2 User Manual
During transport, the Automated Impella® Controller (AIC) may be exposed to stronger electromagnetic disturbance than during in-hospital use. Strong electromagnetic disturbance may cause the Automated Impella Controller to display soft button menu selections that were not selected by the user. Operators should be aware that, under these conditions, the operating parameters are not affected. No user intervention is required. Monitor Impella Catheter flow and patient hemodynamics to confirm normal operation. The condition will resolve itself once the Automated Impella Controller is no longer exposed to the disturbance.
NOTE: The EMC tables in the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) section and other guidelines that are included in this manual provide information to the customer or user that is essential in determining the suitability of the equipment or system for the electromagnetic environment of use, and in managing the electromagnetic environment of use permit the equipment or system to perform to its intended use without disturbing other equipment and systems or non-medical electrical equipment. For the electromagnetic testing shown in tables in the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) section, the AIC Essential Performance was specified as: during the entire testing period, the AIC continues to provide support to the patient.

3Transport with the Automated Impella® Controller
PURPOSE OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions are designed for healthcare professionals to facilitate transport of patients supported with the Automated Impella Controller from one medical facility to another. This manual contains clinical and technical information to guide healthcare professionals before, during, and after transport.
INDICATION AND SAFETY INFORMATION - LEFT-SIDED SUPPORTProtected PCI
The Impella 2.5® and Impella CP® Systems are temporary (≤ 6 hours) ventricular support devices indicated for use during high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) performed in elective or urgent, hemodynamically stable patients with severe coronary artery disease and depressed left ventricular ejection fraction, when a heart team, including a cardiac surgeon, has determined high-risk PCI is the appropriate therapeutic option. Use of the Impella 2.5 and Impella CP Systems in these patients may prevent hemodynamic instability, which can result from repeat episodes of reversible myocardial ischemia that occur during planned temporary coronary occlusions and may reduce peri- and post-procedural adverse events.
Cardiogenic Shock
The Impella 2.5, Impella CP, Impella 5.0®, and Impella LD® Catheters, in conjunction with the Automated Impella Controller (collectively, “Impella System Therapy”), are temporary ventricular support devices intended for short term use (≤ 4 days for the Impella 2.5 and Impella CP, and ≤ 6 days for the Impella 5.0, and Impella LD) and indicated for the treatment of ongoing cardiogenic shock that occurs immediately (< 48 hours) following acute myocardial infarction or open heart surgery as a result of isolated left ventricular failure that is not responsive to optimal medical management and conventional treatment measures (including volume loading and use of pressors and inotropes, with or without IABP). The intent of Impella System Therapy is to reduce ventricular work and to provide the circulatory support necessary to allow heart recovery and early assessment of residual myocardial function.

6 User Manual
ABOUT THE IMPELLA® HEART PUMP
The Impella 2.5, Impella CP, Impella 5.0 Impella LD are intravascular microaxial blood pumps that support a patient’s circulatory system. The Impella heart pump is inserted through the femoral or axillary artery into the left ventricle or, in the case of the LD, surgically via the ascending aorta. When properly positioned, the Impella delivers blood from the inlet area, which sits inside the left ventricle, through the cannula, to the outlet opening in the ascending aorta. Users monitor the correct positioning and functioning of the Impella on the display screen of the Automated Impella Controller.The Impella RP® is an intravascular microaxial blood pump that support a patient’s pulmonary circulation. It pushes blood from the IVC into the pulmonary artery, bypassing the right ventricle.
PATIENT TRANSPORT WITH THE IMPELLA® SYSTEM
The Automated Impella Controller and Impella Catheters have been cleared by the FDA for hospital-to-hospital transport via ambulance, helicopter, or fixed-wing aircraft. To use the system during transport you must understand and follow the Impella instructions for use. The transport team should include one person fully trained in the use of the Automated Impella Controller and Impella Catheter. Abiomed encourages the establishment of a relationship between outlying centers (SPOKE facilities) and tertiary-care centers (HUB facilities). Criteria for accepting patients into a program should be determined between hospitals in advance of the need for a transfer.
7Transport with the Automated Impella® Controller
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
1. Planning is critical to success. Abiomed representatives can help with planning for transport. They can be contacted 24 hours a day at 1-800-422-8666.
2. Abiomed recommends that air transport carriers follow the guidance FAA Advisory Circular AC No: 91-21.1B.
3. The Automated Impella® Controller should be fully charged prior to transport. Keep the controller connected to AC power (or an AC inverter) whenever possible. Prior to connecting the Impella Automated Controller to the transport vehicle’s inverter or power source, ensure that the aircraft or ambulance is up and running first.
4. Do not stress the connector cable from the controller to the Impella Catheter. Such tension could move the catheter out of correct position and compromise patient circulatory support.
5. Carefully monitor purge pressures during changes in altitude.6. The controller should be positioned to allow easy access to the
display screen and soft buttons to view alarms and make any necessary changes.
7. Maintain ACTs between 160 and 180 or at the level recommended by the physician responsible for the patient.
8. If possible, place the controller and the red Impella plug at the level of the patient’s heart during transport.
9. Decrease the flow rate to P2 if CPR is necessary.10. For additional transport training, please visit:
www.abiomedtraining.com
Battery Operation
The Automated Impella Controller is designed to operate for at least 60 minutes on battery power. Transport teams should take this into consideration when planning the transport. If the total transport time is expected to include more than 60 minutes during which the system will be disconnected from AC power, arrangements should be made to use a vehicle with a built-in DC to AC power inverter.
8 User Manual
TRANSPORT WITH THE AUTOMATED IMPELLA CONTROLLER
1. Unplug the Automated Impella Controller from AC power.2. Rotate the T-knobs to unlock the controller from the cart.3. Lift the controller off the cart using the blue handle. 4. Place the controller on a flat surface (seat, bench, shelf, or stretcher) or
hang the controller on the end of the stretcher using the bed mount.5. Remove the purge solution from the IV pole on the cart and place it on the
IV pole of the stretcher or transport vehicle.6. Secure the controller. If the controller is left unsecured, it can become a
dangerous projectile inside the transport vehicle or aircraft.
SECURING THE AUTOMATED IMPELLA CONTROLLER
Options for securing the Impella System during transport will vary by transport provider. Transport providers should take into consideration their particular vehicle, stretcher design, and accessory mounting options when planning to transport a patient supported by the Impella System. 1. The Automated Impella Controller has a bed mount on the back of the
housing that may be used to hang the controller on the stretcher while the patient is transported inside the hospital.
2. Straps may be used to secure the Automated Impella Controller to a flat surface in the transport vehicle.
3. The bed mount may be used as a loop through which to secure the straps.
