I am reviewing a case in which the patient on an Impella. A different surgeon places a perfusion cannula in the femoral artery and connected the Impella. I'm not sure what code should be reported for the placement of the cannula. I think 33952 but that is for ECMO. Any thoughts or suggestions is appreciated.

Thank you,
