Intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABC) was developed to assist the circulation in pump failure. Its use has recently been suggested to decrease or retard the extent of ischemia in normotensive patients with acute myocardial infarction. In dogs, the combination of IABC and phenylephrine decreased the extent of ischemia after acute coronary occlusion by 76 per cent, far more than IABC alone. The data suggest that increasing coronary perfusion is a more important factor than decreasing left ventricular afterload in this effect of IABC. |
