The main thing they measured was infarct size—that's basically the amount of permanent heart damage.

Over the past 20 years there's been the introduction of the Impella heart pump, sorry, miniaturized transvalvular heart pump, that has made it now feasible to actually test the hypothesis: can left ventricular unloading reduce infarct size?

So what this study really looked at is testing the hypothesis that mechanically unloading the heart, or preconditioning the heart, would allow for a reduction in infarct size at the time of PCI.

They are calling us for an infarct and hemorrhage.
