Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump Rupture and Entrapment
Intra-aortic balloon pump is used frequently to support a failing myocardium in cardiac patients. Due to the invasive nature of this device, usage is accompanied by consistent risk of complications. Balloon rupture, although it occurs rarely, may lead to entrapment if diagnosis delays. A 78-year male who underwent cardiac surgery experienced balloon rupture and entrapment in the right femoral a...
متن کاملManagement of Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump Rupture and Entrapment.
While the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) itself has many useful and life-saving indications, it has a high complication rate, up to 30% in some studies. This report discusses the surgical removal and subsequent vascular repair in a patient with a ruptured and subsequently entrapped IABP and reviews the literature on the presentation and management of this rare but major complication.
متن کاملIntra-Aortic Balloon Pump Entrapment in a Nonatherosclerotic Common Iliac Artery.
Use of an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is helpful for maintaining hemodynamic stability in patients with low cardiac output and compromised left ventricular function undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. Although the incidence of complications has decreased significantly as experience with the device has increased, IABP use still carries a risk of complications. The most common compli...
متن کاملDeflation Timing Influences Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump-Mediated Carotid Blood Flow Reversal: A Case Report.
The patient is a 63-year-old man with stage D heart failure and a left ventricular ejection fraction of <20% who presented to the Houston Methodist Hospital with cardiogenic shock. As a part of his care, he underwent placement of an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP). The IABP settings were for the balloon to inflate with the aortic dicrotic notch and to deflate near the end of diastole. After as...
متن کاملIntra-aortic balloon pump for oesophageal dilatation.
We read with interest the article by Loubani et al. [1] regarding the use of intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABP) for dilating oesophageal strictures. There are fundamental reasons why IABP is not the instrument of choice for oesophageal dilatation, even in difficult cases. IABP was never designed as a dilator. Its function is to produce diastolic augmentation of coronary and systemic blood flow b...
