Impella 2.5 -Â Minimally Invasive Heart Pump
The Impella 2.5 heart pump temporarily maintains blood flow during high-risk PCI procedures or cardiogenic shock. It allows the heart to rest and pumps blood to vital organs while the physician treats the underlining disease.
Protected PCI
Protected PCI, or protected stenting, is a proven and widely accepted procedure using Impella®, the world`s smallest heart pump, to temporarily assist the pumping function of the heart. Impella may enable placement of a stent for patients who are at high risk for complications or have severe heart disease.
Cardiogenic Shock
Cardiogenic shock is a life-threatening situation that occurs when the heart is unable to efficiently pump blood to the organs causing the body to begin to fail. During cardiogenic shock, Impella supports the heart`s pumping function, providing blood and oxygen to vital organs during treatment.
