Contemporary Management of Advance Heart Failure
Where we have come from: Rematch 2001
• Randomized comparison between Thoratec XVE and medical management in end-stage heart failure
• Cohort
• NYHA class IV despite 90 days of OMM,
• LVEF <25%,
• Peak VO2 <12,
• Or Inotrope, IABP dependence
Where we have come from: Rematch 2001
• Significant survival benefit
with XVE compared to OMM
• One year survival:
• 52% with XVE LVAD
• 25% with medical therapy

Main Outcomes of MOMENTUM 3 at 2 Years
Composite of survival free of disabling stroke or
reoperation to replace or remove a malfunctioning device
Superiority of HeartMate 3 over HeartMate II LVAD was driven by significant reduction in Hemocompatibility
Related Adverse Events (HRAEs), specifically: pump thrombosis, strokes, bleeding, including GI bleeding

What is solution to HM3 paradox?
• Industry
• Primary care
• Cardiologists
• EP cardiologists and Interventional Cardiologists
• Cardiac Surgeons
We can be the solution !!!
• Estimated incidence of heart failure for adults in US : 6.5 million patients
• 60, 000 ACC/AHA stage D heart failure
• Heartmate 3 implant rates are flat

Peripheral MCS: the Left Side of the Equation
Impella 5.5
• Catheter-based microaxial pump
• Can be implanted peripherally through axillary artery side graft
• Advanced into the left ventricle with inflow positioned in the LV
cavity and the outflow positioned in the proximal aorta
• Pump flows of >5 lpm
• Compared with prior generation impella devices it is easier to
position within the LV cavity, holds its position better, and rates or
serious hemolysis are substantially reduced
Peripheral MCS: the Right Side of the Equation
Dual lumen cannulas with extracorporeal circuit
• Percutaneously inserted through right internal
jugular or one of the subclavian veins
• Device inflow situated in the right atrium and device
outflow position in the pulmonary artery
• Oxygenator can be included within circuit for gas
exchange support
Contemporary Snapshot of Pre-transplant Support at a Single Center
Pre-transplant support at Duke University Medical Center over one year from 4/1/2022 to 3/31/2023
• 139 Transplants total

ECMO 8 5.8
Peripheral BiVAD Bridge to Transplant: One Patient’s Story
• 25 YO M with prior OHT 2021 presented to outside
institution in profound cardiogenic shock
• Presumptive viral myocarditis
• Cannulated for VA-ECMO + right axillary impella cp
• Transferred to DUMC for consideration of OHT after ~2
weeks on VA-ECMO support and no improvement in
allograft function
• Following arrival at DUMC had clinical deterioration
related to pneumonia requiring intubation and AKI
requiring CRRT
• Transitioned from ECMO to peripheral BiVAD support
with left axillary Impella 5.5 and Protek Duo plus
oxygenator
• Intensive medical management and rehabilitation
while on peripheral BiVAD support
• Tracheostomy and slow vent wean + removal
of oxygenator from RVAD circuit
• Renal replacement therapy
• PT/OT/Mobilization
• Once felt to be suitable from a medical and
conditioning standpoint, he was activated for heart
and kidney transplantation (status 2)
• After 61 days of peripheral BiVAD support
underwent successful heart and kidney
transplantation
Peripheral BiVAD Bridge to Transplant: One Patient’s Story
Evolving Technology for Cardiac Allograft Preservation
LV vent
PA drainage cannula
Pacing wires
Drain to pump
From pump Root Vent
Access ports for
labs draws and med
administration
Transmedics Organ Care System
• Transportable unit that places the
donor heart in series with a pump and
oxygenator with circulation of
oxygenated normothermic donor
blood
• Minimal medicine and substrate
additives
• FDA approved for BD donors 2021 and
DCD donors 2022
Conclusions
• The current durable LVAD Heartmate 3 represents a marked
improvement compared to prior durable LVAD devices, with improved
long term-survival and complication profile
• Improving technology in temporary mechanical support and cardiac
allograft preservation has allowed heart transplantation to be
extended to more end-stage heart failure patients
• Heart transplantation continues provide the best outlook to end-
stage heart failure patients, with excellent long-term survival and
quality of life outcomes
Thank you!

  • 19. Peripheral MCS: the Left Side of the Equation Impella 5.5 • Catheter-based microaxial pump • Can be implanted peripherally through axillary artery side graft • Advanced into the left ventricle with inflow positioned in the LV cavity and the outflow positioned in the proximal aorta • Pump flows of >5 lpm • Compared with prior generation impella devices it is easier to position within the LV cavity, holds its position better, and rates or serious hemolysis are substantially reduced
  • 20. Peripheral MCS: the Right Side of the Equation Dual lumen cannulas with extracorporeal circuit • Percutaneously inserted through right internal jugular or one of the subclavian veins • Device inflow situated in the right atrium and device outflow position in the pulmonary artery • Oxygenator can be included within circuit for gas exchange support

  • 25. Conclusions • The current durable LVAD Heartmate 3 represents a marked improvement compared to prior durable LVAD devices, with improved long term-survival and complication profile • Improving technology in temporary mechanical support and cardiac allograft preservation has allowed heart transplantation to be extended to more end-stage heart failure patients • Heart transplantation continues provide the best outlook to end- stage heart failure patients, with excellent long-term survival and quality of life outcomes

Editor's Notes

  1. Note: remember that MOM3 was a trial – enrolling both bridge and DT patients, to reflect the real-world. Enrollment was approx. 60% DT MOM3 2-yr outcomes: primary composite endpoint Overall survival at 2 years
  2. Note: remember that MOM3 was a trial – enrolling both bridge and DT patients, to reflect the real-world. Enrollment was approx. 60% DT MOM3 2-yr outcomes: primary composite endpoint Overall survival at 2 years
  3. In the first ever report of 5-yr outcomes for an LVAD trial: Overall survival at 5 yrs: HM3 – 58.4%; a median survival for HM3 that easily exceeds 5 years.
  4. The improved survival for HM3 was shown to be due to a significant reduction in hemocompatibility-related mortality, resulting from reduced thrombosis, stroke, and bleeding events. Heart failure was the leading cause of death in HM3, followed by infection. The risk of death due to these causes were similar between treatment groups.
