Cyclic GMP Release by Acute Enhanced External Counterpulsation [PDF]
American Journal of Hypertension, 2006 Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a noninvasive, pneumatic technique that provides favorable effects in patients with coronary artery disease and heart failure. The mechanisms by which EECP exerts its beneficial effects remain poorly understood. Cyclic GMP (cGMP) regulates vascular smooth muscle tone that may improve arterial function.
