Objective To evaluate the role of intra-aortic balloon pumping(IABP) in high risk patients with acute myocardial(AMI).Methods The clinical data of all patients with acute myocardial infarction treated with IABP admitted into the first affiliated hospital to PLA General Hospital from January 2004 to May 2008 was collected.The efficacy of the IABP was evaluated. Results A total number of 23 patients with acute myocardial infarction were treated with IABP.17patients received revascularization therapy. Death rate was 30.4%.Conclusion IABP is safe in high risk patients with AMI who represented poor hemodynamic status or cardiogenic shock,and it can sufficiently stablieze the hemodynamic status,improve cardiac function and can decrease in-hospital mortality.
