Effects of Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP) on Myocardial Perfusion

American Journal of Therapeutics, 2007
To evaluate whether enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) exerts an effect on myocardial perfusion.Eleven patients with angina were studied before and after 35 sessions of EECP treatment. Myocardial perfusion was quantified with positron emission tomography and intravenous 13N-ammonia at rest and after dipyridamole, by means of a two-compartment ...

External counterpulsation enhances neuroplasticity to promote stroke recovery

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2018
Improving tissue perfusion in peri-infarct cortex could enhance neuroplasticity and improve functional recovery after stroke.1 Treatments that enhance corticomotor function may benefit motor recovery. However, the effects of cerebral blood flow augmentation on corticomotor excitability have not been explored in humans.

Enhanced External Counterpulsation in Unrevascularizable Patients.

Current interventional cardiology reports
Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a noninvasive outpatient therapy for the treatment of chronic angina. EECP treatment produces an acute hemodynamic effect that is similar to that produced by the invasive intra-aortic balloon pump. Three sets of cuffs on the upper thigh, lower thigh, and calves of each leg are inflated with compressed air ...
