Single arterial access for Ecpella and jugular venous cannulation provides full mobility on a status 1 heart transplant recipient.

Concomitant treatment with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and Impella may improve outcomes in patients with cardiogenic shock compared with VA-ECMO alone. Here, we explain a new method to introduce Impella and ECMO through the same arterial access site and jugular venous cannulation to accomplish a mobile patient concept.
