Acute hemodynamic effects of enhanced external counterpulsation
In the United States, there are about 17.6 million patients suffer from symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD), affecting 7.9% of adults ≥ 20 years of age.1 An estimated 10.2 million patients have angina, and 500,000 patients will develop new angina pectoris each year.1 A subset of angina patients are categorized as refractory when symptoms continue despite optimal medical therapy and revasc...
متن کامل[Coronary flow with intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation].
Figura 2 Con balón de contrapulsación intraaórtico. Paciente de 78 años al que en una ciruǵıa de revascularización coronaria se le realizó un by-pass de arteria mamaria interna izquierda a arteria coronaria descendente anterior (ACDA). Estas im agenes se han obtenido mediante eco-Doppler intraoperatoria y muestran el flujo en la ACDA. En la figura 1 se muestra el flujo en la ACDA sin apoyo del ...
متن کاملAn update on enhanced external counterpulsation.
The development of advanced revascularization techniques has resulted in the growth of a subset of patients with coronary artery disease who are nonrevascularizable and are considered to have refractory angina. Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) has been developed for the management of these patients with chronic, refractory disease. Evidence has shown that through improvement of vascula...
متن کاملEffects of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) on myocardial perfusion.
PURPOSE To evaluate whether enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) exerts an effect on myocardial perfusion. METHODS Eleven patients with angina were studied before and after 35 sessions of EECP treatment. Myocardial perfusion was quantified with positron emission tomography and intravenous 13N-ammonia at rest and after dipyridamole, by means of a two-compartment mathematical model. CONC...
متن کاملEffects of enhanced external counterpulsation on carotid circulation in patients with coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a noninvasive method previously shown to improve measures of myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary artery disease. However, the concomitant effects of EECP on large and small arterial properties have been poorly examined. In a randomized controlled study, we investigated whether arterial stiffness and resistance of the carotid circ...
