    Surgical removal of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) catheters is invasive. A new percutaneous technique offers a safe, rapid, and effective alternative for IABP removal, though pulmonary embolism risk requires consideration.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Medicine
    • Interventional Cardiology

    Background:

    • Traditional intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) insertion and removal require surgical procedures, posing a significant disadvantage.
    • Minimally invasive techniques for IABP management are highly desirable to improve patient outcomes and reduce procedural risks.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of a novel percutaneous technique for the insertion and removal of a specially designed IABP catheter.
    • To compare the hemodynamic efficiency of the percutaneous technique with conventional methods.

    Main Methods:

    • Initial clinical experience with a specially designed percutaneous IABP catheter.
    • Procedure performed at the bedside by physicians experienced in arterial catheterization.
    • Assessment of procedural simplicity, rapidity, safety, and hemodynamic efficiency.

    Main Results:

    • The percutaneous technique was found to be simple, rapid, and safe, performable at the bedside within minutes.
    • Hemodynamic efficiency was identical to conventional IABP therapy.
    • No specific complications were observed, however, two cases of pulmonary embolism were recorded.

    Conclusions:

    • Percutaneous insertion and removal of IABP catheters represent a promising alternative to surgical methods.
    • While generally safe and effective, the potential risk of pulmonary embolism associated with percutaneous removal warrants further investigation and consideration.
