BOOST
If you select
BOOST
, the Automated Impella
®
Controller maximizes the Impella
®
Catheter flow
for 5 minutes. At the end of 5 minutes, the controller returns to the AUTO setting (or P-8 if
previously running in P-level mode).
P-LEVEL
In
P-LEVEL
mode you can select one of nine P-levels (P-0 to P-8) for the Impella
®
Catheter (see
Table 5.3 for the Impella
®
2.5 and Table 5.4 for the Impella CP
®
). Select the lowest P-level (P-2
or higher) that will enable you to achieve the flow rate necessary for patient support.
