Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Subject is hemodynamically stable and a heart team, including a cardiac surgeon, has determined that an elective or urgent (not emergent) high-risk PCI is the appropriate therapeutic option
Age ≥18 years and ≤90 years
Must not have
Previous aortic valve replacement or reconstruction
Cardiogenic shock or acutely decompensated pre-existing chronic heart failure. Cardiogenic shock is defined as: systemic hypotension (systolic BP <90 mmHg or the need for inotropes/pressors to maintain a systolic BP >90 mmHg) plus one of the following: any requirement for pressors/inotropes prior to arrival at the catheterization laboratory, clinical evidence of end-organ hypoperfusion or use of IABP or any other circulatory support device

Summary

This trialassesses how safe Impella ECP device is for adults needing heart procedure to prevent heart and stroke complications.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-90 who need high-risk heart procedures (not emergency ones) and are stable enough for it. They must understand the study and agree to participate. People with kidney failure on dialysis, severe valve disease, blood clots in the heart, certain vessel diseases, recent strokes or bleeding in the brain, severe heart failure, or part of vulnerable groups like those with mental disabilities can't join.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a device called Impella ECP during high-risk procedures to open blocked arteries in the heart. It's looking at how well it prevents major problems like heart attacks or strokes after treatment. Everyone gets the same device; there's no comparison group.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include issues related to placing the device such as bleeding at the site where it enters your body, damage to blood vessels, blood clots that could lead to stroke or other complications from having a foreign object inside your body.
