Aortic balloon entrapment complicating intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation

open access: yes, 1999
Short-term balloon counterpulsation may be complicated by aortic balloon entrapment. We report a patient in whom video-coronary surgery was performed using beating heart anastomosis.

Percutaneous treatment of acute iliac artery injury after intraaortic balloon counterpulsation

open access: yes, 1996
We report on a novel approach to correcting iliac artery occlusions caused by aortic counterpulsation. Two patients who had leg ischemia after retrieval of an intraaortic balloon pump underwent angiograms that showed occlusion of the right external iliac

Intraaortic balloon counterpulsation: A retrospective clinical audit at a major Australian cardiothoracic tertiary referral hospital - 1995 to 2001

open access: yes, 2003
Intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IABC) is an established treatment for the support of a failing heart. In the setting of cardiac failure, incidence of IABC utilisation can be grouped into five categories: post bypass; cardiogenic shock; acute ...

Intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation therapy

open access: yes, 2018
Percutaneous coronary intervention in the presence of impaired left ventricular function is associated with significant mortality and morbidity. Intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation simultaneously increases coronary blood flow, by augmenting the ...

COUNTERPULSATION - HISTORICAL BACKGROUND, TECHNICAL IMPROVEMENTS, HEMODYNAMIC AND METABOLIC EFFECTS

open access: yes, 1994
The intraaortic balloon counterpulsation is performed today on the same principles that were described in its first experimental use in 1962. Experimental studies have shown significant increase of the mean aortic diastolic pressure, the diastolic ...

Preclinical Studies of Abdominal Counterpulsation in CPR

open access: yes, 1984
Abdominal counterpulsation added to standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation improves blood flow in animal models when compared to chest compressions alone. Similar effects can be demonstrated in analog and digital computer models of the circulation.

Intra Aortic Balloon Counterpulsation from the Perspektive of Nurse in the Intensive Care Unit of Cardiac Surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The thesis is focused on the intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) from the perspective of nurses in the cardiac intensive care. It consists of two parts. Theoretical and empirical.
