Effects 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 کاملEnhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP) Improves Peripheral Artery Function
27 BackgroundIn coronary artery disease patients, enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) 28 improves peripheral arterial function and nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, which have been 29 implicated in the pathogenesis of abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT). We sought to evaluate the 30 effects of EECP on outcomes of arterial function, glucose tolerance, and skeletal muscle 31 morphology in sub...
متن کاملEnhanced external counterpulsation as a new treatment modality for patients with erectile dysfunction.
Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a noninvasive treatment modality which can increase arterial blood flow in peripheral and coronary arterial disease. Several studies have demonstrated an increase in the flow of the internal iliacal artery and in carotid and renal perfusion during EECP treatment. We investigated the effect of EECP in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). Thirteen ...
متن کاملEffect of enhanced external counterpulsation on medically refractory angina patients with erectile dysfunction.
Patients with refractory angina often suffer from erectile dysfunction. Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) decreases symptoms of angina, and increases nitric oxide release. This study evaluated the effect of EECP on sexual function in men with severe angina. The International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) was used to assess erectile function of severe angina patients enroled in the I...
متن کاملThe multicenter study of enhanced external counterpulsation (MUST-EECP): effect of EECP on exercise-induced myocardial ischemia and anginal episodes.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess safety and efficacy of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP). BACKGROUND Case series have shown that EECP can improve exercise tolerance, symptoms and myocardial perfusion in stable angina pectoris. METHODS A multicenter, prospective, randomized, blinded, controlled trial was conducted in seven university hospitals in 139 outpatients wi...
