Abstract

Routine percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty catheters are adequate and demonstrate high success rates in balloon angioplasty with stable patients. Active hemoperfusion seems to offer an advantage in patients with hemodynamic instability. Active hemoperfusion provides myocardial protection during coronary interventions and can be applied in conjunction with routine angioplasty equipment. When compared with other devices demonstrating clinical utility in a supported angioplasty setting, this flow adjustable active antegrade hemoperfusion pump appears reliable, simple to use, cost-effective, and requires much less instrumentation than the more bulky CPS systems.
