Ischaemic complications with intra-aortic balloon counter-pulsation: incidence and management

open access: yes, 2000
The most important limitation of the use of the intra-aortic balloon pump is the risk of vascular complications. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors and aspects of diagnosis and management that may decrease the risk of vascular morbidity ...
