Abstract: A 60-year old man developed cardiogenic shock after a complicated percutaneous coronary intervention. He initially required 4.0L/min peripheral veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) as mechanical circulatory support. An Impella CP was inserted at the femoral… read more here.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (eCPR) is a rapidly growing treatment strategy due to increasing survival rates in selected patients. Additional left ventricular mechanical unloading, using a transfemoral micro-axial blood pump (Impella® Denver, Massachusetts, USA), might… read more here.

Abstract: Background and Objectives: Post-infarct ventricular septal rupture (PIVSR) continues to have significant morbidity and mortality, despite decreased prevalence. Impella and venoarterial extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (VA-ECMO) have been proposed as strategies to correct hemodynamic derangements and… read more here.
