First-Line Support by Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump in Non-Ischaemic Cardiogenic Shock in the Era of Modern Ventricular Assist Devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives: Little is known about circulatory support in cardiogenic shock (CS) from other causes than the acute coronary syndrome or after cardiotomy. We evaluated the effects of first-line intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support in this subpopulation ...

Muscular counterpulsation: preliminary results of a non-invasive alternative to intra-aortic balloon pump [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives: IABP is the most widely used form of temporary cardiac assist and its benefits are well established. We designed an animal study to evaluate a device based on muscular counterpulsation (MCP) that should reproduce the same hemodynamic effects ...

Pediatric vascular compression of the esophagus: Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe as a complement to imaging and endoscopy

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Vascular anomalies can cause extrinsic esophageal compression, leading to dysphagia or feeding difficulties in children. Diagnosis typically relies on imaging and endoscopy, which may under‐ or overestimate functional narrowing. Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP) provides luminal parameters in real‐time, but its ...

Pre‐operative anaemia, red blood cell transfusion and mortality after cardiac surgery: a Netherlands Heart Registration mediation analysis

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Pre‐operative anaemia is an established risk factor for mortality after cardiac surgery. The extent to which this risk is mediated by complications related to red blood cell transfusion remains uncertain, particularly across different age groups.
