Title: Hemodynamic Concepts Important to Protected PCI

Biography

Biography: Christine Gasperetti

Abstract

With advancements in cardiac technology, it has now become possible to offer patients with complex and high-risk coronary artery disease, including those with cardiogenic shock (CGS) revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Such patients often require hemodynamic support and are the procedure is thus termed "protected PCI". Protected PCI has led to breakthrough in the survival ceiling for patients presenting with CGS complicating acute myocardial infarction (Ml) and to redefinition of protocols with which to best offer PCI in the setting of CGS. Ultimately, use of varying support models may lead to improved understanding of the components of shock states in ischemia and infarction.
The presentation includes two patients who required high risk PCI in the setting of CGS. The first patient presented with Inferior Ml complicated by RV infarction and was supported with RV Assist Device

(RVAD). The second patient presented with cardiac arrest during Anterior Ml and underwent emergent PCI with limited support in the off-site cardiac catheterization laboratory setting.

Following these presentations, an introduction to analysis of hemodynamics of support using the Harvi model developed by Daniel Burkhoff, MD PhD and colleagues will be given and used to illustrate important hemodynamic concepts in ventricular supfjort including changes in cardiac power, uncoupling of systemic and LV pressures, changes in contractility and coronary perfusion pressure, and comparison of devices used.
