Overview
Interventional Therapy
Intra-Aortic Balloon Pumping
- Can be used to achieve hemodynamic stabilization in the patient before definitive therapy[1]
- The intra-aortic balloon pump decreases afterload
- The intra-aortic balloon pump is inserted percutaneously through the femoral artery
- The distal end of the pump is placed distal to the aortic knob and the origin of the left subclavian artery
- For inflation of the balloon helium is used
- Inflation of the balloon should occur in early diastole, just after the aortic valve closes
- Deflation of balloon should occur in early systole, just before the aortic valve opens
- Proper inflation results in an assisted peak diastolic pressure higher than the unassisted peak systolic arterial pressure
- Proper deflation leads to assisted aortic end-diastolic pressure of approximately 10mm Hg lower than the unassisted end-diastolic pressure
Contraindications
Absolute contraindications for intra-aortic balloon pumping include:
- Dissecting aortic aneurysm
- Severe aortic regurgitation
- Large arteriovenous shunt
- Severe coagulopathy
Relative contraindications include:
- Severe peripheral vascular disease
- Recent thrombolytic therapy
- Bleeding diathesis
- Descending aortic
- Peripheral vascular grafts
