Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has evolved to become the most frequently used revascularization modality, but, despite advances, some patients still experience an unacceptable rate of periprocedural complication and mortality. Percutaneous left ventricular assist devices (pLVADs) have increasingly been used to provide myocardial protection in high-risk cases, although there is equivocal evidence to support this at present. 1 Preclinical and clinical physiology studies have reported increases in distal coronary pressure, 2 alongside favorable effects on the pressure-derived collateral flow index during an acute myocardial infarction3; however, there is a paucity of data on the impact of pLVAD on coronary flow. We, therefore, performed a detailed clinical coronary hemodynamic study to understand the physiological effects of mechanical left ventricle (LV) unloading on the microcirculation and cardiac coronary coupling. We studied 11 patients (aged 72±9 years) who were scheduled to undergo high-risk PCI with Impella (Abiomed, Boston) support. Preprocedure LV ejection fraction was 26±7%, and the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society (BCIS)-Jeopardy Score (range, 0–12) was 10±3. Sixty-four percent underwent multivessel PCI, and 32% underwent rotational atherectomy. Following PCI, distal coronary pressure (Pd) and flow (as average peak velocity [APV]) were measured with a dual pressure and Doppler sensor-tipped guidewire (Combowire; Philips, theNetherlands), with and without Impella support (level P8 and P1, respectively) and with autoregulation intact or disabled with intravenous adenosine. A pressure-volume loop catheter was inserted into the LV and pressure-volume loops obtained with and without support for calculation of LV stroke work and pressure-volume area. The following indices were derived: coronary microvascular resistance (MR= Pd/APV), coronary flow reserve (APV at hyperemia/APV at rest), coronary perfusion efficiency (accelerating wave energy/total wave energy), by wave intensity analysis performed on cardiac waves (King’s College London, United Kingdom). A Wilcoxon matched pairs signed-rank test was used to compare physiological variables (data are median [interquartile range]). Given the small sample size, P should be interpreted with caution, and results stated are only hypothesis generating. This study was approved by the UK Research Ethics Committee (reference 12/LO/1793), and all participants gave informed consent.
