Rogers, M.D. Associate Professor of Medicine Senior Vice Chief for Clinical Affairs, Division of Cardiology Medical Director, Cardiac Transplant and Mechanical Circulatory Support Program Duke University NTERMACS Patient Profiles Rogers Reclassification Nearly dead Actively dying Working toward death Probable shock.

Range of DT Approval and CMS Coverage Approved NTERMACS 6: Exertion limited NTERMACS 5: Exertion intolerant NTERMACS 4: Resting symptoms on oral therapy Not Broadly Generally Accepted Accepted Ambulatory Class B and V Less Sick Sick Patients with advanced cardiogenic shock 1. Hypotension 2. Elevated filling pressures 3. Reduced organ perfusion and function 4. Acidosis NTERMACS 1-3: notrope-dependent Slide Concept: David Farrar, PhD

2 Clinical Trial Data Supporting Any Approach for Patients with Advanced Cardiogenic Shock: A Comprehensive Review Contemporary Outcomes in Cardiogenic Shock: Results of the ABP-Shock Trial On the basis of the findings of ABP-SHOCK trial, we must move forward with the understanding that a cardiovascular condition with a 40% mortality at 30 days remains unacceptable. N Engl J Med 2012;367: N Engl J Med 2012;367: Challenges with MCS for Cardiogenic Shock: nterposing Non-Uniform Patient Characteristics Rapidity of implementation Ability to provide bi-ventricular support Ability to provide ventilatory support Sufficiency of hemodynamic support Unique challenge of RV support Bridge to decision solution (low cost/high efficacy) Limited alternatives

3 Proposed Management Algorithm for Patients in Cardiogenic Shock Rogers JG, Milano CA, The role for mechanical support in cardiogenic shock, AHA Publication, 2009 Novel Mechanical Approaches to Treat Acute Cardiogenic Shock Need controlled clinical trials of novel mechanical circulatory assist devices for acute heart failure mpella 5.0 in Post-Cardiotomy Shock Results of the Recover 1 Registry 16 patients Mean duration of support=3.7±2.9 days Mean flow=4 l/min Survival (1 death, 1 stroke) 30-day=94% 180-day=81% 360- day=75% J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2013;145:548-54

4 TandemHeart in Cardiogenic Shock: TH Experience 118 patients with refractory cardiogenic shock Nearly 50% had just received or were receiving CPR Mean support duration=5.8 days J Am Coll Cardiol 2011;57: Mechanically Assisted Circulation: Contemporary Devices and Outcomes Bridge to Transplant Bridge to Transplant Destination Therapy Ann Thorac Surg 2011;92: Circulation 2012;125: Circ Heart Failure 2012;5: MN WALK V V NYHA CLASS KCCQ J Am Coll Cardiol 2010; 55: Characteristics of Durable VAD-Treated Patients in Clinical Trials HeartMate VE BTT (2001; n=280) REMATCH (2001;N=129) NTrEPD (2007;n=55) HM BTT + CAP (2009; n=281) HM DT (2009; n=200) Age EF Na BUN Cr Alb PCWP C % notropes % ABP Hemodynamic parameters obtained on optimal medical therapy

5 Who is Receiving MCS in the NTERMACS Registry? J Heart Lung Transplant 2013; 32: Patient Outcomes Stratified by NTERMACS Profile J Heart Lung Transplant 2013; 32: mportance of RV Function on VAD Outcomes Post-VAD RV failure contributes to: Hepatic congestion Renal failure Bleeding Prolonged mechanical ventilation MSOF Prolonged LOS Parameter Desirable Value RVSW [(mpa-mcvp) x SV/BSA] > 300 mmhg ml/m 2 J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2010;139: CVP <15 mmhg CVP:PCWP Ratio < 0.63 Presence of tricuspid regurgitation PVR and TPG Minimal to moderate PVR <4 Woods Units and TPG <15 mmhg RV size Need for preoperative ventilator support RVEDV <200 ml and RVESV <177 ml None J Heart Lung Transplant 2010: (4 Suppl):S1-39.
