Abstract

Intra-aortic balloon pumping of the auxiliary circulation is evolving. The pressure generated during the auxiliary circulation was experimentally investigated. A balloon (A. 30cc, B. 35cc, C. 40cc) was inserted into the test circuit with a pulsatile flow of 60 bpm. Pressure measurements of 50 waveforms, at the distal (P1) and proximal (P2) ends of the balloon, were recorded.The pressure generated by the balloon during the auxiliary circulation was checked.
