ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
The purpose of this study is to investigate the early and late outcomes of axillary intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation as a bridge to heart transplantation, comparing the grafted technique with the percutaneous technique.METHODS:
Between July 2009 and January 2020, 163 patients underwent an axillary IABP insertion as a bridge to heart transplantation. Among them, 97 patients underwent axillary IABP implantation through a graft sutured onto the axillary artery (Group A) and 66 patients underwent percutaneously (Group B). Propensity matching identified 53 matched pairs for analysis (C-statistics 0.741). The primary outcomes of interest included IABP-related complications, success rate of a bridge to transplantation, in-hospital mortality, and late survival.RESULTS:
In the propensity-score matched cohort, there were no significant differences in the baseline characteristics between the two groups. The operation time was significantly longer in Group A than in Group B (141.5 ± 38.3 min vs 42.7 ± 19.3 min, p < 0.01). The complication rates including stroke, re-exploration for bleeding, and aortic event were not significantly different between Group A and B. However, Group A required more transfusion and re-exploration for bleeding. The success rate of a bridge to transplantation was similar between Group A (47/53, 88.7%) and Group B (47/53, 88.7%). There were no significant differences in in-hospital mortality and late survival between two groups.CONCLUSION:
In the propensity score matching analysis, there were not any significant differences between the two groups in IABP-related complications, in-hospital mortality, and late survival. The percutaneous technique provided a shorter operation time and less requirement of transfusion and re-exploration for bleeding compared to the grafted technique. The percutaneous technique might be favorable when feasible.Palavras-chave
