Protected PCI

Protected PCI specializes in high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) supported by the Impella heart pump. This procedure offers effective hemodynamic support during both elective and urgent PCI for patients with complex coronary artery disease and compromised heart function. By minimally invasively implanting the Impella heart pump before PCI, the procedure helps maintain hemodynamic stability and unloads the left ventricle, allowing for more complete revascularization in a single session and enhancing long-term patient outcomes. The company provides extensive clinical evidence and educational resources for healthcare professionals. They offer guidance on selecting appropriate candidates for Protected PCI, particularly those with complex coronary anatomy and hemodynamic compromise. Their services include best practice protocols for using mechanical circulatory support during high-risk PCI. The Impella heart pump is the only FDA PMA-approved device for this purpose, supporting blood flow and stability during interventions. Protected PCI aims to improve patient outcomes in those with severe coronary artery disease through safer and more effective treatment options.
