Positioning an intraaortic balloon pump using intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram guidance.

چکیده
A 72-year-old man with an ejection fraction of 25% is scheduled to undergo elective coronary artery bypass graft using cardiopulmonary bypass. Because of the high-risk nature of the operation, the surgeon wants to insert an intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) before initiating cardiopulmonary bypass. An intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) is requested to ensure correct placement.

Prevention of Possible Embolus Following Intra Aortic Balloon Counterpulsation (IABP) Insertion by Transesophageal Echocardiography ( TEE )
Severe atherosclerosis of the descending aorta is directly related to atheroembolic events. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is a sensitive technique for evaluating such atheroma plaques of the thoracic aorta which may predict the risk of emboli. We describe a patient with severe intraluminal aortic atherosclerotic plaques detected by TEE while positioning an Intraaortic Balloon Counterpu...
متن کاملStroke after intraaortic balloon counterpulsation associated with mobile atheroma in thoracic aorta diagnosed using transesophageal echocardiography.
We describe a patient who developed embolic stroke after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) associated with intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) insertion. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) revealed marked irregular mass and disruption of the intimal surface of the thoracic aorta with overlying shaggy echogenic material on the intimal surface of the descending thoracic aortic...

OBJECTIVE The study objective was to evaluate the association between timing of intraaortic balloon pump insertion and outcomes in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. METHODS All patients aged 18 years or more who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery, cardiac valve surgery, or thoracic aortic surgery between January 2002 and December 2007 were included. Data were obtained from cardiac su...
متن کاملInfluence of Intraaortic Balloon Pump Counterpulsation on Transesophageal Echocardiography Derived Determinants of Diastolic Function
INTRODUCTION Intraaortic balloon pump counterpulsation (IABP) is often used in patients with acute coronary syndrome for its favourable effects on left ventricular (LV) systolic function and coronary perfusion. However, the effects of IABP on LV diastolic function have not been comprehensively investigated. Acute diastolic dysfunction has been linked to increased morbidity and mortality. The ai...
متن کاملIntraluminal projection of descending thoracic aorta and intraaortic balloon pump catheter examined by transesophageal echocardiography in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery.
The thoracic descending aorta (DTA) was examined in 57 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (41 men and 16 women: 63.0 +/- 10.6 years old) using two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography. An intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) was instituted in ten patients. A short-axis view of DTA was examined for intraluminal projection from the diaphragm level to the aortic arch level. In ...
