3 Right Ventricular Failure - Definition Right ventricular chamber overload with contractile abnormalities resulting in compromised ability to deliver blood to the pulmonary circulation Multiple proposed parameters to diagnose RV failure & monitor RV function

4 Right Ventricular Failure - Parameters Parameters suggestive of RV dysfunction in acute PE Right atrial pressure (mean >5) Pulmonary artery pressure (Systolic > 25, Diastolic > 10) Pulmonary vascular resistance (> 1600 dynes-sec cm -5 ) Right Ventricular stroke work index (< 300 mmhg/ml/m 2 ) RA-to-PCWP ratio (>0.63) PAPi (<1)

31 Impella RP in patients with Massive Pulmonary Embolism N. Blank; A. Kaki; M. Elder; W. Htun; T. Mohamad; T. Schreiber. Detroit Medical Center- Heart hospital

32 Impella RP in a series of 4 patients Four consecutive patients with Massive PE and RV Cardiogenic shock refractory to inotropes treated with RP Impella as bridge to recovery. Prior to Impella RP, all patients treated with EKOS/CDT.

33 Major parameters: Baseline (before Impella RP insertion): Cardiac index = 1.7 l/min/m2 (range ). Mean pulmonary blood pressure = 42 mmhg (range 33-57) Impella RP used an average of 3.75 days (range of 1-6). During Impella RP treatment all patients improved clinically & hemodynamically: Cardiac index increased to 2.5 l/min/m2 (range ), p=0.09 on day 1 Cardiac index increased to 3.1 l/min/m2 (range ), p<0.05 at day 2. Echocardiography in two patients showed marked improvement in RV size and function. The other two patients had persistent severe RV dilation & hypokinesis. No significant change was found in renal function, hemoglobin and platelets level with Impella RP treatment. No patient required transfusion. One patient treated with Impella RP for 6 days had hemoglobin level drop from 13.7 to 7.3 gm/dl.

44 Conclusion: There are several proposed criteria for assessing RV failure Critical to Recognition of RV failure as an etiology for patient deterioration Time sensitive- implementation of medical & invasive strategies to treat RV failure Several invasive mechanical options are available to offload RV Promote RV recovery and stabilize patients Impella RP provides mechanical circulatory support in PE patients complicated by acute refractory right heart failure despite CDT. Low adverse events rates observed in this small series Tandem Heart ECMO Further study is warranted
