Impella 5.0/5.5 Implantation via Innominate Artery: Further Expanding the Opportunities for Temporary Mechanical Circulatory Support

When axillary/subclavian arteries are not suitable because of size or anatomy, alternative access for the Impella pump 5.0/5.5 via the innominate artery allows circulatory support and eventually de-escalation from VA-ECMO to isolated left-side support. Moreover, less invasive surgery without the nee...

Sumario:When axillary/subclavian arteries are not suitable because of size or anatomy, alternative access for the Impella pump 5.0/5.5 via the innominate artery allows circulatory support and eventually de-escalation from VA-ECMO to isolated left-side support. Moreover, less invasive surgery without the need to open the pericardium reduces the risk of RV dysfunction and bleeding. Finally, upper body strategies allow early rehabilitation during support, which is associated with improved survival in cardiogenic shock.
