Maximizing the hemodynamic benefit of enhanced external counterpulsation [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, 1998
AbstractBackground: Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment for angina and exertional ischemia in patients with coronary disease.Hypothesis: It is hypothesized that the ability of EECP to enhance the recruitment or development of coronary collaterals in coronary artery disease may be determined by ...

Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic heart failure in elderly patients (2021)

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 78-93, June 2022., 2022
Heart failure results in decreased activity tolerance and repeated hospitalization, seriously affecting quality and mortality of elderly people. Due to the lack of atypical clinical manifestations and characterized symptoms, and accompanied by the coexistence of multiple diseases and geriatric syndromes, comprehensive geriatric assessment should be ...

Enhanced external counterpulsation for chronic angina pectoris [PDF]

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2008
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of death in developed and developing countries. Refractory stable angina pectoris is, in general, inadequately responsive to conventional medical therapy.Enhanced external counterpulsation is a non-invasive treatment for patients with refractory angina and involves the placing of compressible cuffs around the ...

[Retracted] Cardiac External Counterpulsation Attenuates Myocardial Injury by Regulating NRF2‐mediated Ferroptosisin and Oxidative stress Injury

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Objectives. To explore the role of the external counterpulsation (ECP) myocardial injury by controlling NRF2‐mediated ferroptosis and oxidative stress damage in acute myocardial infarction. Methods. Twenty acute myocardial infarction (AMI) participants hospitalized from January 2021 to January 2022 were enrolled. In addition, 20 healthy individuals who

Clinical Status of Cardiac Rehabilitation Manners and Models

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Cardiac rehabilitation, which combines cardiology and preventive medicine, is an important part of treatment for cardiovascular diseases. Systematically, cardiac rehabilitation, including simultaneously inhibiting endothelial injury and promoting endothelial repair, is beneficial for physical and mental recovery and reduces the risks of recurrence and ...

Feasibility of a Dielectric Elastomer Augmented Aorta

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 8, Issue 6, March 17, 2021., 2021
A dielectric‐elastomer aorta is used to augment the physiological role of the aorta in the human circulatory system. In vitro experiments show a reduction of 5.5% of the heart energy. The controlled stiffness of the dielectric‐elastomer, which is usually difficult to exploit for actuators, is perfectly matching the assistance principle.

Hemodynamics of Enhanced External Counterpulsation with Different Coronary Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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 ...

Hemodynamic impacts of entrainment of heart rate and stride rate

open access: yesArtery Research, 2012
Synchronization of heart rate and step rate has been hypothesized to create a hemodynamically favorable situation where heart motion and bodily motion are in constant harmony so that stroke volume and cardiac output enhanced and oxygen delivery to the ...
