Popis: | Direct mechanical ventricular actuation (DMVA) is a non-blood contacting method of circulatory support that can be rapidly instituted for resuscitation. DMVA is superior to conventional methods (open and closed-chest cardiac massage) in providing reliable cardiovascular stabilization for resuscitation following cardiac arrest. Furthermore, DMVA has important advantages including rapid application, technical simplicity, and avoidance of blood contact compared to other resuscitation devices (cardiopuimcnary bypass and blood pumps). This review summarizes laboratory and clinical applications of DMVA. |
