Background: The use of mechanical circulatory support devices for high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has increased over the past decade despite limited data of benefit. We sought to examine the association between intravascular microaxial left ventricular assist device (LVAD) versus intra-aortic balloon pump use in patients without cardiogenic shock (CS) undergoing PCI.
Methods And Results: This retrospective study analyzed claims data from a large, insured population who underwent PCI without CS from April 1, 2016 to July 31, 2022.

Importance: The Aspirin and Hemocompatibility Events With a Left Ventricular Assist Device in Advanced Heart Failure (ARIES-HM3) study demonstrated that aspirin may be safely eliminated from the antithrombotic regimen after HeartMate 3 (HM3 [Abbott Cardiovascular]) left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. This prespecified analysis explored whether conditions requiring aspirin (prior percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG], stroke, or peripheral vascular disease [PVD]) would influence outcomes differentially with aspirin avoidance.
Objective: To analyze aspirin avoidance on hemocompatibility-related adverse events (HRAEs) at 1 year after implant in patients with a history of CABG, PCI, stroke, or PVD.

The use of temporary left ventricular assist devices (tLVADs) for patients suffering from cardiogenic shock (CS) is becoming more common. This study examines the indications and outcomes of microaxial flow pumps (Impella, Abiomed Inc., Danvers, MA, USA) when cannulated through the axillary artery in patients with severe CS, with a particular focus on acute phase reactions and hemolytic responses.

: Patients with a HeartMate 3 (HM3) left ventricular assist device (LVAD) typically receive anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy. The HM3 has shown a marked reduction in hemocompatibility-related adverse events (HRAEs) like stroke, bleeding, and pump thrombosis. This study evaluated whether aspirin (ASA) response influences HRAE incidence and if ASA sensitivity changes over time in HM3 recipients.
