Mengxian Li, Liqun Hu, Lei Li
Abstract
The mortality rate of patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock is very high, and in recent years, intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation has been used more and more. It plays a very important role in improving left ventricular ejection, increasing coronary artery perfusion pressure and reducing myocardial oxygen consumption. This article reviews the development of intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock in recent years.
