Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
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.
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.
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).

EXPERIMENTALVortex - First in Human Study to Evaluate the Feasibility, Safety, Clinical and Technical Success of the Vortex Temporary Percutaneous, Transvalvular Circulatory Support System (Vortex System)
Interventions
The Vortex System is intended to provide temporary circulatory support in subjects undergoing elective high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (HR-PCI).
Eligibility Criteria
You may not qualify if:
- IC1. Subject provides signed informed consent. IC2. Subject is ≥ 18 years and \< 90 years of age.
- IC3 Subject is indicated for NON-emergent PCI of at least one de novo or restenotic lesion in a native coronary vessel or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and has left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 50% with the following:
- Unprotected left main -OR-
- Last remaining vessel -OR-
- Three vessel disease (≥ 50% diameter stenoses by visual estimate or total occlusion)
- EC1. Subject has had ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) within 24 hours.
- EC2. Subject has had pre-procedure cardiac arrest requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) within 24 hours of enrollment.
- EC3. Subject is in shock, defined as follows:
- Cardiac index (CI) \< 2.2 L/min/m2 and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) \> 15 mmHg -AND-
- Hypotension (systolic blood pressure \< 90 mmHg for \> 30 minutes) -OR-
- Need for supportive measures (i.e., inotropes or mechanical support) to maintain systolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg and end organ hypoperfusion (cool extremities or urine \< 30 mL/hour and a heart rate \> 60 beats per minute) EC4. Subject has left ventricular mural thrombus. EC5. Subject has a prosthetic aortic valve. EC6. Subject has pericarditis or constrictive heart disease (constrictive pericarditis or restrictive cardiomyopathy).
- EC7. Subject has moderate or greater aortic valve stenosis or moderate or greater aortic valve insufficiency (by echocardiographic assessment, graded as ≥ 2+).
- EC8. Subject has abnormalities of the aorta that preclude safe delivery of the device, including severe calcification, tortuosity, aneurysm, or prior surgery.
- EC9. Subject has peripheral vessel disease (PVD) preventing passage of the device (e.g., calcification, small caliber) or tortuosity that would preclude safe placement of the 16 Fr introducer sheath.
- Note: Minimum required vessel diameter is \> 5.5 mm. EC10. Subject has advanced renal dysfunction (AKIN Stage 3). EC11. Subject has a history of liver dysfunction (Childs Class C) with elevation of liver enzymes and bilirubin \> 3× upper limit of normal (ULN) or international normalization ratio (INR) ≥ 2.
