Michael Amponsah, M.D., FACC, an interventional cardiologist at Mohawk Valley Health System, shares a case of Impella CP for a non-ischemic cardiomyopathy patient who presented in cardiogenic shock. Learn more at ProtectedPCI.com/DAIC. The patient, a 51-year-old male, was diagnosed with NYHA Class III non-ischemic systolic heart failure with an ejection fraction of 20 percent and an ICD. He presented to the emergency department with ICD shocks and his hemodynamics declined over a 12 hour period and blood work showed a 20 percent decline in kidney function. Amponsah placed a right heart cath and performed an echocardiogram showing LV dysfunction. The team decided to place an Impella CP in the cath lab to support the patient’s heart. This was effective in unloading the LV and organ perfusion. This also provided the team with time to transfer the patient to another facility.   Related Impella Video Content: VIDEO: Complex PCI Involving Prior CABG and Comorbidities — Interview with Perwaiz Meraj, M.D. VIDEO: Analysis of Outcomes for 15,259 U.S. Patients with AMICS Supported with the Impella Device — Interview with William O'Neill, M.D. VIDEO: The Door-to-Unloading (DTU) STEMI Safety and Feasibility Trial — Interview with Navin Kapur, M.D.
