Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a life-threatening condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Despite advances in biomedical research and technology, CS is still associated with high mortality. Some devices (Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), Impella, Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VA-ECMO), placed through vascular accesses, can support the heart in the failing phase. The aim of this systematic review of the scientific literature is to evaluate safety, efficacy and effectiveness of Impella 5.0 in CS.

Abstract

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a life-threatening condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Despite advances in biomedical research and technology, CS is still associated with high mortality. Some devices (Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), Impella, Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VA-ECMO), placed through vascular accesses, can support the heart in the failing phase. The aim of this systematic review of the scientific literature is to evaluate safety, efficacy and effectiveness of Impella 5.0 in CS.
