Circulatory support with larger volume intra-aortic balloon pump vs. standard volume or no-balloon pump during high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions. A randomised study

摘要

Percutaneous coronary intervention in high-risk patients (HRPCI) is associated with increased risk of periprocedural complications such as hypotension and shock. Mechanical circulatory support devices may the bridge patient safely throughout the procedure and are often used in this setting.
