Abstract Background For decades, the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) has been a reliable and readily available pillar of therapy for cardiogenic shock (CS). However, no clinical markers have been validated..
Read MoreAbstract Background Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation in the perioperative period of cardiac surgery is an auxiliary treatment for cardiogenic shock. However, there is a lack of effective prediction models..
Read MoreAbstract Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), which augments coronary blood flow and reduces cardiac afterload, is the most widely used temporary mechanical circulatory support (TMCS) device. It has been used in..
Read MoreAbstract We investigated echocardiographic and hemodynamic effects of intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) in 26 patients with cardiogenic shock on veno-arterial membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO). Our study demonstrated an 8.1% increase..

Read MoreAbstract Background The Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) is a widely utilized technique to provide circulatory support for critically ill patients with cardiac dysfunction. While IABP therapy offers clinical benefits, the..
Read MoreAbstract Background/Objectives: Brain ischemia is a frequent complication in patients undergoing veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (va-ECMO) therapy due to hypoperfusion, low oxygenation, and thromboembolism. While concomitant intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) therapy..
Read MoreAbstract Background The impact of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) on survival and successful bridging to heart replacement therapies (HRT) in patients with heart failure–cardiogenic shock (HF-CS) remains unclear. Objectives The..
Read MoreAbstract Background Anterior myocardial infarction standard of care prioritizes swift coronary reperfusion. Recent studies show left ventricular (LV) unloading with transvalvular axial flow pumps for 30 minutes before reperfusion (vs..
Read MoreAbstract Intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABPs) are commonly used circulatory support devices. Mesenteric ischemia is a serious and poorly studied complication of IABP use. Here, we examine six cases of mesenteric..
Read MoreAbstract Background The impact of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) on survival and successful bridging to heart replacement therapies (HRT) in patients with heart failure–cardiogenic shock (HF-CS) remains unclear. Objectives The..
Read MoreAbstract Background Postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCCS) in cardiac surgery is associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Beside other therapeutic measures (e.g. intraaortic balloon pump (IABP)), extracorporeal life..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Various cannulation strategies for venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) support are currently in use according to the clinical urgency and experience of the rescuing team. Although central..
Read MoreAbstract Background: This study aims to assess the outcomes and complications of patients who received veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support after cardiac surgery at..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has been increasingly used for refractory cardiogenic shock (CS). Although guidelines have downgraded the recommendations for intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) in CS, escalation from..
Read MoreAbstract Background The intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) technique plays a crucial role in providing circulatory support for patients experiencing hemodynamic instability. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety..
Read MoreAbstract Background Evidence supporting with unfractionated heparin (UFH) in patients with an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) to prevent remains limited, while bleeding risks remain high. Monitoring heparin in this setting with anti-factor..
Read MoreThis 2 hour web seminar is designed for healthcare professionals with a strong understanding of hemodynamics who will be directly responsible for the care of patients requiring IABP therapy. The..
Read MoreIntroduction Patients with the clinical and biochemical signs and symptoms of hypoperfusion secondary to cardiac failure or cardiac arrest carry high short-term mortality. Various mechanical circulatory devices have been developed to..
Read MoreAbstract Background There is limited evidence for the use of an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) in adult patients with a total cavopulmonary, or Fontan circulation. Case summary A patient in..
Read MoreAbstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has been increasingly used to treat refractory cardiogenic shock (CS) or cardiac arrest (CA) over the past decades. Peripheral VA-ECMO increases left ventricular (LV)..
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 The use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) has decreased in recent years due to negative outcome studies in cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction, despite its favorable adverse-event profile...
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 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 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..
