Cannulae are
inserted into
the internal

ECMO cannulation.
A dual-lumen
cannula is inserted
into the IJ vein
(extending
through the RA and
into the IVC).
Venous blood is
withdrawn through
the drainage lumen
with ports in both
the SVC and IVC.
Reinfusion of
oxygenated blood
occurs through the
second lumen with
a port situated in
the RA.

Practical considerations
Case study 1
67 year old man with ischemic
cardiomyopathy (EF 25%) presents
with progressive dyspnea,
confusion, acute on chronic renal
failure and refractory hypotension.
Recent history of MI/cardiogenic
shock requiring inotropic and
balloon pump support, complicated
by respiratory failure and
ischemia/gangrene to right foot.
Other co-morbidities
Peripheral Arterial
Disease
Chronic Kidney
Disease
Multiple prior MIs
Recent DES implants
Paroxysmal AFib
History of prostate CA
Malnutrition
Hospital Course:
Refractory Cardiogenic Shock
IABP Placement:
Subclavian Approach
Given the extensive co-morbidities and
clear need for additional hemodynamic
support pending a decision on
destination-LVAD therapy, the decision
was made to proceed with a right
subclavian IABP.
This was performed without
complications in the OR using a limited
cut-down and synthetic graft
anastomosed to the RSCA with
fashioning of a hemostatic valve through
which a Maquet 7.5 Fr. IABP was placed
into the descending aorta

Summary
Graded approach to device choice / strategy
should be based on:
Extent of support required
Duration of support anticipated
Consideration use of hemodynamic support early
in the treatment course and plan accordingly
Cost considerations, anatomic/technical issues
and cardio vs. cardiopulmonary failure issues
factor in to decision
