Methods: Some 153 IABP patients in the King Abdulaziz Cardiac Center(KSA) were random-ly assigned into two groups. Anticoagulation group( Group A) consisted of 71 patients who were given heparin intravenously with target aPTT 50 - 70 seconds. Non-anticoagulation group( Group B) consisted of 82 patients without intravenous heparin during balloon pumping. Hematological parameters including platelet count, D-dimer, Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and fibrinogen degradation products(FDP) were checked respectively at the point of baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours and 24 hours post IABP counterpulsation. Clot deposits on balloon surface, vascular complications from IABP including bleeding and limb ischemia were recorded.Results: Platelet count and PAI-1 level decreased at 24 hours and 48 hours in both groups ( P < 0.05) . D-dimer and FDP level increased at 24 hours and 48 hours in both groups( P < 0.05), but returned to the baseline level 24 hours post IABP removal( P > 0.05) . Three patients in Group A and 2 patients in Group B developed minor limb ischemia( P > 0.05). No major limb ischemia in either group. Two patients in Group A suffered major bleeding and required blood transfusion or surgical intervention, whereas no patient had major bleeding in Group B. Eight patients had minor bleeding in Group A, but only 2 patients in Group B ( P <0.05). No clot deposit developed on IABP surface in either group. Conclusion: IABP is safe without routine anticoagulation therapy. Selecting appropriate artery approach and early detection intervention are key methods for preventing complications.展开更多

In recent years, the preoperative use in patients with severe ventricular dysfunction presents itself as a great benefic strategy to the postoperative recovery. This paper aim is to evaluate the IABP post-operative benefit in patients with severe ventricular dysfunction. Methods: From January 2011 to March 2016, 125 patients underwent a coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass and preoperative IABP in Teaching Hospital of the ABC Medical School and Hospital Estadual Mario Covas. The inclusion criteria were the presence of severe ischemic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than or equal to 40%, estimated by Doppler echocardiography using the Simpson method. The preoperative LVEF was 30.25% ± 8.53% and the diastolic diameter of the left ventricle (LVDD) 67.75 ± 16.37 mm. IABP was installed approximately 15 hours before the surgery. Results: The patients required the IABP for 2.4 ± 1.58 days, and vasoactive drugs, 4.8 ± 2.12 days. We performed 3.2 ± 1.9 grafts per patient and the total length of stay was 07 ± 5.52 days. Cardiopulmonary bypass time was 67 ± 10.95 minutes and anoxia time, 46.4 ± 10.06 minutes. Twelve patients (9.6%) had pneumonia and four (3.2%), atrial fibrillation. We observed a LVDD reduction to 63 ± 16.26 (p = 0.068) and LVEF enhancement to 36.50 ± 16.86 (p = 0.144). The data were analyzed statistically according to the Wilcoxon test. There were no deaths. Conclusion: The initial experience of the authors with the preoperative IABP in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction suggests great benefit in post-operative recovery with im-provement of LVEF and reduction of LVDD.展开更多

There are no published reports about the use of IABP in elderly Chinese patients, especially for those over 80 years old. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical outcomes, influencing factors, and complications in patients 〉80 years old and requiring IABP. Methods We performed a retrospective study of 134 consecutive patients who received IABP therapy. Based on age, we defined two groups; those 〉80 years old and those 〈80 years old. Results The overall mortality was 41.8%. Patients -〉80 years old had higher mortality rates than those 〈80 years old (47.9% vs. 30.2%). Patients 〉80 years old had fewer successful revascularizations (45.8%) and more pulmonary infections (47.9%) than patients 〈80 years old (60.3% and 30.2%, respectively); these differences were statistically significant. The most common non-cardiac complication was pulmonary infection. Cardiogenic shock and pulmonary infection were risk factors for all-cause, in-hospital mortality, whereas revascularization success was a negative risk factor for the -〉80 years old patients. Conclusions IABP may be successfully and safely employed in patients 〉80 years old, having severe heart disease, with few complications. Patients 〉80 years old who need IABP therapy are less likely to have a successful revascularization and are more likely to develop pulmonary infections than patients 〈80 years old.展开更多

