The State of Assisted Circulation in the USSR [PDF]

open access: possible, 1979
Research on the artificial heart in the USSR is progressing along two lines: (1) the creation of a cardiac assist device (CAD) to serve as a partial replacement of the heart’s function or that of one of its ventricles and (2) the development of an orthotopic prosthesis for the heart (TAH).

Assisted Circulation in Treatment of Experimental Heart Failure

Archives of Surgery, 1965
WITH THE development of low-priming volume oxygenators, assisted circulation has become available for emergency use. It has been suggested as treatment for a number of conditions including septicemic shock, 1 cardiac arrest, 2,3 pulmonary insufficiency, 4 and congestive heart failure.

Ventricular assist devices for the failing univentricular circulation

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2017
Improved survival following single ventricle palliation has led to a large population of patients with a univentricular circulation, many of whom develop heart failure. Increasing experience with ventricular assist devices (VAD) in children has paved the way for VAD support in those with failing univentricular circulation.

Horizons in Assisted Circulation III

1989
In 1985, the Working Group on Mechanical Circulatory Support of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) reconfirmed that cardiac transplantation, or a potential mechanical analog, continues to be the most effective procedure for treating end-stage heart disease.

Prospects for the use of assisted circulation in cases of poisoning

Resuscitation, 1982
Abstract The results of treatment of acute heart failure by means of intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABC) in ten patients with overdosage of tranquilizers or barbiturates are analysed in this paper. The afterload is decreased by IABC and the cardiac muscle is able to maintain a higher arterial pressure which in its turn permits the ...

The Role of Assisted Circulation in Cardiac Resuscitation

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1966
Heart-lung machines now used for cardiac surgery should be considered for use as an extended form of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in selected patients. Of eight patients in whom cardiac arrest had proved refractory to open- or closed-heart cardiac massage, all but one were resuscitated and survived hours to days. One patient recovered completely.

Effect of the assisted circulation on myocardial ultrastructure

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1976
The effect of a method of assisted circulation (counterpulsation) on the ultrastructure of the myocardium was studied in dogs. Electron microscopy revealed a sharp increase in the glycogen content in the heart muscle cells, mitochondria with a highly osmophilic, finely granular matrix, and high pinocytotic activity of the capillary endothelial cells ...

Counterpulsation: Stagnation or Evolution in Assisted Circulation? [PDF]

open access: possible, 1989
By definition, counterpulsation is a method for assisting the heart in series according to the ECG. The goal is to unload the ventricles in the ejection phase and to increase the myocardial blood supply in the filling phase of the heart. Due to the fact that counterpulsation works in series with the natural heart, the devices are up to 25% effective ...
