Impella RP Flex™ with SmartAssist®

Impella RP Flex with SmartAssist unloads the right ventricle with continuous hemodynamic support. Equipped with dual-sensor technology to assist with pump management, Impella RP Flex with SmartAssist pumps blood from the superior vena cava, superior atrial junction or right atrium (IJ insertion) or inferior vena cava (femoral insertion) to the pulmonary artery. Impella RP Flex with SmartAssist allows for maximum systolic flow of up to 4.0 L/min, and is indicated for temporary RV support (up to 14 days) in adult or pediatric patients with a body surface area ≥1.5 m² who develop acute RHF or decompensation for less than 48 hours following LV assist device implantation, myocardial infarction, heart transplant, or open-heart surgery, without the presence of profound shock, end organ failure, or acute neurologic injury.
