Enhanced external counterpulsation in the management of patients with cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Clinical Cardiology, 1999 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

Cardiovascular Effects of Long-Term Treatment with Enhanced External Counterpulsation in Patients with Ischemic Heart Failure: Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Open-Label Clinical Trial [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease(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: mechanisms of action and clinical applications [PDF]
Acta Cardiologica, 2010 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 ...
