Impella ECP: Subjects will receive the Impella ECP prior to high-risk percutaneous intervention. Device escalation or early termination of the study will be allowed for subjects as deemed necessary by the treating physician. Subjects will be followed until 30-days post-intervention.
Study summary
The Impella ECP EFS is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, feasibility study evaluating the safety of the Impella ECP device in adult patients undergoing an elective or urgent high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention.

Inclusion Criteria:
1. Age ≥ 18 years and ≤ 90 years
2. Subject has signed the informed consent
3. Scheduled for an elective or urgent high risk percutaneous coronary intervention with hemodynamic support
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Aortic valve disease that is anticipated to be prohibitive to Impella ECP crossing, including greater than mild aortic stenosis
2. Previous aortic valve replacement or reconstruction
3. Thrombus in left ventricle
4. Subjects with known aortic vessel disease or with aortic dissection
5. Any contraindication that precludes placing an Impella including aortic, iliac or femoral disease such as tortuosity, extensive atherosclerotic disease or stenosis
6. Prior stroke with any permanent neurologic deficit or any prior intracranial hemorrhage or any prior subdural hematoma or known intracranial pathology pre-disposing to intracranial bleeding, such as an arteriovenous malformation or mass
7. Cardiogenic shock or acutely decompensated pre-existing chronic heart failure. Cardiogenic shock is defined as: systemic hypotension (systolic BP \<90 mmHg or the need for inotropes/pressors to maintain a systolic BP \>90 mmHg) plus one of the following: any requirement for pressors/inotropes prior to arrival at the catheterization laboratory, clinical evidence of end-organ hypoperfusion or use of IABP or any other circulatory support device
8. Infection of the proposed procedural access site or suspected systemic active infection, including any fever
9. Subject has previously been symptomatic with or hospitalized for COVID-19 unless he/she has been discharged (if hospitalized) and asymptomatic for ≥8 weeks and has returned to his/her prior baseline (pre-COVID) clinical condition
10. Known contraindication to heparin (i.e., heparin-induced thrombocytopenia), contrast media or Study-required medication(s) (i.e., aspirin)
11. Platelet count \<75k, bleeding diathesis, coagulopathy or unwilling to receive blood transfusions
12. Subject is on dialysis
13. Suspected or known pregnancy
14. Subject has other medical, social or psychological problems that, in the opinion of the Investigator, compromises the subject's ability to give written informed consent and/or to comply with study procedures
15. Participation in the active treatment or follow-up phase of another clinical study of an investigational drug or device which has not reached its primary endpoint
16. Subject belongs to a vulnerable population \[Vulnerable subject populations are defined as individuals with mental disability, persons in nursing homes, children, impoverished persons, homeless persons, nomads, refugees and those permanently incapable of giving informed consent. Vulnerable populations also may include members of a group with a hierarchical structure such as university students, subordinate hospital and laboratory personnel, employees of the Sponsor, members of the armed forces and persons kept in detention\]
Primary outcome measure(s)
Feasibility: successful hemodynamic support — through end of procedure, 1 day The feasibility assessment is defined as the successful delivery, initiation and maintenance of sufficient hemodynamic support to increase in or maintenance the MAP at physiologic levels (\> 60 mmHg)
Safety: Major Device-Related Adverse Events — through end of procedure, 1 day The rate of composite Major Device-Related Adverse Events
