Combined Venoarterial ECMO and Impella-CP Circulatory Support for Cardiogenic Shock Due to Papillary Muscle Rupture

Papillary muscle rupture (PMR) is a catastrophic complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We report on 3 consecutive patients with AMI cardiogenic shock due to PMR, treated with combined venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and Impella-CP axial flow circulatory support as a bri...

Summary:Papillary muscle rupture (PMR) is a catastrophic complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We report on 3 consecutive patients with AMI cardiogenic shock due to PMR, treated with combined venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and Impella-CP axial flow circulatory support as a bridge to definitive surgery.
