The Impella 5.5
®
with SmartAssist
®
heart pump is contraindicated for the
following situations:
• Mechanical aortic valves, severe aortic valvular stenosis
• Hematological disorder causing fragility of the blood cells or hemolysis
• Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM)
• Aneurysm or necrotomy or severe anomaly of the ascending aorta
and/or the aortic arch
• Mural thrombus in the left ventricle
• Ventricular septal defect (VSD) after myocardial infarction
• Anatomic conditions precluding insertion of the pump
POSSIBLE COMPLICATIONS (EU)
There are risks of complications with every procedure using a blood pump.
These include among others:
• Hemolysis
• Bleeding
• Immune reaction
• Embolism, thrombosis
• Vascular injury through to angionecrotomy
• Positioning problems causing haemolysis or reduced
haemodynamic support
• Infection and septicemia
• Dislocation of the pump
• Cardiovalvular injuries due to extreme movement of the suction
cannula in relation to the cardiac valve or as a result of attachment
by suction of the pump to the valve system following incorrect
positioning
• Endocardiac injuries as a result of attachment of the pump due to
suction
• Pump failure, loss of pump components following a defect
• Patient dependency on the pump after use for support
OVERVIEW
The Impella 5.5 Catheter is an intravascular microaxial blood pump that
supports a patient’s hemodynamic system. The Impella 5.5 Catheter is
inserted via axillary artery cut-down through the artery and into the left
ventricle. The Impella 5.5 Catheter may also be surgically inserted when
there is access to the ascending aorta through a sternotomy or thoracotomy.
When properly positioned, the Impella 5.5 Catheter delivers blood from
the inlet area, which sits inside the left ventricle, through the cannula, to
the outlet opening in the ascending aorta. Physicians and device operators
monitor the correct positioning and functioning of the Impella 5.5 Catheter
on the display screen of the Automated Impella
Controller.
