[Counterpulsation by means of a new device with a pulsatile blood flow in open heart operations (author's transl)].
A new counterpulsation method in operations on an open heart is described. Clinical experience in the use of the new device in 124 patients, which also makes it possible to produce a pulsatile flow of blood in the system of extracorporeal circulation, testifies to its effectiveness. The authors claim that the positive changes in cardiac output, diastolic and systolic pressure, and coronary circulation are among the factors which cause an improvement in the final result of the operation in patients with severe valvular diseases and ischemic heart disease.
