Study of used Impella heart pumps
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at used Impella heart pumps to see what deposits build up on them during treatment. If you've had an Impella pump for a certain length of time, this study helps doctors learn more about the device.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were treated with an Impella 5.5 heart pump for at least 25 days, or an Impella CP pump for more than 4 days.
- You are 18 years old or older.

This study tests whether using a temporary heart pump called Impella 5.5 can help strengthen a very weak and enlarged heart (dilated cardiomyopathy) in people who are waiting for a heart transplant. If you qualify, the pump is placed to support your heart temporarily, and the research team will check how your heart responds.
This study tests whether a special heart pump (Impella 5.5) can help patients with severe heart failure (cardiogenic shock) safely start and increase their heart failure medications. The goal is to see if this approach can help the heart recover and improve outcomes.
This registry study follows patients who have or will get a CCM device to see how well it works and how safe it is over time. It helps doctors learn more about improving heart function in people with heart failure.
This study is for people in the intensive care unit who are using a heart pump called Impella. It will collect information about how well the heart pumps blood during treatment to help doctors learn more.
This study reviews how well people tolerated the Impella heart pump during cardiogenic shock and what complications occurred. It looks at past cases from 2010 to 2022 to help doctors understand the safety of this device.
This study uses ultrasound (echocardiography) to see how the Impella 5.5 heart pump affects your heart's pumping ability, especially the right side. It might help doctors better understand and care for people who need this pump.
