There is a potential risk for unintentional interaction of the Impella motor housing with the distal stent of a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) resulting in destruction of the impeller blades. This has resulted in low flow from the damaged Impella system. Systemic embolization of the fractured impeller material is a possibility.
There was one complaint that the sidearm of the device detached during explant of a pump. When the sidearms are subjected to heat, humidity and articulation, a silicone oil contaminant that was unintentionally introduced during manufacturing at the joint between the sidearm and the hub may cause the joint to detach.
The Impella 5.5 pump experienced a heightened complaint rate for purge leaks.
