Abstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) use for circulatory support in cardiogenic shock results in increased left ventricular (LV) afterload. The use of concomitant Impella or intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP)..
Read MoreAbstract The development of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) has been rapid, and its use worldwide in patients with cardiogenic shock is increasingly widespread. However, current statistical data and clinical research..
Read MoreAbstract Post-infarct ventricular septal defect (PIVSD) is a rare, life-threatening complication following acute myocardial infarction (MI), associated with high overall mortality. Interventions include medical management, percutaneous closure, and/or surgical closure...
Read MoreAbstract Intraaortic balloon pump counterpulsation is the most common form of mechanical circulatory support used in patients with myocardial ischemia and cardiogenic shock. The physiologic principles of counterpulsation include diastolic..
Read MoreAbstract Objective Our aim was to analyse whether prophylactic preoperative intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) improves outcomes in hemodynamically stable patients with low (LVEF ≤30%) undergoing elective (CABG) using (CPB). Secondary aim was to..
Read MoreAbstract With the implementation of the new allocation system in the United States on October 18, 2018, patients requiring temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) have the highest priority, a shorter..
Read MoreAbstract Background: The use of simultaneous veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) with or without an Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) is a widely used tool for mechanical hemodynamic support. Endothelial function,..
Read MoreAbstract Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) efficacy is critically affected by the inflation/deflation timing. Balloon deflation may cause a sucking effect, and a steal phenomenon on carotid flow. Delaying IABP deflation..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction The intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is one of the most utilized cardiac assist devices. Patients receiving IABP therapy are typically managed in high acuity clinical care areas with..
Read MoreAbstract Due to the high treatment costs associated with durable ventricular assist devices, an intra-ventricular balloon pump (IVBP) was developed to provide low-cost, short-term support for patients suffering from severe..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: Simultaneous ECMO and IABP therapy is frequently used. Haemodynamic changes responsible for the success of the concomitant mechanical circulatory support system approach are rarely investigated. In a large-animal..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives Simultaneous mechanical (MCS) with intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) to (ECMO) is common in postcardiotomy (PCS). This study aimed to analyse the effect of concomitant ECMO and IABP therapy on the short-term..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives: Primary graft failure (PGF) is a common and devastating complication, despite the advances in perioperative treatment. We aim to evaluate the prevalence of PGF and its impact on survival..
Read MoreAbstract Background: The benefit of the combined use of an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) for postcardiotomy shock remains unclear. We aimed to analyse the potential..
Read MoreAbstract Importance Intravascular microaxial left ventricular assist device (LVAD) compared with intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) has been associated with increased risk of mortality and bleeding among patients with acute myocardial infarction..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives Despite the increasing utilization of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, the 4Ts and heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) Expert Probability (HEP) scores have not been validated in patients with suspected..
Read MoreAbstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in cardiogenic shock refractory to inotropic support and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support. Peripheral ECMO can lead to ventricular distention, and IABP..
Read MoreAbstract Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) technology is an established treatment modality for patients with acute cardiac failure. Advances in IABP technology have simplified use and reliability such that electromechanical malfunctions..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives To compare the outcomes of patients with postcardiotomy shock treated with venoarterial (VA-ECMO) only compared with VA-ECMO and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP). Design A retrospective multicenter registry study. Setting..
Read MoreAbstract Spinal cord ischemia (SCI) associated with aortic surgery is well-described; however, SCI after cardiac surgery not involving the aorta is an unusual and underappreciated phenomenon. The authors reviewed the literature and found..
Read MoreAbstract Aims: The haemodynamic effects of primary implantation of an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) versus inotropes in decompensated heart failure and low output (DHF-LO), but without an acute coronary syndrome, have..
Read MoreAbstract Cardiogenic shock is associated with high mortality. Patients often require temporary mechanical circulatory support. We aimed to develop a percutaneously implantable, assist device that unloads the left ventricle (LV)..
Read MoreAbstract ECMO is the most frequently used mechanical support for patients suffering from low cardiac output syndrome. Combining IABP with ECMO is believed to increase coronary artery blood flow, decrease..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: The intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and Impella are left ventricular unloading devices with peripheral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in place and later serve as bridging therapy when..
Read MoreAbstract Extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is growing in adoption and popularity, as demonstrated by the international registry maintained by the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO). While initially an adaptation of..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives We investigated whether intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) combined with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) was associated with favourable neurological outcomes for patients after the return of spontaneous circulation..
