2.4
Have a backup Automated Impella® Controller, purge cassette, connector cable,
and Impella® RP Catheter available in the unlikely event of a device failure.
Do NOT use the bed mount as a handle.
Insertion through the left femoral vein may result in repeated attempts to properly
position the Impella RP, which could cause excessive manipulation and pump
damage. As a result, left femoral insertion should be avoided whenever possible.
