| Zusammenfassung: | Acute kidney injury is one of the most frequent and prognostically relevant complications in cardiogenic shock. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential effect of the Impella® pump on hemodynamics and renal organ perfusion in patients with myocardial infarction complicating cardiogenic shock. Between January 2020 and February 2022 patients with infarct-related cardiogenic shock supported with the Impella® pump were included in this single-center prospective short-term study. Changes in hemodynamics on different levels of Impella® support were documented with invasive pulmonal arterial catheter. As far as renal function is concerned, renal perfusion was assessed by determining the renal resistive index (RRI) using Doppler sonography. A total of 50 patients were included in the analysis. The increase in the Impella® output by a mean of 1.0 L/min improved the cardiac index (2.7 ± 0.86 to 3.3 ± 1.1 p < 0.001) and increased central venous oxygen saturation (62.6 ± 11.8% to 67.4 ± 10.5% p < 0.001). On the other side, the systemic vascular resistance (1035 ± 514 N·s/m5 to 902 ± 371 N·s/m5 p = 0.012) and the RRI were significantly reduced (0.736 ± 0.07 to 0.62 ± 0.07 p < 0.001). Furthermore, in the overall cohort, a baseline RRI ≥ 0.8 was associated with a higher frequency of renal replacement therapy (71% vs. 39% p = 0.04), whereas the consequent reduction of the RRI below 0.7 during Impella® support improved the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) during hospital stay (15 ± 3 days; 53 ± 16 mL/min to 83 ± 16 mL/min p = 0.04). Impella® support in patients with cardiogenic shock seems to improve hemodynamics and renal organ perfusion. The RRI, a well-known parameter for the early detection of acute kidney injury, can be directly influenced by the Impella flow rate. Thus, a targeted control of the RRI by the Impella® pump could mediate renal organ protection. |
