Table 1.

Changes in hemodynamic parameters following Impella implantation.

Index Pre-Impella Post-Impella
MAP (mmHg) 47 66
CVP (mmHg) 14 22
CI (L/min/m2) 2.9 4.0
SVR (dyn-s-cm−5) 600 300

All hemodynamic parameters improved in the initial post-implantation period. For the pre-Impella values, the patient was still on multiple vasopressor agents. For the post-Impella values, vasopressors had been nearly titrated off. (MAP: mean arterial pressure, CVP: central venous pressure, CI: cardiac index, SVR: systemic vascular resistance).
