Intra-aortic Balloon Pump [PDF]
This chapter describes the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), which is the single most widely used mechanical circulatory assist device available today. Counterpulsation refers to balloon inflation in diastole and deflation in early systole: this results in increased coronary blood flow, left ventricular afterload reduction, and increased end-organ ...

Although the sheath‐to‐femoral artery ratio is a recognized risk factor in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), its role across a broader range of femoral procedures is less well defined.
