Abstract The physiologic impact of pulsatile flow (PF) on end-organ perfusion during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is controversial. Using an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) to maintain PF during CPB for patients..

Abstract 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..

Abstract Background Femoral venoarterial (VA-ECMO) is widely used to maintain blood flow in patients with . However, retrograde blood flow increases left ventricular (LV) afterload during femoral VA-ECMO. Additional support by means..
