Mechanical circulatory support devices for elective percutaneous coronary interventions: novel insights from the Japanese nationwide J-PCI registry.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

We examined in-hospital outcomes of patients that required mechanical circulatory support (MCS), such as intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP), Impella®, or veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), for elective percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs).

Methods and results

The J-PCI is a prospective Japanese nationwide multicentre registry sponsored by the Japanese Association of Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics (CVIT) and designed to collect clinical variables and in-hospital outcome data on consecutive patients undergoing PCI. Of the 253 228 patients registered between January 2018 and December 2018, 1627 patients (0.6%) undergoing elective PCI under MCS at 551 sites were analyzed. The mean age of the patients was 74 years, and 25.2% of
