This is a registry study that gathers information from patients who have been treated with the Impella RP Flex, a mechanical device that helps support the right side of the heart when it is not pumping well on its own. Researchers are collecting this data to better understand how the device performs and helps patients in everyday life, rather than just in controlled clinical trial settings. This observational approach allows doctors to learn from real-world patient experiences.
Right heart dysfunction is a serious condition that can be difficult to treat, and this registry was created to track how well this heart pump device actually works for patients over time. By gathering real-world data, doctors can improve their understanding of which patients benefit most and how to better support people with failing right heart function.
As a participant, you would allow researchers to collect and review information about your experience with the heart pump device — including how you're doing physically and any outcomes related to your treatment. This is primarily an observational study, meaning researchers are following your progress and gathering data rather than asking you to do anything new or experimental beyond your regular medical care. Your medical records and follow-up visits with your doctors will provide the information needed for this registry.
