Abstract:
Percutaneous mechanical circulatory support (PMCS) devices are effective in the treatment of patients with cardiogenic shock and acute decompensated heart failure, as a bridge to the recovery of heart function or further treatment. The intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is now the most widely used PMCS. New PMCS devices including Transseptal device of Tandem-Heart, transaortic valve device of Impella and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) might provide more effective hemodynamic supports. Doctors should choose appropriate PMCS devices and their working modes, according to patient's clinical conditions, based on the working principles and hemodynamic effects of the devices, in order to achieve the best effects and help patients live through the crisis of diseases.
