Prevalence of bleeding events in real-world Japanese registry for Percutaneous Ventricular Assist Device.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeBleeding complication is a critical risk factor for outcomes of acute heart failure patients requiring mechanical circulatory support (MCS), including percutaneous catheter-type heart pumps (Impella). The Japanese registry for Percutaneous Ventricular Assist Device (J-PVAD) is an ongoing, large-scale, real-world registry to characterize Japanese patients requiring Impella. Here we analyzed bleeding complication profiles in patients who received Impella.
methodsAll consecutive Japanese patients who received Impella from October 2017 to January 2020 were enrolled. The 30-day survival and bleeding complications were analyzed.
resultsA total of 1344 patients were included: 653 patients received Impella alone, 685 patients received a combination of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and Impella (ECPELLA), and 6 patients had failed Impella delivery. Overall 30-day survival was 67.0%, with Impella alone at 81.9% and ECPELLA at 52.7%. Overall bleeding/hematoma adverse events with a relation or not-excluded relation to Impella was 6.92%. Among them, the rates of hematoma and bleeding from medical device access sites were 1.41% and 4.09%, respectively. There was no difference between etiologies for these events.
conclusionThis study represents the first 3-year survival and the safety profile focused on bleeding adverse events from the J-PVAD registry. The results show that the real-world frequency of bleeding adverse events for patients who received Impella was an expected range from previous reports, and future real-world studies should aim to expand this data set to improve outcomes and adverse events.
