Conditions

Ischemic Cardiomyopathy

Brief summary

The present study introduces a novel approach to coronary revascularization through the use of a short term minimally-invasive left ventricular assist device (LVAD) to minimize myocardial injury and eliminate low output state during the perioperative period

Interventions

DEVICEImpella 5.5 with SmartAssist Supported OPCABG

Subjects will undergo insertion of an axillary or ascending aortic Impella 5.5 with SmartAssist, followed by Impella-supported OPCABG using a sternotomy approach with shunting of the coronary arteries to achieve myocardial protection.
