Abstrakt: Objective: We report the largest pediatric single-center experience with an Impella (Abiomed Inc) catheter-based axial pump support.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all patients with acute decompensated heart failure or cardiogenic shock requiring catheter-based axial pump support between October 2014 and February 2022. The primary outcome per individual encounter (hospital admission) was defined as bridge-to-recovery, bridge-to-durable ventricular assist device support, bridge-to-cardiac transplantation, or death at 6 months after catheter-based axial pump explantation. Adverse events were defined according to the Pediatric Interagency Registry for Mechanical Circulatory Support criteria.
Results: Our final study cohort included 37 encounters with 43 catheter-based axial pump implantations. A single catheter-based axial pump device was used for support in 33 encounters (89%), with 2 catheter-based axial pump devices used in 3 (8%) separate encounters and 3 catheter-based axial pump devices used in 1 (3%) encounter. The median [range] age, weight, and body surface area at implantation were 16.8 [6.9-42.8] years, 61.1 [23.1-123.8] kg, and 1.7 [0.8-2.5] m 2 , respectively. The predominant causes of circulatory failure were graft failure/rejection in 16 patients (43%), followed by cardiomyopathy in 7 patients (19%), arrhythmia refractory to medical therapies in 6 patients (16%), myocarditis/endocarditis in 4 patients (11%), and heart failure due to congenital heart disease in 4 patients (11%). Competing outcomes analysis showed a positive outcome with bridge-to-recovery in 58%, bridge-to-durable VAD support in 14%, and bridge-to-cardiac transplantation in 14% at 6 months. Fourteen percent of encounters resulted in death at 6 months.
Conclusions: We demonstrate that catheter-based axial pump support in children results in excellent 1- and 6-month survival with an acceptable adverse event profile.
