a Illustration demonstrates the position of the intra-aortic balloon pump placed from the femoral artery. b Illustration demonstrates the normal position of the Impella CP LV support system. The device is implanted from the femoral artery. Impella pump can also be implanted through the axillary artery or aorta. c Illustration demonstrates the normal position of the Protek Duo in the main pulmonary artery and the Impella CP LV support system. In this illustration, we see use of two separate devices for biventricular support
