Enhanced External Counterpulsation for Management of Postacute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Associated Microvascular Angina and Fatigue: An Interventional Pilot Study. [PDF]
Cardiol Res Pract, 2023 Background. Postacute sequelae of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection (PASC) are a novel clinical syndrome characterized in part by endothelial dysfunction. Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) produces pulsatile shear stress, which has been associated with improvements in systemic endothelial function. Objective. To explore the effects of EECP on symptom burden,

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2007 Between 25,000 and 75,000 new cases of angina refractory to maximal medical therapy and standard coronary revascularization procedures are diagnosed each year. In addition, heart failure also places an enormous burden on the U.S. health care system, with

Enhanced external counterpulsation: Mechanisms of action and clinical applications
Acta Cardiologica, 2010 Symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure (HF), either of ischaemic or non-ischemic aetiology, are common medical problems. Despite optimal medical treatment and improved revascularisation techniques, a significant number of patients ...

Predictors of treatment benefits after enhanced external counterpulsation in patients with refractory angina pectoris. [PDF]
Clin Cardiol, 2021 Abstract Background Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a noninvasive treatment that can decrease limiting symptoms in patients with refractory angina pectoris (RAP). Identifying responders to EECP is important as EECP is not widely available and relatively time intensive.

An update on enhanced external counterpulsation [PDF]
Clinical Cardiology, 2005 The development of advanced revascularization techniques has resulted in the growth of a subset of patients with coronary artery disease who are nonrevascularizable and are considered to have refractory angina. Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) has been developed for the management of these patients with chronic, refractory disease.
