CARDSUP - SWISS Circulatory Support Registry

Clinical Outcomes in Patients in Need of a Non-permanent Extracorporeal Cardiocirculatory Support System (Peripheral Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) or Axial Flow Pump IMPELLA)

The project's main goal is to collect baseline clinical and procedural data as well as to assess clinical outcomes for all patients undergoing ECMO or Impella implantation at all included sites. All patients undergoing ECMO and/or IMPELLA implantation will be prospectively registered. Device use is according to the decision of the treating physician and independent of this registry.

This prospective data collection is made up of an all-comers design, including all eligible consecutive patients receiving an Impella (2.5, 5, CP, or RP) or VA-ECMO device via femoral access who gave their consent (or, if not possible, their relative).
