The Method of Enhanced External Counterpulsation in Clinical Practice
Chronic non- infectious diseases represent an important medical and social problem for the healthcare system. Optimal pharmacotherapy is not always effective enough, and the use of surgical treatment methods is not possible in all patients.

Enhanced external counterpulsation in the management of patients with cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Studies over the past several decades support the hypothesis that enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) can provide long-term benefits in patients with angina secondary to chronic coronary disease. Numerous non-sham controlled trials have recently been substantiated by a multicenter, randomized trial. Although the mechanism by which this mechanical

Impact of Enhanced External Counterpulsation on Peripheral Circulation [PDF]
Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a noninvasive counterpulsation technique that reduces angina and improves exercise capacity in patients with coronary artery disease. Diastolic coronary perfusion is augmented by pneumatic compression of 3 sets of cuffs wrapped around the lower extremities.

Cardiovascular Effects of Long-Term Treatment with Enhanced External Counterpulsation in Patients with Ischemic Heart Failure: Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Open-Label Clinical Trial [PDF]
(1) Background. Although treatment with enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) in patients with ischemic chronic heart failure (CHF) is pathophysiologically justified, its long-term vascular effects remain insufficiently defined. We aimed to study the

Enhanced external counterpulsation-assisted cannulated screw fixation promoted femoral neck fracture healing: a pilot randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Background Femoral neck fractures often lead to complications such as delayed union or nonunion due to limited blood supply to the femoral head. Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a non-invasive method that improves peripheral and tissue ...

Enhanced external counterpulsation: mechanisms of action and clinical applications
Symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure (HF), either of ischaemic or nonischaemic aetiology, are common medical problems. Despite optimal medical treatment and improved revascularisation techniques, a significant number of patients are not successfully managed.Among the non-pharmacological, alternative, non-invasive treatments ...
