Percutaneous Transvalvular Microaxial Flow Pump Support in Cardiology
Circulation. 2022 Apr 19;145(16):1254-1284. doi: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.058229. Epub 2022 Apr 18.ABSTRACTThe Impella device (Impella, Abiomed, Danvers, MA) is a percutaneous transvalvular microaxial flow pump that is currently used for (1) cardiogenic shock, (2) left ventricular unloading (combination of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and Impella concept), (3) high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions, (4) ablation of ventricular tachycardia, and (5) treatment of right ventricular failure. Impella-assisted forward blood flow increased mean arterial pressure and cardiac output, peripheral tissue pe...

Prevalence and prognostic impact of nonischemic late gadolinium enhancement in stress cardiac magnetic resonance
Conclusion NI-LGE can be detected in 11% of patients during stress-CMR providing a diagnosis of nonischemic cardiac disease. Patients with NI-LGE have worse prognosis than those with no-LGE.
