n 2024, at the TCT congress, the Impella ECP pivotal trial results were presented.
At that time, the only Impella catheter approved for High Risk PCI was the Impella CP, a device with a maximum diameter of 14 French.
The Impella ECP was designed to provide hemodynamic support during high-risk PCI, allowing for a reduction in arterial sheath access size to 9 French, as It incorporates a compressible 21 French pump.