Pre-operative use of intra-aortic balloon pump has been shown to prevent this complication in high risk patients. The role of balloon pump in high risk patients has been questioned by our group. We modified the role of balloon pump in our patients, thus avoiding the conversion to cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods: 4063 off-pump coronary bypass surgeries were performed by a single surgeon in our center, over thirteen years. 130 intra-aortic balloons used between July 2002 and December 2015 were removed from the the-ater, once the distal anastomosis was performed. We studied this group of patients for—time and need for insertion, duration of balloon used, local insertion problems and survival. Results: Initially, we inserted intra-aortic balloons in high risk patients. We observed that, patients with low ejection fraction and patients with critical left main coronary artery disease were not the ones who actually needed balloon pump support. It was the patients who had ongoing ischemia, with preserved left ventricular function, and ST depression intra-operatively, who needed balloon pump support to perform complete anatomical revascularization. Conclusions: Intra-aortic balloon pump has helped us to position the heart without hemodynamic instability, thereby avoiding conversion to cardio-pulmonary bypass. This enabled us to perform off-pump surgery in virtually all areas of the heart, thus maintaining perfect hemodynamics.展开更多

The counterpulsation technique exerts numerous beneficial effects on systemic hemodynamics and left ventricular mechanoenergetics, rendering it attractive for promoting myocardial recovery in both acute and chronic HF. Although a recent clinical trial has questioned the clinical effectiveness of short-term hemodynamic support with intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP, the main representative of the counterpulsation technique) in CS complicating myocardial infarction, the issue remains open to further investigation. Moreover, preliminary data suggest that long-term IABP support in patients with end-stage HF is safe and may mediate recovery of left- or/and right-sided cardiac function, facilitating long-term weaning from mechanical support or enabling the application of other permanent, life-saving solutions. The potential of long-term counterpulsation could possibly be enhanced by implementation of novel, fully implantable counterpulsation devices.展开更多

However, little evidence is available on the optimal order of IABP insertion and primary PCI. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the sequence of IABP support and PC1 and its association with major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). Methods: Data were obtained from 218 consecutive patients with CS due to STEMI in Beijing Anzhen Hospital between 2008 and 2014% who were treated with 1ABP and PCI. The patients were divided into two groups: Group A in whom IABP received before PCI (n = 106) and Group B in whom IABP received after PCI (n = 112). We evaluated the myocardial perfusion using myocardial blush grade and resolution of ST-segment elevation. The primary endpoint was 12-month risk of MACCE. Results: Most baseline characteristics were similar in patients between the two groups. However, patients received 1ABP before PCI were associated with a delay of door-to-balloon time (DBT) and higher troponin I level (P 〈 0.05). However, myocardial perfusion was significantly improved in patients treated with IABP before PCI (P 〈 0.05). Overall, IABP support before PCI was not associated with significantly lower risk of MACCE (P 〉 0.05). In addition, risk of all-cause mortality, bleeding, and acute kidney injury (AKI) was similar between two groups (P 〉 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that DBT (odds ratio [OR] 2.5, 95% confidence interval [C/] 1.1-4.8, P=0.04), lABP support after PCI (OR 5.7, 95% Cl 2.7-8.4, p〈0.01), and AKI (OR 7.4, 95% CI 4.9 10.8, P- 0.01) were the independent predictors of mortality at 12-month follow-up. Conclusions: Early IABP insertion before primary PCI is associated with improved myocardial perfusion although DBT increases. IABP support before PCI does not confer a 12-month clinical benefit when used for STEMI with CS.展开更多

