Intra-aortic balloon pumping: seven years' experience.

W T Vigneswaran, I J Reece, K G Davidson

    Thorax
    |November 1, 1985

    Summary

    Intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) use varies, with a 27% survival rate in Glasgow patients (1976-1983). Major complications included leg ischemia, reflecting conservative IABP application and high mortality.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Cardiac Surgery
    • Vascular Surgery

    Background:

    • Intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) indications and utilization show significant international and inter-institutional variability.
    • This study reviews the application and outcomes of IABP in a specific cohort over a defined period.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) in 63 patients undergoing cardiac surgery between 1976 and 1983.
    • To analyze the timing of IABP insertion (pre-operative, intra-operative, post-operative) and its impact on patient survival and morbidity.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 63 patients who received intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) support.
    • Data collection included timing of IABP insertion, peri-operative outcomes, survival rates, and incidence of major complications.

    Main Results:

    • IABP was initiated pre-operatively in 9.5%, intra-operatively in 68.2%, and post-operatively in 22.2% of patients.
    • Mortality was high: 11 patients (17.5%) died in the operating room, and 35 (55.6%) died post-operatively despite IABP.
    • Survival at 6 weeks to 3.3 years was 27% (17 patients), with 17% experiencing major morbidity from ileofemoral arterial obstruction.

    Conclusions:

    • The conservative application of intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) in this center was associated with a high overall mortality rate.
    • Ileofemoral arterial obstruction represents a significant source of morbidity in patients receiving IABP.
    • Further research is needed to optimize IABP utilization and improve patient outcomes in cardiac surgery.
