Rationale and design of the randomized ‘early ventricular assist device’—Trial (VAD‐DZHK3)
The VAD‐DZHK3 trial is a randomised controlled study evaluating whether elective LVAD implantation improves outcomes in end‐stage heart failure (HF) patients listed for heart transplantation compared with delayed implantation after clinical deterioration.

Influence of intraaortic balloon pump counterpulsation on transesophageal echocardiography derived determinants of diastolic function. [PDF]
Intraaortic balloon pump counterpulsation (IABP) is often used in patients with acute coronary syndrome for its favourable effects on left ventricular (LV) systolic function and coronary perfusion.

ECG-triggered muscular counterpulsation for treatment of low cardiac output
BACKGROUND: Skeletal muscular counterpulsation (MCP) has been used as a new noninvasive technique for treatment of low cardiac output. The MCP method is based on ECG-triggered skeletal muscle stimulation.

ABSTRACT Background Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a poorly understood arrhythmia that is one of the main mechanisms of sudden cardiac death in patients with structural heart disease (SHD). Fascicular and Purkinje tissue (FPT) has been implicated in VF.

Abstract Although an acute bout of peristaltic pulse external pneumatic compression (EPC) of the lower extremities can improve vascular function, its effect on arterial stiffness remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the acute effect of lower‐limb peristaltic pulse EPC on segmental arterial stiffness.

Hemodynamics of Enhanced External Counterpulsation with Different Coronary Stenosis
Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is able to treat myocardial ischemia, which is usually caused by coronary artery stenosis. However, the underlying mechanisms regarding why this technique is effective in treating myocardial ischemia remains ...