However, few studies have been done with regard to the clinical outcome and safety of IABP in assisting PCI in aged patients with ACS. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the safety of tABP in different age groups of patients with ACS.Methods Data on 292 ACS patients who received IABP-assisted PCI in Shenyang General Hospital of People's Liberation Army were retrospectively analyzed. More specifically, the successful rate, mortality and complications associated with the treatment were compared between the senior (〉60 years old) and the non-senior (〈60 years old) groups of patients. Results The attack rate of non-ST segment elevation ACS was significantly higher in the senior group than in the non-senior group (38.8% vs 21.1%, P 〈0.01). The incidence of the IABP-associated complications was not significantly different between both groups (P 〉0.05).Conclusion The clinical outcome and safety of IABP-assisted PCI in the elderly patients were comparable to that for the non-elderly patients.展开更多

Until now,there is no unified conclusions about the incidence,characteristics,risk factors and the prognosis of IABP related thrombocytopenia.Methods In this study,the data of patients with ACS undergoing PCI and IABP were retrospectively analyzed.All enrolled patients were divided into thrombocytopenia group and non-thrombocytopenia group according to the occurrence of thrombocytopenia after insertion of IABP. The baseline data of the two groups were compared,and the possible risk factors of thrombocytopenia and their impact on prognosis were analyzed by chi-square test and logistic regression analysis. Results Sixty-two patients were enrolled in this study. The rate ofIABP associated thrombocytopenia was 25.8%(16/62)of all patients. Older agewas an independent risk factor of IABP associated thrombocytopenia(OR:3.625;95% confidence interval:1.016-12.935;P=0.047). The incidence of TIMI bleeding events was higher in thrombocytopenia group[75.0%(12/16)vs. 43.5%(20/46),P=0.042]. The rate of in-hospital death was similar between the two groups[18.8%(3/16)vs. 17.4%(8/46),P=1.0]. Conclusion IABP associated thrombocytopenia occurs in 25.8% of patients with ACS undergoing PCI and correlates with increased TIMI bleeding events. Older age may predict IABP associated thrombocytopenia.展开更多
文摘Objective: To investigate if intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP) is contraindicated without anticoag-ulation therapy. Methods: Some 153 IABP patients in the King Abdulaziz Cardiac Center(KSA) were random-ly assigned into two groups.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the safety of tABP in different age groups of patients with ACS.Methods Data on 292 ACS patients who received IABP-assisted PCI in Shenyang General Hospital of People's Liberation Army were retrospectively analyzed. More specifically, the successful rate, mortality and complications associated with the treatment were compared between the senior (〉60 years old) and the non-senior (〈60 years old) groups of patients. Results The attack rate of non-ST segment elevation ACS was significantly higher in the senior group than in the non-senior group (38.8% vs 21.1%, P 〈0.01). The incidence of the IABP-associated complications was not significantly different between both groups (P 〉0.05).Conclusion The clinical outcome and safety of IABP-assisted PCI in the elderly patients were comparable to that for the non-elderly patients.

文摘Background Thrombocytopenia is a common complication of IABP. Until now,there is no unified conclusions about the incidence,characteristics,risk factors and the prognosis of IABP related thrombocytopenia.Methods In this study,the data of patients with ACS undergoing PCI and IABP were retrospectively analyzed.All enrolled patients were divided into thrombocytopenia group and non-thrombocytopenia group according to the occurrence of thrombocytopenia after insertion of IABP. The baseline data of the two groups were compared,and the possible risk factors of thrombocytopenia and their impact on prognosis were analyzed by chi-square test and logistic regression analysis. Results Sixty-two patients were enrolled in this study. The rate ofIABP associated thrombocytopenia was 25.8%(16/62)of all patients. Older agewas an independent risk factor of IABP associated thrombocytopenia(OR:3.625;95% confidence interval:1.016-12.935;P=0.047). The incidence of TIMI bleeding events was higher in thrombocytopenia group[75.0%(12/16)vs. 43.5%(20/46),P=0.042]. The rate of in-hospital death was similar between the two groups[18.8%(3/16)vs. 17.4%(8/46),P=1.0]. Conclusion IABP associated thrombocytopenia occurs in 25.8% of patients with ACS undergoing PCI and correlates with increased TIMI bleeding events. Older age may predict IABP associated thrombocytopenia.
