardiography

open access: yesJA Clinical Reports, 2021
Background The IMPELLA® is a minimally invasive left ventricular assist device. We report a case in which transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was useful in diagnosis of left ventricular rupture after IMPELLA® insertion. Case presentation A 75-year-old
