Left Ventricular Unloading Using Intra-aortic Entrainment Pumping Before Reperfusion Reduces Post-AMI Infarct Size
We present the first preclinical data showing extracardiac LV unloading before coronary reperfusion using intra-aortic entrainment pumping decreases 28-day infarct size. Extracardiac unloading to decrease LV scar size may provide an alternative to transvalvular pumping with potential advantages, including reduced risk.
