Figure 6. — Kaplan-Meier curves for all-cause mortality in patients receiving ECMELLA treated with early LV unloading and delayed LV unloading versus matched patients treated with only VA-ECMO. A, Only patients receiving ECMELLA in whom the Impella was implanted before or within 2 hours after the VA-ECMO implantation were considered for the matching; eg, matching patients with early LV unloading versus patients treated with VA-ECMO only. B, Only patients receiving ECMELLA in whom the Impella was implanted >2 hours after the VA-ECMO implantation were considered; eg, matching patients with delayed LV unloading versus patients treated with VA-ECMO only. ECMELLA indicates Impella+extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; HR, hazard ratio; LV, left ventricular; and VA-ECMO, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
