Popis: Although left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is associated with improved heart failure survival, the impact of pre-implantation Impella support on outcomes is unknown. We undertook this study to evaluate the impact of preoperative Impella support on LVAD outcomes.We conducted a retrospective review of all Heartmate 3 LVAD implants. Primary stratification was by the need for preoperative Impella support with the 5.0/5.5 device. Longitudinal survival was assessed by the Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were developed to evaluate mortality. Secondary outcomes included changes in laboratory values during Impella support.From 2017 to 2021, 87 patients underwent LVAD implantation. Sixteen were supported with a single inotrope, 36 with dual inotropes, 27 with Impella, and 3 with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). When stratified by the need for Impella, there was no difference in survival at 30-days (98.3 [88.2-99.8]% vs. 96.3 [76.5-99.5]%, p = .59), 1-year (91.0 [79.8-96.2] vs. 74.9 [51.7-88.2], p = .10), or at 2 years (87.9 [74.3-94.5] vs. 74.9 [51.7-88.2], p = .15). On multivariable modeling, the need for preoperative Impella was not associated with an increased hazard of 1-year (1.24 [0.23-6.73], p = .81) or 2-year mortality (1.05 [0.21-5.19], p = .95). After 7 (5-10) days of Impella support, recipient creatinine (p .01), creatinine clearance (p = .02), and total bilirubin (p = .053) improved and lactic acidosis resolved (p .01).Preoperative Impella support is not associated with increased short or long-term mortality but is associated with improved renal and hepatic function as well as total body perfusion before LVAD implantation.
