OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Intra-aortic balloon pumps are commonly used as circulatory support in patients with critically reduced cardiac function. The goal of this study is to estimate the incidence of mesenteric ischemia as an understudied vascular complication and to describe the clinical and radiographic characteristics of patients experiencing this complication. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We will be conducting a retrospective analysis of the electronic medical records of all patients who underwent intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) placement between October 2020 and April 2023 at our academic medical center to identify the incidence of mesenteric ischemia. We will describe the clinical course of these patients and characterize them based on demographic features and risk factors for vascular complications including medical comorbidities. Finally, we will assess available chest x-ray and thoracoabdominal CT imaging for adequacy of balloon tip positioning, concordance between balloon size and aortic dimensions, and compromise of any visceral arteries in patients who experienced mesenteric ischemia vs. those who did not. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We anticipate approximately 150 patients to have recieved IABPs over this period with at least 4 known cases of mesenteric ischemia. We will describe the clinical presentation of these cases and their often fatal outcomes. We expect several known risk factors will be present in these patients, including history of peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, or smoking history. On chest x-ray, we predict balloon tip positioning to be suboptimal (defined as >5cm below the aortic arch) in many patients, both those with mesenteric ischemia and those without, but a greater discordance on CT imaging between balloon size and aortic dimensions with greater evidence of visceral compromise in patients with mesenteric ischemia compared to those without. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Mesenteric ischemia is a serious and poorly studied complication of intra-aortic balloon pumps. Understanding the hospital course, clinical characteristics, and radiographic features present in these patients may guide clinicians in the early recognition and management of this potentially fatal complication.
