The Vortex System is intended to provide temporary circulatory support in subjects undergoing elective high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (HR-PCI).
The Alfred Hospital
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Skane University Hospital
Lund, Sweden
Number of Participants With Technical Success
Successful delivery of the device to the correct anatomical position and successful operation and removal of the Vortex circulatory support system during high-risk PCI procedure.
Time frame: Technical success is measured during the procedure. Procedure time varies by patient and is measured from 1st vascular puncture for sheath insertion to vascular closure post sheath removal. Mean procedure time was 116.0 minutes (70.0 min, 148.0 max).
Number of Participants With Clinical Success
No conversion to open heart surgery during the high-risk PCI procedure and no in-hospital mortality.
Time frame: Clinical success is measured during the procedure. Procedure time varies by patient and is measured from 1st vascular puncture for sheath insertion to vascular closure post sheath removal. Mean procedure time was 116.0 minutes (70.0 min, 148.0 max).
