Suggested Schema for Support Device in High-Risk PCI
Patient With Left Main, Last Remaining Conduit, or Severe Multivessel Disease | Anticipated Noncomplex PCI | Anticipated Technically Challenging or Prolonged PCI |
---|---|---|
Normal or mildly reduced left ventricular function | None | IABP/Impella as back up |
Severe left ventricular dysfunction (EF <35%) or recent decompensated heart failure | IABP/Impella as back up | Impella or TandemHeart, choice dependent upon vascular anatomy, local expertise, and availability. ECMO for concomitant hypoxemia or RV failure. |
A suggested schema for use of support devices for high-risk PCI based upon clinical and anatomic circumstances. The greater the likelihood of hemodynamic compromise or collapse the greater the potential benefit of MCS.
