P5.21 EARLY IABP INFLATION SUPPRESSES LEFT VENTRICULAR FUNCTION AS INDICATED BY WAVE INTENSITY ANALYSIS
Background: Timing errors during Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) support can be detrimental when interfering with cardiac function. In vivo hemodynamics and left ventricular (LV) function were monitored during premature IAB inflation, and the associated mechanisms investigated with Wave Intensity A...
