ECP EFS Trial Summary

This trial is testing how safe and effective the Impella ECP device is for people undergoing a high-risk heart procedure.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-90 scheduled for a high-risk heart procedure (percutaneous coronary intervention) with hemodynamic support. Participants must consent and not have conditions like previous valve replacements, severe vessel disease, or recent COVID-19 symptoms. They can't join if they're on dialysis, pregnant, in shock, part of another study's active phase, belong to vulnerable populations or have bleeding disorders.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Impella ECP Early Feasibility Study is testing the safety of the Impella ECP device in patients undergoing elective high-risk heart procedures. It's a single-group study where all participants receive the same treatment to see how well it works and what risks are involved.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, similar devices may cause vascular complications at insertion sites, bleeding due to blood thinners used during the procedure, issues related to heart function and possible reactions to contrast media used.
