Single-Pump Techniques for Assisted Circulation in Cardiogenic Shock: Experimental Evaluation and Case Report

RESUMO

Acute cardiogenic shock or bridging to transplantation often involves the need for circulatory and cardiac support systems that are more effective than the intraaortic balloon pump. Biventricular failure, which is present in many cases, is generally treated with total cardiac replacement or with a complex of pumps and oxygenator that makes application difficult.
